I think he has an attention defecit, Koojo.
All the same, regardless of the dictionary meaning, Ent posted a link, and in that it said "The people tested were only those indigenous to each country, so for Australia only 2.4% (approximately 400, 000 people) of the population is indigenous".
Therefore they ARE talking about aboriginal people, not every ocker.
However ENT then said that EVERY ocker is indigenous.
This is today's little ENT-turd, but he's not cleaning it up.
You're totally off your rocker dingo brains.
Meaning #1 as you posted indicates that which I said.
Try reading an Oxford or Collins dictionary
We're not talking about dictionary meanings, ENT
We're talking about what you posted, which says :"The people tested were only those indigenous to each country, so for Australia only 2.4% (approximately 400, 000 people) of the population is indigenous".
Therefore they ARE talking about aboriginal people, not every ocker.
But then debating points is not your forté, is it ?
So ent.
By your logic then George Bush, for example, is indigenous to America?
Correct, if he was born there, a native of America.
No, you said anyone born in the country is a native of and therefore indigenous to it.
This
Has quite a DIFFERENT meaning, which I understand may not be immediately obvious to the less sharp among us (you).1. originating in and characteristic of a particular region or country; native (often followed by to ):
Because someone was born in a place does not mean they 'originated' there or are characteristic of that place.
If an Indian were born in NZ do you think he would be Characteristic of NZ?

Are you being purposly obtuse or are you just plain stupid?
Obtuse.
Adj.
a : lacking sharpness or quickness of sensibility or intellect : insensitive, stupid b : difficult to comprehend : not clear or precise in thought or expression
In line with his other posts : whichever is more convenient for him
P.S. ENT only knows the word "obtuse" because he heard it in the movie The Shawshank Redemption recently.
C'mon, you bring some info to the table re. average Oz IQ.
I think his mum's called him for tea.

You're not cleaning up your little turd, ENT
Since you are lacking in social skills, let me tell you how : You admit fault, admit you're human, have a laugh at yourself and encourage everyone to laugh at human frailties in general; then move on.
What you have been doing and continue to do, is dig yourself deeper into a hole, incurring the contempt by all here viewing this thread....ever.
Well well, looky here ! Checking out a thread entitled " I am not a racist", page 5, here :
https://teakdoor.com/moronic-kiddies-...-racist-5.html
now delegated to the Moronic Kiddies Posts section of Teakdoor, after only 30 seconds I found this statement by Captain Nemo (who in my opinion, as I have remarked previously, made the most insightful post on this thread about the original topic). Here he comes to the same conclusion about ENT that we have :
It's good to know that an astute person like Nemo has independently come to the same conclusion we have.
Again :
It seems that our ENT has been busy doing what he does best : being a retard and irritating others with his trollishness.

No need to get nasty. Yes, talking about my drug induced 'psychosis'. Is drug induced psychosis less valid than other forms of psychosis that would lead people to beleive they saw UFO's?Originally Posted by ENT
