| | PM - Aboriginal traditions perverted, Trudgen says |
 | | RICHARD TRUDGEN: Under traditional law, sex was never entered into until there was full agreement, consent by
on the part of the wife, because traditionally people would have been living in their uncle's estate, on their uncle's estate, in other words, on your wife's father's estates. |
 | | RICHARD TRUDGEN: The answer is to do some of the things that the Northern Territory's now talking about, really grasping the nettle and doing something about alcohol abuse which has made a lot of, dare I say, white people very rich on the backs of Aboriginal suffering. |
 | | RICHARD TRUDGEN: I have to Mark, because we cannot go into the next 10 years in the direction that we're going, with drunkenness on the rise, these sort of statistics rising and it's not the fault of Aboriginal people. |
