  1. Ah, and who defines them? How many generations from immigration are people considered to be part of the land? Is there a formula?
     
  2. Australia is multicultural. The federal government does this. I suggest you look up Peter Dutton who is the minister for home affairs
     
  3. As for ownership of the land that is in indigenous hands.
    Recently Uluru (Ayer's Rock) has been closed for climbing.
    Permissions are needed by the tribal groups there have to be held.

  5. I'm familiar with this rock, it has unique striations, as if from when it entered the atmosphere.

    As for ownership of ANY land on this planet, you only control it for as long as you can keep someone else from controlling it. Which is why the very term "indigenous" is preposterous in the long run. In the short run, it's just politics. A way to curry favor.

  6. The aboriginal population in the NT where this rock is own the land
     
  7. Good for them. Pointless otherwise. It's a rock. A seriously cool rock, sure.

    I toured the petroglyphs in Albuquerque to see 12,000 year old graffiti written by people who seemed to really enjoy themselves. Very buzz-worthy.

    Well Pro-Wrestling does tend to capitalize and promote every stereotype known to man

    I noticed it but I think it was done subconsciously to disconnect the sport from the announcer's heinous words.

    Ancient Alien Enthusiasts suggest that, underneath Ularu is an alien base station or that Marduk resigned underneath from Egypt when he went into hiding.

    Now, I haven't yet begun to look into Aboriginal mythology, but I will not be surprised if I find the same details on the spirit world as we find in other mythology and religion. :p

    I think that some of the, mostly, old guys like Cosell and Jimmy The Greek have gone away. But there are, obviously, too many racist still around. The bad news is that this president has allowed them to surface. The good news is that now we know just who they are. I saw a poll just yesterday that showed how the different Democrat candidates would fare against Trump in Wisconsin. Wisconsin, if you recall, was one of Trump's 2016 states. Well, that poll had Trump ahead of Biden, Sanders, Warren and Buttipeig
    I, totally, agree! Punks shouldn't be allowed to smart mouth without fear of retaliation. I remember when the recession in the late 70's caused GM plants to close in the Midwest. Oklahoma built a non-union plant in the OKC area. I was manager of a large Ford Dealership and a lot of our mechanics got better paying jobs at the new plant. Well, then they were conned into voting in the union and were replaced by out-of-work union folks from up north. Those folks came to Oklahoma and still had their northern attitudes. I remember them, when annoyed, saying 'F-you' and shooting the finger. Well, in Oklahoma, back then using the F-word or shooting the finger was considered, by law, an assault and you were allowed to respond with a battery. A lot of the punk union workers from up north were getting their asses kicked. When enough came down to work at the GM plant, and also the oil fields, they managed to get the law changed. Worse thing that ever happened in Oklahoma.

    Oh, and almost forgot one of my favorite expressions,."Don't let your alligator mouth overload your little lizard ass"!
     
  17. It kinda sounds like a cooking term. Or maybe it's from porn, a position or deviation maybe. Or that might be Wurstling (German sausage porn)!
     
  18. I'm familiar with this, sort of...........

    Here's 18 Southern-isms That Everyone Should Know Pretty Well

    1. “Don’t you get too big for your britches.”

    Mom used this when we started thinking a little too highly of ourselves.

    2. “You are barking up the wrong tree.”

    You're wasting your time.

    3. “Don’t get your feathers ruffled over nothing.”

    This was a way of telling us to quit worrying.

    4. “”Pretty is as pretty does.”

    Beauty comes from the inside.

    5. “It’ll all come out in the wash.”

    Everything will be okay in the end.

    6. “May as well be talkin’ to a fence post.”

    It means they pretty much thought you were stupid.

    7. “You make a better door than a window.”

    Most often heard while standing in front of the TV.

    8. “Full as a tick.”

    Ugh

    9. “I’m madder than a wet hen.”

    When your mama said this, you knew you better get outside fast!

    10. “Load your brain before you shoot your mouth off.”

    Think before you speak.

    11. “Those are as rare as hen’s teeth.”

    Hens don’t have teeth.

    12. “You’ll catch more flies with honey than vinegar.”

    Quit whining, be sweet and you’ll be more likely to get your way.

    13. “You can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig.”

    Putting lipstick on Sara Palin doesn’t change what it is.

    14. “He ain’t gonna break his back carrying his brains.”

    He be stoopid (yes, with 2 os).

    15. “Don’t let your alligator mouth overload your hummingbird butt.” (I think I like your version better)

    Don’t talk the big talk if you can’t back it up.

    16. “If buts and ands were pots and pans, the whole world would be a kitchen.”

    No excuses.

    17. “They can stick it where the sun don’t shine.”

    Yea, heard this a lot.

    18. "Well bless your heart"

    Go fuck yourself

    When they come to take you away in the night because you exercised your freedom of speech and offended the wrong people. It won’t be the outraged activists pounding at your door. It will be government officials just “following orders”
