Now, I’ll be the first person to tell an Aboriginal joke.  In saying that, I’ll also bag the shit ou of Kiwis, Asians, Brits etc.  That doesn’t mean I hate them.  I don’t think so anyway.

Everyone knows, the Aboriginals have a pretty bad reputation here in Australia.  Why?  Well, it’s more racism than anything.

Compared to “the white man”, Aboriginals are no better, or no worse.  All I can base that on is the few that I know, who are hard working and friendly.

But that doesn’t take away the fact that there are still some deadshits out in their communities calling for equal rights, but still demanding more benefits than the average Australian white person should have.  That’s another story.

The problem is.  While racism exists, anything bad that one Aboriginal does, will automatically label all Aboriginals as the same.

I’m not talking about crimes, I’m talking about being a deadset wanker.

11-year-old Jessie Du from NSW won the Australia day design competition with Google.  This meant that users of Google voted her logo design the best.  And it very much represented Australia in everyway, and included the Aboriginal flag.  Great.

However, the Aboriginal flag is a copywrited piece.  Meaning, permission is needed to use it.  In this case, when Google seeked the permission, they were denied, due to the fact that they wouldn’t pay enough to use it.

Now there are plenty of Aboriginal people who want this flag displayed next to the Australian national flag.  Many want it to be the national flag, and many want it incorporated into the national flag.

So why the fuck would you disallow Google to display it on the front page, and the one day of the year that celebrates Australia?

Greed.

“It’s customary for anybody using it in a commercial situation to (pay) a fee component.  It’s not about what I wanted. It’s about the process.

“The prizes had been issued before I’d been contacted – that put me on the back foot, in a defensive manner.

“They didn’t make me an appropriate offer.”

It’s not what he wanted, but they didn’t make him a good enough offer?  This bloke is a fucking deadset idiot.  He’s managed to contradict himself in one sentence.

One needs to ask.  Does this bloke give a fuck about the flag, or is he more worried about the cash he can make from it.  I wonder how the greater Aboriginal community feels about this clown?

Here’s the two designs side by side.
