It makes me sick. At university today their was this friggen yank who had just transferred from LA. I heard him giveing some Aussie\'s some crap because he was saying how all australians are slaves and thats all we will ever be and that we are all criminals and that we are owned by britain and he compared us to slaves of the romans and said how australia is the most insignificant country in the world and that we are all disilusioned thinking we have any worth.
Man he pissed me off i nearly went up to him and punched the living daylights outta him i am so pissed off at the moment its not funny i cant believe there are people actually like that and he was only like 20 or something, and he was saying how australians are rednecks and that we have sex with dingo\'s. man I am so friggen angry its not funny
Sorry, i know this is a rant and its probably really hard to understand cause i am so angry but I thought it might be something that alot of people have something to discuss as not many people go to that forum and i knwo this is an issue at the moment.
man i am so angry.
-
Why get so angry at what a moron says?
When I hear stupid people say stupid things I laugh at them.

^^^^ i\'m with this guy.
-
It was just so rude, almost like he had such a hatred for australians.
-
Racism is all over the world man I know it pisses you off but it\'s how you handle it that keeps you from lowering yourself to their point of ignorance. Besides there\'s a million earthquake referrences you can use...
-
Lol, the guy\'s a frigging idiot. But if he really thinks Australia is so bad, why did he transfer there?
-
Racism is one of the things I can\'t stand either. I\'m an easy going type of person, who can put up with a lot of things, but racism is where I draw the line at.
And it doesn\'t matter whether it\'s white people agains black, black people against white, one nation against another......
It\'s WRONG, whoever is commiting it.
-
i woulda snapped him.. Then Said "u don\'t like it here, F@#K off to your own country"
But i\'m just a aggressive prick with nothing else to do.
-
Man don\'t worry about people like that. Sadly as long as there are people there will be prejudice, either racially, socially, etc. Sad but true.
-
What the hell\'s wrong with Aussies though? I mean, it just didn\'t make sense. Its like \'Are you for real?\'

Don\'t even get me started. ;)
Just kidding, I think Aussies are teh win!
-
yeah, oz = cool
:)
-
some aussies are dicks.. i\'m one of them.. but there are ones that probably go to USA and do the same thing.. most racisim is taught. People don\'t just hate a county and its people for the hell of it.. Unless there mindless morons.
-
I\'ll tell you what is wrong with Austrilla. You guys have to many frickin\' dangerous animals and dangerous places. Where else does a 60ft Squid wash ashore? Where else is there so many damn poision reptiles? The list goes on and on. It just isn\'t right. There is some weird goverment crap goin\' over there. Like experimental X-file animal type stuff.
Oh and you got Steve Erwin and he gives me the creeps.
:eek:
-
Only “people” I have a problem with is Asylum seekers, they can burn for all I care, there slowly ****ing up our country.
And how can a yank talk about Aussie’s being criminals?
-
steve erwin scares aussies too.. anyone putting there finger up arses of animals has to be screwed in the head.
but we are trained to kill..... :evil:
-
Steve Erwin Rules.
-
I didn\'t even know their was racism towards Australia.
-
neither did I. Owell everyones that\'s not white and English can go to hell :D
-
well Steve Irwin would have taken care of that guy.
Steve:
Here we have a prime example of an aggressive American Man animal, they are one of the most dangerous creatures found in nature. Now the American Man animal as suggested by it\'s name is not a native species, it was introduced here by tourists who for some reason stayed around. Now what I am going to do is to sneak up to it, and jam my finger up it\'s butthole, getting passed it\'s lethal fists might be hard and working my finger through it\'s thick coat could prove a problem. And remember folks, do NOT attempt this by yourselves, if you ever see the American Man animal call the animal away takers or whatever.
Anyhoo, yeah f*ck that guy, if he didn\'t like it why was he there in the first place.

I was so confused by your story that I have to guess that you didn\'t hear the whole thing. It just doesn\'t make sense. Even if the guy was a total nationalist pr1ck (which is possible), he probably would not be smart enough to study at a foreign university, and also dumb enough to tear apart your country like that. I mean, if an Aussie did that in the middle of an US college campus, he wouldn\'t have to wait very long for a couple of fraternity guys to kick the sh*t out of him. I assume it\'s the same in Australia... why wouldn\'t it be? Did you see anyone working him over at the end of the conversation?
I think maybe he was having a conversation with some Australian friends, and they were having fun insulting each other\'s countries. I know from experience this is a common pasttime for foreign students, but it\'s all in good fun. The other possibility is that he was just screwed by some representative of the local bureacracy, and he was blowing off steam. Also a normal occurance when you study in a foreign country. That doesn\'t make it right, but it doesn\'t make him a racist either. If he hated Australia that much, he wouldn\'t have spent all the money to go there.
I\'m willing to admit that we have some jerkoffs travelling the world misrepresenting the United States, but I\'m just not sure that was the situation here. Let\'s hear "the rest of the story" as Paul Harvey says. :D

holy crap :lol: seems i skipped over that park vapor lol that is so great....you watch, now some stand-up will be using that line

Hey, if it means anything, I\'m sorry for that d!ck\'s behavior. He\'s a poor example of a representative to America and should be sent to an international prison or something like that; he doesn\'t deserve to go to another country to badmouth people and he shouldn\'t deserve to come home.
I think Aussies are nice. I have a handful of relatives who live near Sydney and one cousin said that there was a package he was expecting that got sent to the wrong people and that person who received it actually drove an hour to my cousin\'s place just to make sure that the package reaches him. I don\'t know if that\'s a nice person doing a random act of kindness or if it\'s with all Australians. But man! That\'s something you wouldn\'t find in the US!

This mate is right. :D
-
Coredweller,
II am pretty sure he was just an ass. He seemed to fully beleive everything he was saying. The people he was talking to evidently walked off afterwards.
Yes, I swear I would have toppled him on the spot but there were too many people around.
-
I guess you didn\'t learn anything from wrestling with guys the first time. ;)
-
MMMM,he\'s lucky I wasn\'t there or I would have punched him in the face and told him to f@*k off home.
And for pickles not everyone who went to Australia was a criminal,some were guards and some went by choice.
Aussie\'s have sex with dingo\'s????? no I don\'t think that\'s funny.
Maybe It loses something in translation????
What about American\'s molest brown bears???? is that funny???
-
man i aint saying everyone was a criminal all i said was its was a prison island at one point in time i was making no judgment on the character of the people who live there now i was just stating the reason for which that sterotype started in the first place
we\'re a little defesive about being called a criminal?maybe just defensive about being an austrailian
-
your not saying everyone is a criminal,dude you just called it a prison island???
-
You obviously don\'t know anything about your countries histroy skyrider.

The description you\'ve given makes me think he was one of those crazy people who stands on the streetcorner screaming at traffic. This couldn\'t be the case, could it? I\'m just trying to imagine the scene in my mind, and it\'s still not making sense to me. I think either you exaggerated what he said, or you didn\'t understand the whole context of it, or you didn\'t take in the whole situation. I don\'t understand why someone would stand in the middle of a crowd of Australians, tell them they\'re a bunch of slaves and criminals for no discernable reason, and then the people would just walk away. That\'s not "being an ass" that\'s insane... unless there\'s more to the story.

More than you.

Coredweller,
Its very bizarre I know, thats why I was like \'Is this dude for real\'? Its like he didn\'t even know he was being so offensive, almost as though he thought there was nothing wrong with his opinion.
-
The thing is it\'s people like Bozco and pickles that make people like this guy your talking about.Just cause the poms put a prison on Australia it becomes a prison Island??? The aborigines were here for a long time before us yet it was nothing until the poms made it a prison island........ So what they had some pom prisoners here.They also had a heap of people who did jack shit.Also I bet there is more prisoners and prisons in America..... Maybe we should change it\'s name to the prison continent.
-
Oh I can see this thread being closed in the near future....

What\'s a "pom?"

It\'s what Australians call us English.

Stop being so sensitive.
What Pickles said is a fact and that was more of a slam against England than Australia.
-
Bash it up your arse! Australia has always been more than a prison island.

If you knew so much why did you act like it wasn\'t a prison island? Thats what it originally was. Jar O\' Pickles and I weren\'t making fun of you any for it so just chill. Thats just the way it was. And comparing me to the guy Racer described is quite funny.

Don\'t single the English out. In those days EVERY major country did it. The French used to send thier convicts to French Guyana. You never seen the film Pappillon?
The USA used to send slaves to the south Americas.
-
I didn\'t compare you I said it\'s people like you that get these stupid ideas going in there heads.And I\'ll say it for the 1000000th time this country was always more than a prison Island!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
People paid money to go there for a fresh start.You understand?? not every one was a criminal.

Why people like me? I\'ve never thought of Australia as a mere "prison island", in fact, I don\'t know of anyone who does.

Debating maturely isn\'t your strong suit. "Its people like me who get these stupid ideas." Was the island used for a English prison? So that idea isn\'t too stupid. And if the island is used for so much why don\'t you just back your comment up. You know, use facts.
-
Ok, you people need to learn how to friggin\' read.
Skyrider...
You\'d best learn some manners around here.
Jaye...
I\'m not debating which country was more guilty of crimes against humanity.
You two better get it through your thick heads.
You can\'t argue facts and in no way did Pickles insult Australia.
I didn\'t single England out so don\'t use that as a retort against me.

Move on...

OK maybe that came out bad,people like you tell people like the guy racer was talking about that Australia was used for prison.Then he thinks it\'s correct to tell people that\'s all australia is,he has kids tell\'s them that Aussies came from criminals.His kids tell his mates.......... do you see what I\'m saying?
Do you want there names?
-
Call my country a prison Island and my manners will go very quickly...
-
Thats not my problem. It is a fact that Australia was used for a prison. Does that make a person in Australia now any less of a person? No
-
Excuse me?
I\'m not defending that moron nor am I agreeing with him.
I\'m merely telling you to stop being so overly senstive, just because Pickles mentioned an embarassing fact about your country. And he didn\'t insult Australia. Read what he said and you\'ll see that he insulted England more.
Love your country, fine.
Just don\'t erupt over mere words.

Yes it was Australia with a prison,not prison island.

Well Britain\'s whole use of the island was for a prison.
-
There were people from britain who paid to go live there,you think they paid to live in a prison??
Don\'t think the aboriginals would have called it a prison at the time??would they??
-
Your taking the terms to literal. It wasn\'t just one giant prison. Its just where Britain took criminals and what not.

u know, poms, yanks, panheads, skips, all in the end = only 1 thing.. Humans.. So if there\'s some dood bagging your country. BEAT THE LIVING PISS OUTTA HIM AND GET OVER IT.. :)
-
Skyrider... your argument is so weak... Your trying so desperately to defend your country... Look at America... As an American I can say we killed off thousands of Indians just for us to settle in it... Oh well... Its history....
Go have sex with a dingo, and I\'ll molest a bear.
-
we cant just beat away our problems...
Or can we???:laughing:
-
umm even america wasn\'t a based country. You guys did have a war of inderpendence against the brits remember....
Hey, Here\'s teh bloody meaning
Declaration of Independence (Amer. Hist.), the declaration of the Congress of the Thirteen United States of America, on the 4th of July, 1776, by which they formally declared that these colonies were free and independent States, not subject to the government of Great Britain.
So there. :D We all came from the same place..
-
OK, maybe I am confused, but is this racism? Prejudice, yes, but aren\'t you all the same race? I dunno. Maybe these paint fumes from painting my bed are getting to me.

People can be racist to whites, I\'ve seen it happen.

Video, that is an excellent point.
Yes, we are all from the Brits - Yanks, Aussies, Canadians. These three big countries were all colonised by the Brits.
So, no, its not racism?

-
If you all want to really know why Australia was used as a prison colony it was actually because when Captain Cook discovered Australia in 1770, he seen it as a desolt place (he thought it was all desert, but didn\'t realise it was so big). They sent ex convicts over here to start afresh. They basically didn\'t want the convicts back in English society.

There were some who had not done anything wrong and chose to come here.But yes we did have convicts and ex-convicts.The point I am trying to get across is just cause the poms put a prison there doesn\'t make the whole country a prison.There were people there long before a british prison.
Wasn\'t America used to send British convicts to as well??

oh yeah, I hate white people the most....

I\'m not saying it is.....
Just that vapor and bozco called Australia prison Island when America had a similar thing happen and yet America is The land of the free.
I have nothing against America or Americans!! Just ignorent people who don\'t listen.

if people would have used the word "ignorance" in correct context just one time in this shitty thread, i wouldnt close it, but......
