 There are people molly-coodled on all sides, not just the
 aboriginals. And NO, I don't agree with it. I never said anywhere in
 my ramblings to anyone that I did. My whole argument from the
 beginning was only about land claims. And I still very strongly
 belief that they, meaning the aboriginals, have a very good reason,
 and more then enough evidence, to at least try to get the government
 to acknowledge that they where dispossessed of their country by white
 settlers.

 Someone in the government, or white community must have had a guilt
 complex for years, otherwise, why are the aboriginals treated
 differently to the rest. Are they different to us, except in colour.
 If so, why.?

 Killing anymore WHAT.? If you mean aboriginals you are mistaken.
 Even way back then many whites, including government officials tried to
 stop the killing and mistreatment of aboriginals. But even in them
 days the mighty $$$ (pound stirling) was more important then human
 lifes. Nothing much changed since then in regards to that. 

 AS>> But I would vote for the reversal.

 DD> shoot the fokkers?

 For sure :)

 Which fokkers *do you* mean? ;)
