It isn't like if they vote yes they will be allowed on the Indigenous gravy train! He's just sucking up to them to try to get their support FOR NOW but once the referendum is over Pearson will go back to treating them like second-class citizens because they aren't Indigenous, the only difference being he won't regard them as badly as northern Europeans!

My parents came to Australia in 1954, after experiencing the horrors of the Greek Civil War, which was in many ways, much worse than the WWII German occupation, because brother was fighting brother. Father was fighting son. Family member was killing family member and the atrocities were much worse than anything under the National Socialists. They were looking for a refuge for their children so that we would not have to experience the horrors of war. They were so appreciative of everything Australia offered them and the welcome they were given by Australians that they were amongst the first in their Community to take out Australian Citizenship. How many migrants have come to Australia gladly leaving the ethnic hatred, rivalries and wars behind them to live in peace and seize their opportunity for prosperity. Are any of those journalists earning their keep. Is there a single one of them comparing Noel Pearsons statements in his address to the National Press Club against say, those of the Balkan warlords who committed so many criminal atrocities. Australia is at Peace Noel. We’ve generously given you over $500,000,000.00. to fix the problem in your own community. What was the result? What did you achieve? Instead of playing the ‘Big Man’ in Canberra, why don’t you take these journalists on a tour of your own back yard and explain ‘What You Did With Over Half a Billion dollars. The housing, the violence, the despair, the school attendance, the sexual assault, the incarceration, the suicide rate. What have you achieved?
