A 24-year-old man who hit two Aboriginal pedestrians with his car and sped away, later bragging to his friends he’d run down an “oxygen thief”, has been spared actual jail time
The court heard Danby sent a series of “disgusting” text messages to his friends in the hours after the crash, in which he labelled the crash victims as “dogs” and “n***ers”.
No jail ? Lucky he didn’t run Charke Kirk down I guess.
It’s amazing how much isn’t taught in school. And I know that won’t be surprising to those in other colonial states like the US and Canada but we learned about US segregation, Jim Crow, read/watched To Kill A Mockingbird, but didn’t know we’ve had the same kind of de facto segregated towns here in Australia within living history, complete with our own Freedom Ride in 1965. Luckily the union movement and communists eventually put a dent in it through boycotts and shoved the government into action.
