Adam Goodes declines Hall of Fame invitation

[theyellowsash]

how??? You said he was booed for 10+ years which is bullshit .

Maybe you should go back and read my post.

But that's not the reason you've lost credibility. It's your claim that its racist say an aboriginal has lied.

 

[nut]

You literally just lost whatever credibility you might have had

Sorry I re-read your post ...

Who decides what is "likely to be misinterpreted"? People interpret non-racist things as racist regularly, especially those who are constantly trying to find racism everywhere. So once again, if someone who wants to view everything as racist, interprets your non-racist action as racist, then you're a racist if you do that action? That is your point, correct? You reckon that logic stacks up?

Oh I apologise - all good then. I thought Goodes was thinking that he was getting racially abused and that Eddie Betts thought Goodes was getting racially or that thousands of of other indigenous people thought Goodes was getting racially abused -or that somehow this was being reported in the media at the time but you just pointed out that none of that ever happened and there was absolutely no way that the people could possibly think that what they were doing may be seen as just a tinsey-winsey bit racist. You're obviously NOT a racist, you've never said a racist thing and that you should become Australia's next indigenous minister.

What can I do to make reparations? Flowers? I have a sister who is quite attractive, wink, wink. Reach around?

an article from 2015 when the issue is starting to be changed to being racist.
Dermie getting heated ...because nothing Dermie said was not factual, But Rebecca Wilson accusing Dermie of inciting racism.

Dermott Brereton and Rebecca Wilson clash on air over Adam Goodes debate

Wilson accuses Brereton of ‘actively encouraging’ fans’ behaviour, prompting fuming former AFL player to call in to radio show to defend himself

Disingenuous post, get back to me when you're ready to talk like an adult.

This is why important discussion about racism never happen, because people like you shout up and down and jump down anyone's throats who doesn't instantly label everyone a racist.

Once again, some people thinking an action is racist does not make it racist, this is obvious and people have mentioned constantly WHY Goodes was booed, and compared it to many other champion players in similar situations who ALSO got booed... Oh, and they've even pointed out that NOT A SINGLE OTHER INDIGENOUS PLAYER GETS BOOED, even when they speak out against racism... so unfortunately all your points get debunked very easily so you have to shout "RACIST!!!" loudly to cover your lack of logic.

And before you go down "that" path, of course some people booing are racist, take any sample size of tens of thousands of people and racists will be in every single one of them, but that's obviously not why the booing started OR why it continued (blame the media).

Nut the nut job keeping the thread alive single handedly

 

[SBD Gonzalez]

Yep. Time to shut the thread down.

No argument here.

Even from the so called moral high ground is still able to dish out insults.

Yer let’s put our hands over our ears and pretend the issue will just disappear.

There are some things we wish would disappear…

Once again this issue has been derailed by the overtly racist, the pathetic apologist brigade and the just downright nasty.

There is an undercurrent of bigotry in this country that in this instance manifests when the name Adam Goodes is mentioned.

So does he get inducted or not? Does he have to accept in order to be inducted?

I believe he has to accept to be inducted.

 

[Number37]

Is it? What if there was a different motivation?

If a person who is indigenous tells you to stop something, but you don't stop, are you racist?

Are you going to explain to the indigenous person that you're booing them for personal reasons before you boo them?

I imagine it’ll be an open invite for whenever (if) he decides he wants it. Might not happen until all the higher ups at the AFL have moved on though.

Will never happen. Goodesy doesn't want a bar of it.

Who knows what will happen in the future

You reckon the AFL would leak the story of Goodesy declining so as to pressure him to accept?


How do you think Goodesy would take that?
