Vote NO to Australia being divided by race. Support Martin Luther King's vision of his hope that people will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character. Race based politics were not acceptable under Apartheid South Africa - why would Australia want to change its constitution so that 3% of the population have more rights than 97% based purely on their race ? Think long and hard when you vote - this will rewrite the country's constitution and cannot be rolled back. Are you happy to be a second rate citizen in your own country ?

Smilies

Explanation

'Smilies' are small graphical images that can be used to convey an emotion or feeling. If you have used email or internet chat, you are likely familiar with the smilie concept. Certain standard strings are automatically converted into smilies. Try twisting your head on one side if you do not 'get' smilies; using a bit of imagination should reveal a face of some description.

If you want to disable smilies in a post that you make, you can select the 'Disable Smilies' option when posting. This is particularly useful if you are posting program code and you do not want ;) converted to a smilie face!
