It’s pretty poor that the uncle has come out and said it’s cultural when it’s not and many other Aboriginal people have come out and said as much.

Should be prosecuted just like others
Exactly. These guys think otherwise:
Miss Gunter said wombat was a regular delicacy for Aboriginal people in the region, however the traditional way for an Aboriginal person to hunt a wombat was with a spear, before cooking it and eating it.
"I was not happy with the video, he never went to an elder in Ceduna or Yalata and never asked if he could stone that wombat," she said.
"You do not stone the animal and make it suffer, it is not right and doing that in my community, he needs to pack his bag and go."
Alan Gunter, who is also from Ceduna and works as a nationally certified interpreter and cultural advisor across South Australia based in Adelaide, said what he saw in the video by no means represented traditional Aboriginal culture and appreciation for the land and animals.
"Everything I am seeing from stolen generation people is that 'it is part of culture' - that is false," he said.
"For them to represent those of culture, saying to brutally torture this animal and to say that it is culture, is offensive to those who represent culture personally and professionally.
"It won't be accepted by traditional people by no means."

This guy's uncle probably holds a lofty position or influence in the FWCAC. The whole "it's my culture" thing is bullshit. Even if it was, it wasn't hunting, it was a thrill kill. Look at the ****er's face and what they said... doesn't fit with the hunting narrative at all.
 
To do that though relies on calling it as it is and calling those out who say it was cultural... elder Johncock has not said this specific instance was wrong. It was wrong. The second someone with a platform claims that however, things will blow up.

I loved it as a kid but it tasted like its full of sugar when I tried some a few years,not a fan of hydrogenated oils either

i didn't like it at as kid either, i dont know why either
 
I don't see how something being cultural excuses it anyway. If stoning to death someone who commits adultery was cultural would that be acceptable under Australian law?

I've heard of "stone the flamin' Crows", but never "stone the cruddy Wombats".

The 'cultural heritage' alibi is, of course, a complete load of bollocks.
 
The Cameron Smith hate from a section of NRL fans and media. Seems similar to the Adam goodes hate but we know that was turned into a race issue - I'm tipping nothing will be mentioned about Smith's race.

Both are hated because they are champions (typical stupid aussie reaction) and how they supposedly played the game. But both will go down different paths reporting wise or reasons why.

Cameron Smith is hated for being an unrepentant salary cap cheat. Get a clue.
 
Gambling. I have gambled occasionally in the past due to the people I associated with at the time and would probably be a couple thousand ahead but nah, I just don't get in to it
