 Finally something I can blame on the Germans... Apparently it's an adaptation of Oggy Oggy Oggy which is from the UK scouts groups in the 70's to indicate it was time for a feed.

			    was the guy intoxocated?????
 anywho in my day a number of MEN would have stood up and asked this guy to shut up or get of the bus.......these days there aren't many men around.... this is a good example of when some people just do not or will not respond to requests, and when something more stern is required.....

			    I catch the bus home after every working day, people sing and shout things on the bus all the time, to threaten someone in order to make them stop is so fucking lame. how about simply asking them to please reduce the volume of there voice, instead of screaming aussie aussie aussie Oi Oi Oi, which i cannot begin to explain how embarrassing that is for that person and also australians in general. 
 Australians have a great name overseas, everytime i go travelling and meet people they are always excited to hear im an aussie, but if more and more people see this bogan shit who knows what will happen to our rep. that bogan dude swearing and threatening to stab people in front of his kids deserves a nice beating in my opinion.

			    Incomparable are 'major' cities like New York and any that may be found here.
 New York City's British roots go back to the 1600's, in which the population was made up of 40% black slaves, (being an Atlantic stronghold and all). Post world war saw a boom that meant the rapid growth of NYC, economically and populously, followed by the nadir of the 70's, in which the 'white flight' phenomenon gained speed, following the apparent minority they represented.
 
 A history of large scale immigration, mixed with demographic fluctuations, has created a city stepped in diversity (the term 'melting pot' was coined in NY). In a city of 18 million people, of course there are going to be examples of racial conflicts, and with the more distinct 'black v white' element, they may be more obvious to the naked eye (NYC has the largest population of those who distinguish themselves as blacks).
 
 Being as big a melting point as you are likely to find though, there is a reason why such a large population of Hispanics, Whites, Asians, Blacks as well as many religious groups have managed to co-exist relatively peacefully during the modern era. These people are said to be more tolerant than most of America.
 
 As for the 'Bronx segregation'. The Bronx was once inhabited by massive populations of Jews, Poles etc. The standard of living during the 70's changed this, and they took flight, leaving Hispanics and African Americans (who now make up 53 and 30% of the Bronx populous respectively). Hispanics and African Americans have historically propped the ladder of races. It is not so much segregation, as it is a borough that a large percentage of Hispanics and Blacks have called home, and continue to occupy.
 
 Btw, blacks earn higher incomes than Whites in Queens - Just an example of the racial gap narrowing.

			    A friend just got back from NY and said that it was extremely racist. There might be multicultural aspects there but there's also serious issues with racial hate crimes.
 And as for there 'not being the divisions' that there are here...have you BEEN to The Bronx?

I have, and saw a whole lot less bigotry or racism in NY than I have done here. Had this chat the other day with a guy who spends half his time in NY and half his time here and he can't believe how badly misrepresented Ny is here in Australia. It's very multicultural and there aren't the divisions or tensions in NY anywhere near to the extent we have them here. Sure the odd incident happens but nothing like here, let alone Europe. Stereotyping is a dangerous thing mate.

 End of the day, is "stop singing in French" racist?
 A bloke in England last year copped a fine and 3 year football banning order for racism after saying at a match that Louis Saha was a “fucking useless lazy French bastard”. Referring to someone's national origin is likely to get you labelled a racist This does my head in. Your nationality does not define your 'race', you are not being 'racist', you're being a bigot. People are so quick to play the "racism" card these days they don't even fucking know what the word means any more! Don't even get me started on the use of the word in relation to religion or beliefs.

Easily one of the best films of all time. Ignore the hype, download and watch it. Tonight.

 No, but i think you can hear one of them call someonone a ding. How men can treat women with such disrespect is more sickening to me. .....at least she didnt surrender:p Edited by aussie4ever4: 23/11/2012 02:39:29 PM Shades of "Casablanca"... Bunch of bogan wankers! Anyone who yells "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, oi, oi oi" needs to be deported to Iran.
