What really grinded my gears was the fact people had no idea what was going on as you read one place that he had passed and another one saying it was a hoax.Quote:

yeah, was reading the internetz as it unfolded. i can only guess the twitter generation has made everyone real cautious in reporting anything as gospel.Quote:

Hate to be the guy who brings the bad news but we are as a country quite racist. Living overseas for a year really opened my eyes on our backwards Australia actually is with regards to equality and social issues.Quote:

Same as homophobia really.
Bogan families who cry all over Facebook and run to the press when they are done wrong - see today about the kid not invited to the Year 10 formal.
OK - mistakes get made, deal with it in the proper channels and get an apology.
Will be on ACA next ffs.

hate to break it to you cultural cringers but australia would easily be in the 80th percentile of least racists countries.

The thing that BLOWS MY MIND is obviously the family knew that there would be a year 10 formal... are we honestly supposed to believe that they they only knew he had missed out AFTER the event?Quote:

What gets me about this guy is, by saying he can't live in Oz due to racism he is implying that the UK is far better in this regard, which in my experience is hugely untrue. The fact that the BNP has made inroads to the British political scene is a testament to the underlying racism that occurs over there. My experiences from the 5 years I spent in the old dart would suggest that the UK is more racist than Australia.
maybe he and his wife could go to india, where there has never been any form of racism whatsoever, and no institutionalized caste system to speak of
Herniated L5-S1, no cartilage in knees and blepharospasms.
In all fairness to the bloke, they were going to deport him over jumping into a river. Had to make something up, and it wasn't his first defence.
Regardless of this particular case, many posts in this thread re-enforce exactly what I was talking about.
Yeah...wait the phucker discovers the BJP.Quote:
