Thanks for the read guys. I've been discussing this whole deal with my wife a fair bit lately and it's interesting to see a few more views on the subject.
There was a great segment on Hack(JJJ) last night while I was on my way home from work. It was all about this media beat up.
One good point made by Dan Sultan, was that you don't get to decide what's offensive. It's the person that's offended who gets to decide.
Better, in my opinion, than the other drivel that's been spewing forth.
Working in construction, you come across a fair bit of colourful behaviour from all sides. I've been on both ends and don't really mind most of it. However, I have offended a few good people over the years and have always made an effort to show them the same respect as the next person.
Good people deserve to be treated so.
One bad point Dan Sultan made was in relation to the footy player being a legend and an amazing person. WTF.
Maybe I need to look further into the amazing good deeds of this bloke?
A far as the guy getting upset and pointing the girl out in a crowd goes, it is reconciliation week after all.

As a race, the indigenous population of this country has had it rough. There is no denying that.
Peace out.
