[QUOTE="BLR, post: 203072"] [size=2] The thing about the 'Stolen Generation' at the time is that it was in fact for the percieved benefit of the Aboriginals. The Aboriginals still cannot handle modern life in a large part and the 'Stolen Generation' was a government excercise to nip this problem at the bud, after all, despite what the bleeding hearts will tell you Aboriginal life both then and now is a circle of destruction almost. If the Australian government were not involved in a badly conceived effort to allow the Aboriginies to assimilate in society they would have simply done what the early colonists did in Tasmania. Canada apoligised AFTER Australia for a similar situation with thier native peoples, are they more racist then us? Australia gives significant financial help to the Aboriginals yet it's hard to get them to use it correctly without abusing it. PS. ginger, stop trolling for gods sake, Australians have a grudge for being put on one of the most beautiful lands on the Earth, yeah right, come down one time, you'll see why so many English come down here every year. It seems all the 'convict' gibes come from UK jealousy that they are stuck in a dreary old place while we live it up in a bloody great country.[/size] [/QUOTE]
