When I think of Aborigines, I think of the natives from "Crocodile Dundee".

In case the down votes have you confused, “Aborigines” and “Natives” is found to be offensive. The world steps forward everyday but not all of us can keep up at the same pace. 🙂

I had no idea this was offensive. So sorry that it came off as such. Thank you for correcting me. I used the word "Aborigines" because a friend of mine moved to Australia many years ago and uses that word to describe certain people in her area. Anyone familiar with Alice Springs?

Your friend is likely racist.

She is far from racist. She has bi-racial children and grandchildren.
