3 FLAG FACT"S







This Flag was adopted as the symbol of Australian
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island people when it
was first flown in 1971. It is a strident 3-colour flag
composed of a large central yellow circle imposed
on a background of a red lower half and a black
upper half; the black represents the Aboriginal
people, the yellow the sun as a life force, the red
the earth and the blood of the Aboriginal people.
It has no official government standing but is
becoming widely recognized and acknowledged
by the community and is perhaps the only symbol
commonly accepted by the diversity of Aboriginal
people. cool



This is a famous but unofficial Australian flag,
that features a white vertical cross on a blue
background five white, blue-margined, 8-pointed
stars superimposed at the end of each arm of
the cross and at the intersection of the arms,
a stylized Southern Cross. First used in Victoria
in 1854 by a group of rebellious gold-miners
protesting the cost of prospecting licences at
the 'Eureka stockade', this flag has become
the symbol of Australians prepared to fight to
defend rights and liberties. It has been adopted
as a symbol by some of the more militant trade
unions and has also been used as symbol of the
republican movement. cooler
I think we should ditch flags as a form of
representing who we are as a people and all
peoples of this great land should hang a towel
from the HILL"S HOIST (clothes line) and
just swing it around real fast to show
our fellow man just how
Fuckin Stupid we really are !!!! coolest
AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE you know the rest !

Or better still, we could all take turns at being swung around like crazy on our Hills Hoists. Oh, I feel giddy at the thought.

Imagine, if you will, a nation of bent over clothes lines... symbolic of our doubled-over-in-a-bugger-off-position, getting fucked up the arse by political leaders, great Australian Dream.

Wee-ha.
