I first heard about the Bradshaw Paintings when I was as a very young boy while watching The Bush Tucker Man 'Les Hiddins' back in the early 90's with my grandfather.
Les commented on how the "aboriginals" of the area said they didn't know who did the paintings as they were there before they arrived and that they vandalised and graffitied them as they considered then rubbish. These comments are recorded for all to reference in his videos. It is particularly concerning that given his Australian Military credentials and connections, these paintings are never used by the Australian Government to form any basis for distinguishing 'Aboriginality'. I guess playing the racial card is far more emotive and penetrating than scientific fact when the goal is to win votes.
These paintings depicts a very African theme with the shapes of the people and the dress. They have since been dated at many thousands of years older than any 'aboriginal' painting. Given the detail, I would personally assume that these were painted by humans however, potentially mapping the DNA continues to be thrwarted by 'aboriginals' as they claim ownership over all old bones found in Australia and therefore the Australian people are not allowed to touch them. There was recently a court case hinged on this exact theme for a skeleton that was believed to be the oldest ever found in Australia. The courts gave it to the 'Aboriginals' to bury without any scientific investigation.
So we have some evidence that our Aboriginals are not really are aboriginals.
I am confused as to what the argument then is.
As for what we then do with our underpriveledged and at-risk Australians, I believe that race colour religion shouldn't matter, it should all come come down to your Australian Citizenship and your financial status
