James you are quite missing the fact that I, unlike you, Actually grew up in the country.. and so i have first hand knowledge of this.
steriotypes and generalisations are called thus because that is what the general concensus of the topic at hand are actually like.
growing up in the country for a good 10 years or so, over that time i never met an abo that wasent like that. Given props to ernie dingo or guys that become football players and make something of themselfs and contribute to society.. but the fact of the matter is that the gros populus of the aborigional comunity is not like that. 95% would rather sit around, whinge to us about wanting there land back, getting pissed on anything they can possibly find (yes, filtering metho thru bread is an actual thing, then dry the bread later and eat that aswell) and bludge off the government.
now hey.. if you wanna go live out in the middle of australia for 10 years come back and tell me different.. by all means go ahead.
untill then my point stands as fact.

Hey next time hero, write your own goddamn message instead of editing my post and putting it in there.
Also, please note the bit that I helpfully highlighted.
I lived in cowra on a farm for nine years.
So shut the hell up.
May not be the "middle of australia" (end quote) but it's still "the country" as you would so eloquently put it.
Your narrow minded view of a few aboriginals (not "abos"... i guess racial slurs come as easily to you as stupid close-minded stereotypes) in a close-knit country community does not represent the FACT of all aboriginals all around australia.
edit: wait, I have NFI who it was. Their post seems way too structured and gramatically correct for me to guess who it was :mellow:
