“FIERCE debate has broken out as Queenslanders hit back at a US rap artist's claims that Brisbane's population is racist.
Tyler, the Creator, the frontman for controversial Los Angeles based hip-hop group Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All, claimed on social networking site Twitter that he had been the victim of a racial slur in a Brisbane fast-food restaurant.”
These lines are from a Bris-courier-mail article this morning.
The item goes-on to lean against the L.A. Bro's insinuation, that Brisbane is racist, and the reader comments add to that parochial view, with only a few supporting the allegation that Brizzy is racist.
So I flung my mud onto the comments section thus...,
It takes great courage to speak out about what is endemic racism in Queensland and across Australia today. This white christian nation, like the USA, Britain, Europe, and still, South Africa, et al, depends on racism to prosper.
All strength to the Brothers from L.A.
Of course, no-one mentions the entrenched racism within the Bris-Courier-Mail, which has always driven such exaggerated articles?
But, on-balance, one commenter suggested the Rappers said what they said merely for local media publicity. I can't argue with that, as a possibility.
Nevertheless.., I expect multiple backlashes from bigoted, small-minded and ignorant Aussies for this, usually in the form of gutless attacks from masked motorbike riders.
And.. talking about motorbike riders.....
It's too early to comment, if it's worth it at all, but Victoria media had two articles on a series of police raids on 'Hell's Angels' properties this morning. The reports had irrelevant information about passed police raids finding weapons, etc, with no really informative story to it, other than the suburbs where the club houses were.
Being too far on the outside of the Outlaws down there south of the south of the borders, it's valueless my saying anything, other than what I dun.
But one news site had a nice pic of an Angel's colors, and a couple of trick scoots...!
As building a hut-on-ute is progressing, I'm off to the shed, so today's Outlaw Junction ends here....
All Praise the Immortals!
All Praise the Warriors who have fallen Fighting for a Just World!
