RE: Letter to the editor In reply to your letter‚ I would like to inform you‚ that the policy regarding the removal of Aboriginal children was not as you stated. As soon as a child was born‚ they were considered a ward of the state because of their Aboriginality. The policy of Assimilation was established in 1911 for the removal of children from their community to extinguish their culture. This is also known as Genocide‚ but was not seen that way until the policy was removed in the mid 1960s.

Pro Choice: Letter to the Editor Dear Editor‚ I believe that the right for a person to chose their own destiny and how they live is a fundamental principle of this country.

When this right is denied to someone by the government‚ undoubtedly something very wrong. It is such the case with making abortions illegal. By outlawing abortions‚ you are outlawing a woman’s choice

Letter to the editor (smacking kids) 2/3/17 Dear editor‚ I strongly believe a good old smack is the best option to correct your child’s behaviour. A sensible smack just can not possibly harm your child but they can benefit from it. In this article I will tell you why smacking is the best medicine to correct your child’s behaviour and also discipline them. As long as your child knows you care for them and love them I see no harm‚ it just teaches them a lesson. There’s a saying called "no pain

A Letter to the Editor Eugene Robinson Your article “You Have the Right to Remain a Target of Racial Profiling‚” was rather entertaining and not based on all factual evidence. I do not solely base my opinions on statistical data from one source. You quoted percentages from the Federal Bureau of Justice Statistics report which stated that Hispanics‚ African Americans and Whites were most likely to be pulled over for a traffic offense. Percentages can be alarming when used in this context‚ and

Euthanasia should be legalized? As human beings we should all have the right to end our suffering and to choose a dignified‚ quiet death. Euthanasia is the hastening of death for a suffering‚ terminally ill person. It is a quiet and easy death. Indeed‚ the term euthanasia quite literally means in Greek a good death. Euthanasia should be made a legal procedure within Australia as any such legalization would give people the legal right to choose a ‘good death’‚ a dignified death for them. The historical

Dear Editor‚ I am writing in recognition of your recent column about popular themes within the book ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ by Harper Lee. The columnist mentioned the theme of racial discrimination and I feel that they have overlooked the most important theme; social inequality.
