At what point do we continue to justify mourning?
Say there were 1 million aborigines prior to the first fleet arrival.
Then 1000 people came on a boat in 1788.

That's a 0.1% population increase.

Last year we added 200,000 immigrants for a population of 27million.
A 0.7% increase.

Should we mourn every year the population increases due to immigration?
Or is that racist?
Or are aborigines racist?

Personally I think we should celebrate multiculturalism on 26th Jan, to show how inclusive Australia is.
And then the aborigines will be the racist ones.

You do realise the 200,000 came here legally and didn't arrive with soldiers and guns right?

By the way, the criminals arrived on 18 to 20 January, not 26 January
