Why were your ancestors put on the america boat, user?

Yes

>Australians pretend like their ancestors weren't crooks
I bet they weren't even horse thieves or pickpockets.
I bet they were just some bums who stole a load of bread.
Landon Parker
They put themselves there for being weirdos, though there were convicts shipped to America as well
Lucas Nguyen
Maybe stop and think for a second. How could prisoners have descendants? Do you think they shipped female prisoners over for them to have sex with?

I know you're being an epic memester, but I'll educate you. Most Australians are descended from the farmers and settlers that came after the convicts. They brought their families over.

I've heard that's where they sent the fags

So 4 million out of 26 million people are ESTIMATED to have a convict ancestor. And this information is being attributed to some unnamed genealogist.
ABC is Marxist propaganda, by the way. I'm sure they're pushing some kind of agenda.
Nathaniel Diaz
They probably got tricked into going there by family friends who regreted going there.

I thought nobody was descended from the convicts because they were all put into a dungeon beneath the surface and never heard from again?

Just admit you know absolutely nothing about Australia or it's history. Your education system failed you.

One side is descended from a Fenian and the other from petty thieves
They estimate a quarter of the population have convict ancestry. Our current Prime Minster is from a convict family.

Didn't mean to reply to the first post
In South and Western Australia, sure

Is it worth visiting your country?

They cut history class to pay for Jamal's programs. Most people in the land of the free refill can't find Australia on a map.

Never said all of them were descendants of convicts, you retard. You said none were, which is provably false. If someone here doesn't know about Australian history, it's you.
Joseph Turner
Yeah I'm sure the first thing on the list that they'll bring back in America with a bigger education budget is the history of fucking Australia
You unironically wouldn't understand, it's a cultural thing.

I don't know why Americans get on a high horse about convicts, the only reason so many of them ended up in Australia is that we couldn't keep shipping them off to America any more.
Nathaniel Martin
We don't though
My mother's Canadian side (loyalists who fled after the Revolution) is unironically descended from horse thieves lol
Brody Davis
Now we're shipping criminals to America. It's come full circle.

that's literally the reason we were settled by the English, Australia would have probably been French otherwise

As if Australian history is anything important to remember
Joshua Mitchell
They tried to enter our country illegally to get free shit. They're opportunistic criminals.
Hunter King
...
John Johnson
They didn't though and haven't broken any laws as a result
If they did enter it would actually be legal for a lot of them, which is part of the problem
Cooper Morris
australians are not convicts you bullies
Luke Williams
Yes I am, Britain needs to pay me reparations.

Did you fail history or are you just dense?

Maybe next you can tell us that no Australians fought in Vietnam or that the Dutch never were in Tazmania.
Cameron Phillips
imagine being butthurt about being called a descendent of convicts

Less than a third of the number that was sent the Australia we're sent here. Georgia was a debtors colony and Virginia and Maryland basically received rebels from Wales, Scotland and Ireland.
A bunch also ended up on shitty Carribean islands.
