"That's her father's country. We named that gorge after her father, my grandfather."
More proof. See what I mean? Her "father's country"... the dreamtime country of domineering men's camps where
the male owners, not his mother's mother (she lived in the woman's camp which represented nothing more than
a slave-labor concentration camp with no ownership of the land to name). Mr Hayes (like Clinton Walker and the media etc.),
seems to think that despicable era of dishing out human suffering to women is a proud cultural heritage (the symbol of repression
represented by Juukan-2) is worth saving?
One may as well declare Auschwitz a sacred place and call that cultural heritage worth protection with a veto
vote with a new Section 18. The same veto vote the dreamtime men's camp didn't give women.
It is sad that so many Aboriginal males have ended up here:

What goes around comes around. Maybe now some of the males are finally getting the same justice back they dished
out for thousands of years to the women in dreamtime. I wonder what the lifespan of a male is on the streets of
Perth today? Maybe 20 years shorter...just like the males caused to the women's lifespans in dreamtime? Looks
like justice is finally being served, even though a little late.

"They turned and said, 'It's f***ed because of mining. What (have) they done to the country?'"
And what did dreamtime do for women's suffrage? Right, it was "f***ed" because of the dreamtime men's camps.
So save all 86 sites in the gorge with an appeal vote with a modified Section 18 and reinstall the women's concentration
camps?
It's because of steeltime Aboriginal heroes like Kath Walker, Reg Saunders, Leonard Waters and thousands others that made
it possible that Mr. Hayes is even here to talk about dreamtime today and the "f***ed" chauvinistic men's camps.
