Wait, there's a curfew for indigenous people in bars in Australia? What the hell? Whose idea was that?! Someone from Australia explain plz, this law sounds racist and mean. >:|

Well, this is news to me. Another reason to hate our State Premier, then :/.
I've heard of the curfew in which all bars in Melbourne would close at 2am, but it's been a massive failure. The intention of the lockout was the lessen the violence among the streets of Melbourne, but the curfew seemed to have increased it. So much for the "Indigenous Reconciliation" we had last year :/. Due to the limited amount of support Australia has for its Indigenous citizens, a lot of them turn to alcohol, drugs or abuse. Health cover and general support for Aboriginals is limited as well, not to mention an unintentional "zoning" of the group. I think the lockout towards Indigenous people is borderline racist, but it is a fact that many Aboriginals do turn to a lot of alcohol because of the oppression society has upon them. They also do get rowdy, but to target them specifically for a lockout is ludicrous. What about the Redneck Aussies (bogans)? What about other ethic groups, some of which are notorious for bad behavior due to drinking? In conclusion, Brumby, your time is over. You'll be replaced in the next state elections. |
LOL BRADY, did you copy this article from the link you posted?
Check it again. I think you might have been had somewhere along the line. This is most definitely not true. Quote:

Can't I troll a continent without you people looking at the evidence?

I'm sick of YOUR racism. This is at least the second piece of anti-Australian rhetoric you've posted in a year.
My people will have your head >: |

Sir my only complaint was that the Moderator was not upholding the principles of not trolling.

Look, if you guys are doing this as some juvenile 'joke' then tell me now because all I can see here are moderators abusing their positions and throwing about insults. |
DN, this is usually the point where someone will ask if you're new here.
But we all know you're not. Are you just having a particularly thickheaded day? Also, let's be honest: the "rule" against trolling hasn't been enforced since 2004. |

Actually, we do enforce the trolling rule, the problem is that there's hundreds of bed-wetting gaylords here who think that insulting someone is trolling. It's not, it's insulting someone.
Trolling is needlessly attacking someone out of context in such a way as to lessen their board experience. If someone went into every thread you posted in just to post "DN you're a fucking gaylord" with no reference to the topic, they'd be trolling. If someone once or twice said to you "DN, you've completely missed the point of this thread and as such, you're a fucking gaylord" that would be insulting you, against which there are no rules currently or historically. Unprovoked, persistant attacks is trolling, the occasional insult or even persistant insults, if they are based on a person's posts and pertinant to the thread is completely allowed and in some cases, actively encouraged. In other words, we'll start enforcing "Trolling" when you lot learn what it is, deal? |
Can't you just close this thread? It serves no purpose. Sure it's not "trolling", but it's retarded.

Once I had to use a plastic kiddy chair at a pub because it was so packed, it was trivia night so I didn't feel like standing around like a clown. It was very racist towards my arse as the chair was difficult to sit on.

Let my abbos go, Joe.
