What is racism?

I don't know if this is the thread to post this item, but it does show how difficult it is to deal with certain groups of people.
The shop owner last week, grabbed a kid who he says steals on a regular basis, the aftermath is quite exciting.
By the way this is an old established suburb of Perth, it isn't in the outback somewhere.

I hope this sort of behaviour doesn't become the norm, it will certainly discourage people from operating shops. :eek:

I saw the video. It is clear to me that everyone that caused the damage is on CCTV and can be identified. The question is WHY isn't the Western Australian Police arresting all those perpetrators? When your own Police force doesn't do something then that is the bigger problem. You need to ask the Police why they aren't doing something about it.

I don't think so.

When people talk of Indigenous cricket tournaments (exclusive by definition) , a simple statement of fact acts as a red flag to the SJW's.

In the face of the current anti white racism, it is not a racist statement, especially when the "perps" are more than happy to state that it is also okay to be black/brown/or whatever.

Yumi said "you're sounding quite racist..." and rightly never backed down. Yumi never said KAK was a racist but instead suggested one could join the dots to her spoken words as to the direction KAK was heading down.
Unfortunately KAK began her argument with an unverified claim that the marchers had done "zippo" on issues which were not part of the "invasion Day" theme. To begin, it was in irrelevance.
It was also poor form to blame indigenous communities for poor policing, and worse still to suggest the marchers would be better off policing themselves, which was the implication. It's equivalent to proposing that if I joined any march I should instead be combating domestic violence o_O.
Commentators who lead with their mouth are asking for it to be smacked - not real smart KAK :2twocents.

Is that all she said "you're sounding quite racist."??? I had 4BC/2GB on yesterday at lunchtime, the Chris Smith show (same guys who had Ian Plimer on his radio program). They were calling for KAK to sue Yumi Stynes. People (like @wayneL :p. ) were calling in swearing. The biggest beat up I've heard. I thought Yumi Stynes must've alleged KAK was a paedophile or something.

I was more making reference to the way the media, blow up what in reality is a very small issue, I feel the public would be better served by the media highlighting and promoting a positive signal, rather than constantly looking for the opportunity, to highlight the negative aspects of indigenous reality.
Everyone knows their plight is severe, changing the date of anything wont change the reality, just reinforce that they have every right, to continue on the same self destructive path.
The media would do far better getting of their ar$es, and going out and finding good news stories, of indigenous individuals who have broken the self destructive cycle and show there is a way to improve their lot.
Just my opinion.
 
I listen a lot the local aboriginal and country music radio fm here in Brisbane, and there are wonderful positive radio show hosts, but indeed some segments and too many of them are pure victimising rants ,fake history which can only lead to hate and racism, while whole population are kept under welfare and worse in a welfare mentality.if the street is dirty, you clean it.if the house is broken, you repair it..we are first responsible of our own destiny, irrespective of colour or status...
 
This article makes you feel proud to be Australian, both parties understand that what was seen as acceptable behaviour 20 years ago, isn't today.
So what do they do, apologies, express their regret and move on still friends.
Great story and great Aussies, it is their attitude that makes Australia special.

While you are having a go at the "whole population" of indigenous Australians, I am going to have a go at your "average" english language skills which allows you to get away with saying some very vague statements.

SP it wasn't acceptable 20 years ago, just the power imbalanced allowed for the cringeworthy behaviour.

Kamahl said he was humiliated that's a bad thing surely?

It was not acceptable when viewed from a 2021 perspective I agree but reality is this took place during the 1980's and 90's on a TV show which was extremely entrenched in Australian culture at the time.

There'd be very few in Australia at the time who could honestly say they'd never seen the program at least once and it was widely assumed in unrelated contexts that pretty much everyone would "get" any passing reference made to the show and its segments and characters without needing further explanation. It was as entrenched as Richie Benaud commentating the cricket and Molly Meldrum with music, indeed Molly ultimately ended up as part of the Hey Hey cast.

Literally millions had the opportunity to call it out when it went to air, it was one of the most watched programs on TV at the time and aired nationally. It wasn't something which happened behind closed doors that pretty much nobody knew about.

I agree it was wrong, extremely so, but it's at least plausible that Daryl and the others were genuinely ignorant, having attitudes which reflected society at the time. Ignorance isn't good but it's a different thing to intentional malice.

Go forward a third of a century from now and no doubt someone will look back at some of what's currently being aired on TV at present and point out how completely unacceptable it is. A key difference though is that it's much harder to say you didn't know in 2021 versus saying you didn't know in 1987. Very much harder. :2twocents

Battle of Bamber Bridge England

Jun 24, 1943 – Jun 25, 1943

On this day in 1943 black American soldiers faced off with white American Military police during World War II on British soil. Yes you read correctly black American soldiers had to fight their own white American soldiers, while in England, where they were fighting for the world.

Why? Because the English town of Bamber Bridge in Lancashire was not segregated so they treated the black soldiers like all other races, aka blacks were free to eat, drink anywhere, BUT back in America segregation of blacks and whites still existed. So essentially the American army went to someone else’s country and demanded they adopted America’s racist practices

So when the American Military police found out that their own black American soldiers were drinking at the same pubs as white people they went in to arrest them. The people in the town got mad about the treatment of the black soldiers and decided to then turn their pubs into “BLACKS ONLY DRINKING PUBS” the very opposite of what was taking place in America with their WHITES ONLY businesses.

Of course, this pissed off the American military so guns went blazing, and when word spread back at camp that black soldiers had been shot, scores of men formed a crowd, some carrying rifles and by midnight more American military police arrived with a machine gun-equipped vehicle, so the black soldiers had no choice but to get rifles from British stores while others barricaded themselves back on base, so now it was American white soldiers versus American black soldiers. This lead to the death of one soldier, injury of 7, and 32 convictions.

Back in America, the battle was hushed up because they didn’t want the country to find out that they were fighting their own soldiers which would anger the black population and weaken the morale in the country.

Tarquin Smythe - Quora
 
Recently, a white woman in a monkey mask and other white people abused and assaulted a black candidate and his security detail in an election campaign.

But wait....

The black man is California governor candidate, Larry Elder (and from the 'hood bro), representing the Republican Party, and his white attack is a Democratic Party supporters.

Therefore, this cannot be racism, as Larry is a black white supremacist.

(And this is why aliens won't visit us)
