Commercial TV operates as a profit-making business first and foremost.

'Bums-on-seats' in the nation's lounge rooms with people watching the commercials is what makes the industry survive.

Born to a full-blooded mother. I don't know abou her father but it cannot be claimed she has "more white in her":

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/cd/f4/a4/cdf4a492394f2f911f2384061dafe...

Give me a break. You claim to have lived amongst aboriginals, shes at least half white.

Where did i claim to have lived amongst Aboriginal people? You shouldn't just make stuff up Ian.

And her mother is full-blood. I said i didn't know about her father.

But what would you call her Ian? If you saw her on the street? Would you call her an Aboriginal or would you call her a white person? How do you think she is perceived?

ANd she is darker than that photo shows. She is shot in harsh light in that photo. It is obvious from the reflection on her skin.

I would look at her like that and think she was attractive, its obvious she is mixed but unless she was behaving in an anti social manner I wouldnt identify her as aboriginal.

Unless she was acting in an ati-social manner?

You're just a pig-ignorant racist, like Honky.

Not ignorant at all. Just observant.

Definitely ignorant. And racist.

Racists are always ignorant.

I recognise the antii social behaviour prevalent amongst Aboriginal people. how is that racist to tell the truth? Are you claiming that Aboriiginal people dont commit far more crime in proportion than any other group Mothra? If so thats an extraordinary claim and you will have to back it up, although it will be fun to see you try.

The anti-social behaviour you describe is prevalent amongst all demographics with limited educational , social incision opportunities and employment opportunities. It is not a symptom of being Aboriginal.

This is blatantly evidenced by the large number of Aboriginal people who do not behave badly.

I don't assume somebody with dark skin is a Aboriginal because they are behaving badly and 'more white' if they are not, as you claim to do.

Which makes you a racist. A pig-ignorant racist.

Forgiven.

Not at all. Just observations.

And what would i be throwing my toys out of the cot for? I'm running easy rings around you and Ian. I haven't even had a raise in my pulse rate. Getting bored to be honest.

No one claimed the anti social behaviour was a symptom of being Aborignal . only that it is far more prevalent amongst Aboriginal people. I can see how you are "running rings around me" by arguing a non existing premise.

You said, correct me if i am wrong, that you wouldn't recognise that woman who is clearly Aboriginal as Aboriginal unless she was behaving badly.

Bit of a back-pedal Ian?

I know what you said was silly but you have to own it.

Channel 9; It's not really worth it though. It was English made. Guy spent 7 months with a branch of the KKK and uncovered tremendous amounts of stupidity.
