Too rude

[Too rude. Too crude. Too lewd.]

Don't you hate rude people? They yell at you and then just bugger off.

I've had a lot of this in my life - people seem to think that because I am different to others that I can be treated differently.

My tribe was treated poorly for decades by the people who invaded this land, some may say that they still are, hopefully the injustices of the tribe are coming to an end.

Why do people think that it is their right to come online, take potshots at me and then scurry off into the night like a rat running down a drain pipe?

I'm happy to give time to people I don't agree with. I told a mate that when Turnbull became opposition leader I am happy to listen to what he has to say but won't necessarily agree with it.

Unfortunately, what I've heard from Turnbull so far is more of the same from Nelson - the man who wasn't making a connection with voters.

But at least they allow people to make their opinions and respond. And they don't yell at you for nothing!

I tell you what is sad?

[Droopy was a poor sad old dog]

...it's people who bash people verbally. Calling them names, etc.

In my day (which is still today) people had a basic respect for everyone.

Some people say that respect needs to be earnt. I say that it is a courtesy.

What I can't stand is people who swear and taunt people when there are thousands of other words in the English language.

I am a kind person who treats people with respect. I like things to be fair and people to be fair back as well.

What I can't stand is self rightgeous people who think that they are king shit and that I am below them and should do all they demand and get nothing for it.

My grandmother may have been a slave, but that doesn't make me any less a person and doesn't make me a slave also.

The Aboriginals have had the vote for some time now, we are full citizens of this great country and have been accepted as Australians (despite being the first Australians).

It's time for people who have this complex, to hide behind anonynimity and yell and abuse people and then when they see them in real life, to start and think about who they are hurting.

Life is short. Life can be tough. Life is hard enough without belittling others.

Let's all get along. I know I've had enough shit in my life without having more.
