How cool is this, whoever wrote this should be the next PM !

What a brilliant idea....

Message from a hard working Aussie

I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to earn that pay cheque, as I work on a mine site on a Kalgoorlie (WA) construction project, I am required to pass a random urine test, with which I have no problem.

What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a Centerlink Payment because I have to pass one to earn it for them??

Please understand - I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do on the other hand have a problem with helping someone sit on their backsides drinking grog & smoking dope.

Could you imagine how much money the Government would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a Centerlink Payment ?????

Please pass this along if you agree or simply delete if you don't.

Hope you all will pass it along though, because something has to change in this country, and soon!

i got this the other day....

NO OFFENCE INTENDED TO ANYONE....

I found this quite interesting.....

Proud to be a white Australian .

Someone finally said it. But how many are actually paying attention to this?

There are Aboriginals, Torres Strait Islanders, Kiwi Australians,

Lebanese Australians, Asian Australians, Arab Australians and boat people from all over the place.

And then there are just Australians. White Australians, ordinary

Australians, who love their country. Australians who don't really care about the skin colour of others - until they find themselves on the wrong end of abuse because they happen to be white Australians.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. You call me 'Australian Dog', 'White boy', 'Cracker', 'Honky', 'Whitey',

'Caveman'.

And that's OK. But when I call you, Blackfella, Kike, Towelhead, Sand-African American, Sheep Shagger, Camel Jockey, Gook or Chink, you call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the Aboriginal suburbs such as Redfern and Muslim and Asian suburbs such as Lakemba, Bankstown and Cabramatta the most dangerous places to live?

You have Invasion Day. You Have Yom Hashoah. You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.

But if we had a 'White Pride' Day, you would call us racists.

You want us to study Aboriginal history and indoctrinate us to believe that we are ruthless invaders. You want us to say sorry for something we did not do. But, because we want to teach history as it happened, we are racists.

If we had an organisation for only whites to 'advance' OUR lives. we'd be racists.

If we had a university fund that only gave white students

scholarships, we'd be racists.

There are many indigenous organisations that are only open to

Aboriginals. Are there any organisations that are restricted to whites only? Of course not, because if there were, we would be called racists.

Australia has a flag that represents everybody. Aboriginals have a flag that represents only them, but they don't think that's racist.

However if white Australians dared to have a flag that only

represented white Australians and white athletes who won an Olympic event ran around draped in such a flag, they would be condemned as racists.

If you are not white, you can march for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer shoots a Muslim gang member or beats up a Lebanese drug dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.

I am proud. But you call me a racist. Why is it that only whites can be racists?

Let's see which of you are proud enough to send it on...

[Shano3000]

truer words were never spoken.

But, but...but Multi-cultural societies work, they do, they're beautiful happy places....i'm sure they are.

Atleast I did hear someone say that once a long time ago...so it must be true right?

Way too much us and them, It's a social and cultural problem that is enabled and expanded by the media.. from light entertainment, movies and news. Restricting the level of American content would be a help. Lots of people simply reflect what they see and hear everyday on the tv ect.. It's a pretty poor example of how to live a good life. Shit they even show sitcoms about drug dealers now.

What a joke.

[mesmerized]

they even show sitcoms about drug dealers now.

What a joke.

hey, don't knock the show weeds, that's a mad show

tolerance is a nice idea, but it will never work. prejudice and discrimination will always exist. being judgemental is something that alot of us try not to be, but no one can help it, it's human nature.

couldn't agree more with the centrelink urine test idea, would make alot of lazy bastards contribute to society instead of mooching off it

[NORBY]

agree with the racial shit

[buggor34]

Way too much us and them, It's a social and cultural problem that is enabled and expanded by the media..

embedded by the media?.... its not to hard to have a look around on your lunch break and see exactly what its talking about. "Give me a smoke you white dog!".

LOL

They should do it.

Even tho I would have to be tested, which would suck (not that i have any illicit drugs in my system to hide), the overall outcome would be well worth it.

[adznight]

Yeah I couldn't agree more with the racial stuff Troy, people need to GET THE FU(K OVER IT! It's gone waaaaay too far. If you are dark skinned why be offended by the term "black", I'm certainly not offended by being called "white", they are colors and that's it, we are all the same on the inside! They are JUST WORDS. Sometimes I feel people are unhappy if there is not something to complain about...

[Ronin 09]

i don't give a fcuk Troy.

tell me what the 20B is going in

[ylwgtr2]

no....get fcuked

[DogKnight]

Its sad but true. People will and do discriminate against other races. I was treated differently when I was overseas because I was white. Pretty much experienced racism first hand for the first time in my life. And I see it here a lot. My partner is Sri Lankan so naturally she is brown. I see people treat her rudely at times and ill walk up for the same thing a minute later and if they dont know we are together, I get different treatment.

But yes, those that are overly sensitive about words like brown, black in relation to their skin colour need to get over it. Its not a bad thing unless you think thats the case.

[funkymonkey]

um... the australian flag actually represents colonial heritage (hence the scottish, english and irish crosses on it). was a big part of the whole republic debate n so on.

things that irritate me about australian "diversity":

people talking out loud in their native tongue in public places... asian's (and I mean curries and asians, as they're both from the same continent) in particular. Its common courtesy to talk quietly if you have to use your native tongue, as not everyone around can understand what in the world you're screaming at them.

african/arab/indian youths who try and emulate american "gangsta" ways of life. The reason they're so ghetto over there is because they're poor, have no centrelink style govt help, and must resort to violence and crime to get by or drugs to escape reality. The parents of these poser gangster kids here are hardworking people who have migrated from their countries, given up everything to give their kids a better life and this is how they pay them back?

White people who assume that because I've got brown skin, that I don't have communication skills. Trust me, I'd gladly break off some Shakespearian sonnets while drumming some sense into that close minded head of yours.

White kids... for f**k sake... parents... beat them. Kids from ethnic backgrounds are scared to step out of line because of the fear of the beating they'll receive, or the shame from not being respectful to their parents. Its taught from an early age and embedded in them. I'm sick and tired of screaming kids in shopping centres having a tantrum because their mum isn't buying their desired chocolate yoghurt, or swearing at their parents with no sense of remorse. Beat the living snot out of them and teach em what the chain of command is, and what happens when you question that authority. The worst part is that these same kids go to school with well mannered, respectful kids and teach them that its OK to say "f**k you mum".

People who can give out the insults but not take it back. I'm glad most aussies (all colours) are light hearted enough to make racist jokes and not get offended with similar comebacks. What shits me are the idiots who think its gods will that ethnic people aren't fluent enough in popular australian current affairs or have a firm enough grasp on the english language to belittle them back. This means when you make a comment about Murali chucking, I'm allowed to taunt you about Shaun Tait being a cheating, chucking scumbag.

2 right brother.....

i got a beating when i was a young kid - a swift clip around the head or a kick on the backside never gave me any side-affects

and the racist stuff - it stupid

im a christian, and i could be left to hang if i were over east and got 'caught' speaking dorogatory comments about, say, how Allah is not god (for example)

but yet its fine for other religions to proclaim religious holy wars against white america (which was based on christianity)....as an example

it all becomes a bloody knee jerk reaction.....its like we as the stereo-typical white christian based person has done something wrong in the past

[VB-]

WHITE POWER!!!!!! lol only jk ylwgtr2 and funkymunky are spot on the money

i'm not racist, i just watch colour TV, so i can tell the differnece

Parents lost the legal right to discipline their children with anything more than a stern voice and a wagging finger years ago.

Give them the backhander they deserve and odds are the little shits or some do-gooder would report it leaving you with an assault charge.

It's a shit law and it really is detrimental to their development as you said, it's one of the building blocks towards knowing right from wrong - action-consequence ect.

p.s don't tell me Googleye Googaleyedian doesn't chuck he's throwing darts!!! darts I say

Googleye Googaleyedian ain't got shit on Slingshot Shaun

[DogKnight]

Not being able to hit your kids is stupid. I got belted when growing up and I turned out fine (so I think). I really think hitting chuildren isnt that bad within reason. Eg: a smack on the bum with your hand or wooden spoon. It really teaches good discipline.

[DivHunter]

Googleye Googaleyedian ain't got shit on Slingshot Shaun

Maybe so but at least it's not a physical impossibility for him to have a legal bowling action

couldn't of said this better myself!

The thing that is missing these days is discipline, once this generation is working, i think the no smacking laws will be abolished, or our country will crumble.

The thing that really gets to me is that i seem to find immigrants treat us like shit, the whole "we paid to be here" mentality. Shit, i've had family fight wars(and die) so you could be here, show this great nation some respect! So many areas now resemble third world ghetto markets- Footscray, Clayton, Springvale, Glen Waverley to name a few! So many people who come here, or been born and raised here have an elitist attitude, where everyone SHOULD be f**king equal.

I'm going to stop now, as I could write a book on the topic, but I'll put it this way- It won't be long before I'll be racist and proud of it, And the groups it will be aimed at will have no-one to blame but themselves!
