In 2017 South Park aired an episode where a statue of Columbus was torn down.

Back then it was satire.

Was thinking same thing.

Hey BC you are a bit of an old Freo boy, you know the Esplanade there was quite a few pioneer statues down there, a few have been re labelled with a new narrative, although I don't really agree with the contents of the re lable I think its a lot better than tearing them down, let people make their own minds up, also the Captain Freo one was removed ( apparently he had a dodgy rape allegation ) but I was thinking exact same thing about C Y O'Connor , wont be long before they find some dirt on him and tear him down.

Apparently Sir John Forrest ( kings park) , Capt Stirling and J S Roe are in the firing line this weekend with the protest and cops will be on guard at them.

All because of something that happened in a mediocre yank city.

Stand the Test wrote: True these statues are of people who were significant in history.

And now history will record the significance of them being pulled down. What’s the big deal?

I am sure if someone had said to a slave trader ‘that’s my dad, he is part of my history, don’t ship him off like a piece of meat’ the slave trader would have said ‘get fucked son’.

And we are worried about a statue of the cunt being pulled down. Jesus.


The bloke saying that's my dad don't ship him could well have been the one doing the selling, Africans had slaves and sold them to traders that's how it worked.

I don't know the answer to that bazza but if the numbers in this article are correct then that would be something to riot about. www.reuters.com/article/us-africa-slavery-nigeria-idUSKCN1UX1NF
Victorians still laugh at West Aussies because of the way we bailed out the vfl and then allowed it to be called it the AFL!

Yep ...Its an African Tradition, they had them for 1000s of years and just sold them to the Arabs and later British French Dutch Danes Spaniards et al

And still doing it locally.

FFS the slave trade ended centuries ago, we all get it, war were fought over it ages ago,,,wtf has it go to do with Floyd?

What is dangerous for our country is the absence of leaders that stand up and tell the truth about what is happening.

The sanctimonious liberal lefties are using the USA "Black Lives Matter" unrest to encourage thousands of people to take to the streets at a time of the greatest health crisis in our lifetime, when the "Mandatory Code of Behaviour" applying to the action of every individual & business has enabled us to miss a bullet.

Just belt out the statistics and create a "view" that somehow WE are responsible for the 432 indigenous deaths in custody since 1991.

The Left are desperate to label us all "racist” and for no other end than to convince gullible young kids and the general population to get out on the streets and cause destruction and chaos because "the cause" mandates the unlawful behaviour.

Not a single Aboriginal inmate has been murdered by a police officer in Australia since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody in 1991 a fact conviently ignored by the ABC and SBS.

The Australian Institute of Criminology reports are a good read.....

(1) Apprx 10 Aboriginal inmates die in the Australian prison system each year, at a rate BELOW Non-Indigenous prisoners.
(2) 58% of Aboriginal deaths in jail are due to natural causes mainly those on long term sentences.
(3) 37% die from suicides/drug overdoses
(4) The rest being 5% from fights and other causes.

Of the 10 deaths each year 6 deaths are related to police chases which are included in the stats!
