Humph! Couldn't have predicted the negative posts in response to his appointment. Good to see many positive responses in retaliation to the initial deluge of negativity. I rarely shopped at DJs in the past. I'll try & make an effort to do so now. Well done Goodsey! Proud of you

Well the racists can't hide behind the "football banter" excuse anymore. It is an absolute disgrace.

Good to see the positive feedback in support of Goodes.

We should let the boats in, unload the refugees, then reload them these racists and send them the other way. Would make a great exchange program. Just think of how much better off Australia would be.

Now THAT would be a trade I'd certainly go for!

I think it's great. These people are crawling out of the woodwork and, for some reason, thinking it is suddenly socially acceptable to espouse their explicitly racist opinions. Keep exposing them, I reckon. Maybe when they read back some of what they write they will realise how despicable it is.

And those "casual racists", who argued that the booing of Goodes had nothing to do with race, might get an inkling that there is a vocal minority in this country who are explicitly racist and proud of it. Maybe some of them might have a rethink about exactly what constitutes racism.

And those of us who might sometimes have been guilty of not speaking out against racism when confronted with it will keep being reminded that this isn't good enough.

Yes, good move. The racists cant hide behind the "poor footy player" facade any more. They are exposed for what they are.

Goodes will be in their face in DJ ads for the next few months, and there is no mob (crowd) to fester their hate. The hate will die off soon enough.

Adam Goodes: Backing Australia's David Beckham is a stroke of genius for David Jones

[dimelb]

Clever move by DJ's - keeps the boogans out of their stores, get a nicer style of customer.

For those of you who haven't heard Titus O'Reilly before, here is a good sample about the Goodes situation.
