which state are you at? I was at Victoria, Melbourne and I
encountered quite a few incidences while studying there. I can give
you 2 examples. I was walking one night and stopped at a traffic
light, got a car stopped in front of me, and spat at me. Luckily
the distance the car and me were not near. the other example was at
city centre, where I was taking a tram. got this lunatic standing
at the tram stop, saying out loud, asians go home.
They should also go home as the land belongs to the aborigines.
they took away the land from the natives. look who is talking.
A car spat at you?
Lunatics are lunatics. There'll always be some nutjob
saying something of the sort; catch the same guy at the same tram
stop next Tuesday and he'll be yelling about how the banks are run
by satanic cults, on his Thursday special is a two-hour rant about
flouride in the water - don't forget to tip your waitress,
folks. If you take that as proof of racism, your skin's way
too thin and you're one of the contributors to this inflated charge
of racism.
I've been in Melbourne since 1994 and over the years I've stayed
in Hawthorn, Camberwell, Brunswick, Doncaster, and Eltham. I
now work in the city, but while I was at uni I had jobs in
Nunawading, Wantirna, Werribee and Flemington. In all that time
over that range of suburbs, I've never had a single problem.
Either someone up the really loves me, or you're just suay.
Personally I believe we make our own luck.
