"How can you humiliate them and expect them to like you"

I don't give a damn if "them" like me. As long as people respect the sanctity of my person and property they can think what they like about me. Do you honestly think that Black people spend their spare time fretting about what opinion Whites have of them? If they did wouldn't they conduct themselves differently?

Why is it humiliation to tell the truth about people? Do you think as a Christian that God wants Blacks to destroy nations when there are millions of Whites capable of implementing order, legality and prosperity? Should we let children play in traffic because not allowing them to do so would make them unhappy?

I believe that by my own doing, I have been secluded from what has been happening in the good old Republik van SA, and I thank God that I have.

I was also a moderate "blank" but after viewing the squallor and vandalism of what once was an Internation Powerhouse (in 1985 I paid ZAR830.00 for $US1000.00), I start to question Verwoerd, Vorster and all the rightwing policies which were in place.

I believe that the problems goes back further than these relatively modern day leaders, back to Piet Retief and the Voortrekkers. Maybe they should not have stopped at Blood River!
