Nope, you're butthurt because your demographic was unfavourably represented.

Unbelievable coming form you, but there it is.

What's more, you do it all the time


Not at all - I simply pointed out the reality of unequal treatment.



Bahahahaha!

The irony!

When and where have I ever treated a niqqer, chink, slope, dago, eyetie, wop, spick, musso or other outlander unequally?

How are those demographics treated unequally?  Speak up - stop and take five deep breaths, get hold of your mounting aggression, and  please explain?

You're beyond ridiculous.

How were you treated unequally by a gag that baby boomers are buying up all the real estate?

Bullshyte. Ungrateful GenXer .... always someone else to blame.  Roll Eyes


Baby Boomers: Good wages, plenty of jobs, cheap housing, safe societies. It is only migrants from non-white countries and aborigines of this Baby Boomer generation that had it more difficult than their contemporaries.

And I was not blaming other people.


You certainly were blaming other people ... a generation of people.

As for your below statement I'd say you actually wouldn't have a clue ... in fact it's bs.

I was going to let this pass with a "I am not blaming the previous generation for anything. I was just saying that they had it easier than my generation". Then I was going to sum up with the fact that my parents were the generation before mine, obviously. So, I hold no hatred for them and their contemporaries of the 1960s and 1970s.

But, I was wondering why you think it is "bs" that the non-whites and aborigines of the Baby Boomer generation did not have it as easy as their white contemporaries?

Australia has become so expensive that people can't afford children anymore.
Instead - couples just raise little white fluffy dogs and pet vehicles.

The Governments (both) love that women are out working and not staying home raising children - its good for 'their' Economic pockets.

It took Mum and Dad 15 years to pay off a $20,000 loan for the home they live. Three children. Low living expenses. Yeah, I know what it was like. But, heaven help them if they were to pay off a $150,000 loan for a home these days, even with low interest rates. Kids or no kids.

Mainly drug dealer related. Knife to the throat. Getting shot at. Even getting shot. Police assuming that I am a potential serial killer during the time that Leonard Fraser was on the prowl. Treated with contempt by former high school teachers over relationship issues I had with them prior to graduation. Needing to fend for myself when they decide that the rumours about me need action to remedy the situation.

The things I have done for the country include routing the drug dealers in some areas. This lead to a downturn in crime for a while. But now other drug dealers have moved in to take their place. I have helped catch criminals who were hero-homicidalists, but unknown to the public until I figured them out. I have helped with psychological techniques to identify behaviours that have clued investigators into dealing with crimes that have stumped them. I saved the life of a soldier, back in the late 1990s, when schitt hit the fan around town. I prevented a few rapes of teenagers with diversionary tactics against the potential likely rapists. And I have been acknowledged by authorities that I have potentially saved the community $140 million dollars since 1995, in halting unnecessary expenditure with various ideas that have been implemented.

That is "confrontational experience" in both good and bad examples.

What?! Not "all" of the generation?


are you trying to tell us you resent your demographic being represented by negative stereotypes?

So it's not the principle you object to, just who it gets to be applied to. Namely you and anyone like you ... and not Muslims, Aboriginal people, brown-skinned people, LGBTQ people, women, or any representative of any particular country, while we're at it.

Grap agrees. That makes two of you. Anyone else? Gordy? Setanta?




So.... errrrh... which PART of that generation would you like to blame?  Grin  Grin  Grin


Which of the "not all Muslims" do you have a problem with?

But i see my point sailed completely over your head.

It wasn't just a gag about buying up real estate.

Every generation before had it harder than the next.

Why is that different for non whites and aboriginals?
