Jarred was having lunch in a café when he overheard two ladies talking about Aboriginal Australians in a very derogatory manner.
But according to him, instead of lashing out at the women talking
"Went out for lunch today. Food was great but to our misfortune we inadvertently heard two elderly ladies, seated next to us, chatting about aboriginals. The conversation was less than distasteful with words like assimilation thrown around willy nilly. "I could have unleashed a tirade of abuse but that wouldn't have helped.

Hopefully there won't be a next time!"People in the comments of the post praised Jarred for his patience at listening to the women.
