Hi Terry I posted this comment 3 days ago:
I'm a bit disappointed with some of the racist comments people have made with regard to my video. I could remove them, but I won't, because I think many are indicative of race relations in Australia. I accept and give credence to the democratic nature of youtube, where everyone has the right to comment, but ask that people think about whether they would be willing to make their comments, in front of a group of Aboriginal AFL footballers? It is easy to be brave behind the safety of a keyboard. I think people need to stand by what they say, I notice some of these racists seem to be trollers, posting such comments in various places. I wonder if we will ever see a defamation case on youtube? We don't have the same 'freedom of speech' amendment here in Oz.
