@ DonDunstan not all White South Africans are Afrikaners and I was talking about some of the farmers having racist tendencies. And I was talking about farmers. There is no evidence that this is happening in the cities. 2 99% of to SA people I know are Jewish who have no truck with the racist element within Afrikaner community. I stress again if SOME RACIST FARMERS treat blacks like they are sub human than those farmers can expect sympathy from blacks. So stop assuming stuff just because you think I am racist. I can tell you I am not.

We have a new thread,  this is locked, end of a era maybe, but also the talk was going in a weird direction.
