Injustice? There are all kinds of injustices far more damaging and newsworthy than Doomagee....lets get some perspective eh>?
Im far more concerned abiout justice for thiose who have no control over theyre lives such as children and animals.Doomagee chose to be a drunk, he knew his environment and how blackfellas get roughed up in jail..he wouldnt be the first to have been touched up freediver!! He knew the score, ran the gauntlet anyway, he paid the price.
Noones saying its right..but IT IS life for Indigenous pple.
I think we could be more instruemental even on this board, with the way we respect Ind. pple....I have seen them referred to as all kinds of dreogatory names on here (dehumanising) and yet these names are left as is..'Coons' is the latest one. and connected to a very offensive pic.. Let consistency be the norm and we may get pple to care about what happens to pple like Doomagee.
The pic I refer to Is on the posters thread and depicts a black man lying drunk on a pavement. THAT IS DEHUMANISING!!!!!
Im amazed that moderators let this kind of thing be posted and only remove it after someone complains, when its clearly defamatory.
The pics of a boob and fat pple are asked to be removed but the 'coon' pic is OK?
