Aboriginal Australia

Like what though?

They seem to have everything they need on a community. They have a school, a retail store, Doomadgee Rural Hospital, a post office, police station, airport. They even have a music studio.

They are starting infrastructure projects aimed at an upgrade to the water dosing and monitoring systems and a risk assessment of one of their reservoirs as announced by the State government in 2017.

In 2006 Aboriginal Development Benefit Trust (ADBT) and the Doomadgee Shire Council invested in the Doomadgee Roadhouse, a 100% Aboriginal owned business. The ADBT invested $1.5 million to establish the Doomadgee Roadhouse. The Doomadgee Shire Council contributed $300,000 for fuel infrastructure. Although they contributed cash to the project the Shire is not a partner. It employs 14 staff, 12 of whom are Aboriginal.

They've invested in accommodations for tourists in the form of one-bedroom kitchenettes with ensuite.

What more should they do?

Perhaps you should talk to some of the Police that have served there and judge what has been "achieved"......

And that has what to do with land development??

The place is a shithole...and the people behave like a bunch of apes.....

It’s called ‘inter generational trauma’, billy. Caused to some extent by whitey.

I guess I should say "sorry"....pft.....

Billy,

I don’t believe you should say “sorry”. You didn’t do it. But I have met some lovely aboriginal people and if youre going to broad brush them as “apes” I’m going to be in your face about it.

Well Im really going to loose a lot of sleep over that.....

[Nicole]

I don’t give a shit. If you’re going to broad brush human beings as “apes”, I’m going to call you on it good buddy.

I also don't like the continual use of the term "monkeys" that some use with reference to anyone black.

That sound you can hear is me snoring....

A more realistic and truthful review of the film Sweet Country (2017 film). I'd recommend people read it before commenting of Flekkie's fantasy.

"Sam Kelly is a middle-aged farm worker in the outback of Australia's Northern Territory some time after the end of the First World War. His employer, Fred Smith, a kindly preacher, agrees to lend Sam to a bitter and abusive alcoholic war veteran named Harry March ( who has been affectedd by his involvement in the war) on a neighbouring farm to renovate the latter's paddock fences. After sending Sam out to round up some cattle, Harry rapes Sam's wife, Lizzie. Sam's relationship with Harry quickly deteriorates."

Thanks for the Wikipedia link. It's basically what I said. Good angelic abo and the bad crazed war veteran, who happens to be white.

Only when referring got Somali monkeys.
That's because, well, they are in fact less than monkeys.

I guess it's an insult to monkeys to brand Somalis as monkeys.
The only other trek that applies is vegetables, probably more applicable she comparing IQ.

Ok, let's call Somalis, mobile vegetables, happy?
