...it seems to ima that the issue isnt about rock climbers vs parks victoria....its about rock climbers vs aboriginal/indigenous people at a very personal level...

..." A 20 minute rush that can damage 20 000 years of history "...
...................................................................................................................................

...the aboriginal/indigenous message seems to be coming thru something like this :

THE GRAMPS WERE NEVER GIVEN UP
THE GRAMPS WERE NEVER BOUGHT AND SOLD
THE PLANTING OF YOUR BOLTS AND CHALK
NEVER CHANGED OUR LAW AT ALL

SPORT CLIMBING IS EASY
SPORT CLIMBING IS CHEAP
MUCH CHEAPER THAN OUR PRECIOUS ART AND LAND
YOUR PROMISES OF RESPECT CAN DISAPPEAR
LIKE WRITING IN THE SAND

TREATY YEAH
TREATY NOW
TREAT US WITH RESPECT
AND MAKE US PROUD !!!
