        Wow it's that old? Can't be... I thought it was Ruddy who said sorry, that was the Howard era...

        The world had been yelling

        Revolting with anger
        While it smiled like it was cute
        That everything was shit.

          Howard didn't say sorry ......

          The 1997 Bringing Them Home report recommended that the Prime Minister apologise to the Stolen Generations. Prime Minister John Howard refused to do so, stating that he "did not subscribe to the black armband view of history

            I know.

            My point is that 97 was Howards era, and I know he didnt say sorry, because l remember Rudd saying it, so my post was questioning my memory, as I don't see how Sorry Day can have been celebrated since 97 if Rudd was the one that said sorry much later...

                Hopefully you got the answer your original post inquired upon. Your thread provided me with some answers regarding this place. An NDN could probably find more hospitality over at Stormfront.

                          Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

                                Derailed discussion has been moved to it's own topic in General Discussion. Let's keep this in topic. If people don't actually want to talk about Columbus Day and all it entails, please just stay out of the thread then. I'll be in the other thread.
