This has got to be the dumbest fucking thing I've ever seen on the internet. Newsflash, hero. Taking up arms against a tyrannical, out of control government is not the same as waging a war against your fellow citizens. Running a bombing and murder campaign of fear designed to scare your opponents into caving into your demands is the very definition of terrorism. Threatening an uprising against a government that no longer recognizes your personal rights and liberties is patriotism. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

You know I just want to drop this little gem of information here since so many think that it was only the whites putting down the natives and the ANC were freedom fighters.
According to the Human Rights Commission it is estimated that during the Apartheid period some 21,000 people were killed, however both the UN Crimes against Humanity commission and South Africa's own Truth and Reconciliation Commission are in agreement that in those 43 years the South African Security forces killed a total of 518 people. The rest, (some 92%) were accounted for by Africans killing Africans, many by means of the notorious and gruesome practice of necklacing whereby a car tyre full of petrol is placed around a victim's neck and set alight. This particularly cruel form of execution was frequently carried out at the behest of the ANC with the enthusiastic support of Mandela's demonic wife Winnie. View Quote |

You know what cracks me up about Johnny bravo and the other GDers who will rail on about how the white man brought modern civilization to Africa, and without us (whites) Africans would still be shitting in huts? The ancient Romans used to say the same shit about everyone north of the Alps. And then the Roman Empire and all its modern civilization collapsed, white European tribes sacked Rome a few times and took over. This little golden age saw white Europeans shitting in huts for a solid 500 years. So you know what...I think I'm going to cut black South Africans some slack, because they've only been running the show for a little more than 20 years. By the white European clock, they still have a good 480 years to go before we judge. History? Wolf. I guess your lieing to us when you don't mention mugabe, right? How many white people have been killed since 1994 by blacks in SA? What was the number of farms in SA in 1994 and what is it now? Where in history did the labor of 200,000 black people feed 150,000,000 white people? Wooosh. Right over your head. That's one way to avoid hard answers. No, more like your reply had absolutely fuck-all to do with my post. |

I think the main problem with Mandela was that things got out of control.
SA was bad, and his fight for racial equality was justified. The events that caused Mandela and the ANC to start being violent remind me a lot of the Boston Massacre and the Battle of Lexington and Concord that quickly lead to the US revolution. The problem was that the people following (chronologically) Mandela were way "over zealous" in targeting non-combatants. Most of the major atrocities Umkhonto we Sizwe (founded by Mandela) is known for happened while Mandela was in jail. |

Mandela's govt instituted massive gun control , levied massive taxes, seized businesses, froze oversea assets, refused to let people travel freely abroad and if you tried to emigrate they took everything you owned to include bank accounts. They also refused to allow family members to follow folks that DID manage to emigrate.
That's where some good friends of ours are now. They fled SA 11 years ago with a couple of suitcases. Lost a pediatric practice, their home and all their savings. Had to go to Belgium, then to Canada, THEN emigrate to the US thanks to immigration quotas. The South African Govt is holding their parents and the children of a sister hostage. Will not grant visas. Sister was murdered in a Johannesburg Emergency room. Caught in an crossfire between thugs while at work. They cannot go back to visit either, The SA govt will seize their passports once they get in country. Think about that for a second. They gave up EVERYTHING to get the hell out of there. They are also Asain, not white. So save your "they must be white supremacists" drivel. Yep, a real freedom fighter and a shining example to all, that Mandela. |

The San People of Southern Africa and the Bantu-speakers didn't have any method of writing, so researchers know little of this period outside of archaeological artefacts The Bantu-speakers had started to make their way south and eastwards in about 1000 BC, reaching the present-day KwaZulu-Natal Province by 500 CE. The Bantu-speakers had an advanced Iron Age culture, keeping domestic animals and also practising agriculture, farming sorghum and other crops. They lived in small settled villages. The Bantu-speakers arrived in South Africa in small waves rather than in one cohesive migration. Some groups, the ancestors of today's Nguni peoples (the Zulu, Xhosa, Swazi, and Ndebele), preferred to live near the coast. Others, now known as the Sotho–Tswana peoples (Tswana, Pedi, and Basotho), settled in the Highveld, while today's Venda, Lemba, and Shangaan-Tsonga peoples made their homes in the north-eastern areas of South Africa."

And you missed my point. People say blacks were abused by being denied freedom and civilization that they did not want anyway and was forced on them. How can you abuse people by not letting them have full access to what they didn't want. That makes no sense. I didn't even mention slavery in the US so I don't know why you directed that last bit at me. View Quote What are you mumbling about? Blacks wanted freedom and their version of civilization, are you arguing the contrary? In 1948 election, when the National (white people party) Party came into being, beginning apartheid, no blacks got to vote, even though they made up the majority. Also, who are you alluding to, that is saying that the 'African blacks didn't want their freedom, or to continue on with their way of life and what would they possibly have to complain about?' Because one tribe conquered another tribe, somewhere in South Africa, doesn't mean that because the Apaches conquered the the Hopi (made up players) at one point in Indian history, all Native Americans suddenly wanted to give up their freedoms and way of life to the white man, when he sailed ashore in North America. Is that's the angle you're taking? Go back and read the post that I initially replied to and maybe my comments will make more sense to you. I don't think I'm advocating the position that you think I am. To wit: you don't get to enslave and abuse a people, then give them some minor benefits and comforts, like a little food, clothing, shelter, or a slum/ghetto to live in and then get to justify your actions as being morally correct, just by saying: 'hey, it's not so bad, we gave them some food, clothing and shelter, so why are they being ingrates?'

You were the one calling me for having a Nazi avatar. Forget about that? View Quote No, I stated that you have a Nazi helmet in your avatar. And I didn't even mention the Iron Cross in the drawing. I Googled it and there's a picture of your helmet without the Frankenstein knobs on the sides and it's dated 1942. So I'll stand by my comment, even though I might be technically off on a minor point. And in light I of what you posted and what I commented about, it is textbook 'irony.' Chris |

Quoted: Of course not. Would you accept money and arms from commies just like black civil rights leaders? Or do you just shuffle and mutter yes massa. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: If UN troops invaded Utah would you accept anti tank rockets from Cuba? If UN troops invaded New York would you murder your neighbor and rape his wife because you wanted to be the resistance leader not him? That a more apt comparison of what this fake "freedom fighter" did. We have no room to talk. We accepted help from the French. |

Because he refused to take their shit This. If you guys woke up in tomorrow to find apartheid in USA and it was white people who were treated as sub-human, you can be dam sure you would resist / terrorize / call it what you want !!! I sure as fuck woudn't murder civilians like Mandela did. Apartheid was despicable, but Mandela was no saint. He was a scumsucking, Communist murderer. Spin is spin He's spinnin' his murdering commie ass straight to hell right now. |

Quoted: You seriously not going to try to school a guy who lived it with revisionist bulkshit and the moral equivalency game are you? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Kind of like a Jew in Berlin during the Third Reich, huh? "Well, the streets are clean and the trains run on time and I don't have to be worried about being stabbed randomly by a mugger. I'll just nip on home for a nice sabbath, and hope the fucking state secret police don't show up in the dead of night and shoot or 'disappear' everyone. So nice to feel safe." This is what pisses me off, as a South African the rest of the World compares apartheid SA to the Nazis, you make it seem as if the cops drove around all night and broke into blacks homes and killed the lot of them. The truth is, yes the police went around and took out some blacks a lot of them, most if not all of these targets were ANC (A recognized terrorist group) and ANC sympathizers, there were very few random knock and shoots, what do you think, we had millions of cops with out anything else to do? Their targets were terrorists, the World media made it seem it was all of the black population but they were after the terrs. Was apartheid wrong? Yes it was, was it the only way to keep savage behavior off the streets and out of communities (The same behavior that we see there now) yes it was at that time, as can be seen by the lawlessness rampant there now, mostly black on black and black on white crimes. Apartheid was more of a way to control the movements of the people, the Zulus wanted to wipe the Xosa off the planet, we are talking millions of people wanting to wage tribal warfare on each other through out the country, this would lead to carnage as well as disrupt the economy, since most laborers were black (As is the case today, so don't say it was because they were forced to be laborers because they were black) and scare the rest of the country not caught in the cross fire away. Before I left SA of all the black friends I had,there parents would often tell my friends and I that they felt safer under apartheid, they know where they stood, the rules and the lines were clear, they didn't like it, but they were relatively safe, today, anyone and everyone is a target especially if you are a member of a tribe which is not well liked by the other tribes, on top of the tribal violence, there is the normal violent crime which exists in any country, so they get a double whammy now. Like I said Apartheid was not perfect, it served it purpose at keeping the peace though, that is evident if you take a look at the place today, but it was a system which had to go as it was unfair as much as it was racist, however, you cannot condone what Mandela and his elk did, I don;t care what you are fighting for, bombing school buses, rape and torture of people who have nothing to do with your fight other than they come from a different tribe or are white like the government of time is not the behavior of the good guys. Mandela used to show up on TV just like old boss Osama, there would be a bombing, a school bus would get nailed, a busy shopping center would get blown up, that night, or a night or two later, there's Mandel on TV news in a recorded tape just like Osama, telling us all that the white rulers are to blame for his (Manuela's) actions and that more will follow if the whites don't give up. But to the World he is a hero, I wonder if Osama will be regarded as a hero in years to come because he took his fight for freedom of US influence right to the USA and fought long and hard for his freedom. You seriously not going to try to school a guy who lived it with revisionist bulkshit and the moral equivalency game are you? |

Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Ask the people who live there now if the place is "fixed." Do you think that absolves Apartheid-era South Africa? Yes. Then you are as bad as the fucking raping, beheading, savages that have taken over SA, just in your own fucking way. You take one evil over another evil as long as you stay warm at night. Pretty fucking pathetic. In fact most of the people in the thread are fucking pathetic. Why don't we just face the facts and realize if SA had abolished the Apartheid system 20 or 30 years before, the country would have integrated, on their own god damn terms and this bullshit wouldn't have happened. All those innocent civilians in SA are just about as bad as the innocent civilians of the fucking Nazi regime. Yah okay, there were no death camps, but plenty of Black South Africans died at their hands, for no other reason then being black. Any you know what, none of the happy people living in their homes gave a shit. I mean really, what the fuck did they think would happen? What do you think keeping people uneducated, poor, and downtrodden is going to do? Did they think that Blacks would just happily keep quite? Idiots the lot of them, and I do not have sympathy for anyone but the innocent children who were killed. They never knew better. Savages breed savages, and the Apartheid government brought what is happening in SA now upon the country. The ANC and Mandela were savages too. And Mrs. Mandela deserves to be given a taste of her own medicine, but I tell you what GD. If you were in Apartheid all of you would have either done what the ANC did, maybe some of you would be less terroristic but I doubt that, or you all would have coward in fear, watching TV in your undies and blabbing away on the internet about how your reality TV has disappeared because the evil revolutionaries have tried to change things. The majority of you assholes have never known any sort of hardship, and you bitch and moan when things are handed to you on a silver platter. Even if every freedom you had was taken away, I bet 90% of you complainers wouldn't do shit, you wouldn't lift your magpul fucked safe queens out. You would just complain and bitch some more, fuck you would probably complain about the people trying to get your freedom back. |
