South Africa has come so far and achieve so much since 1994....

@BritishFailedAesthetic It is in a form of Apartheid right now. There are no promised rainbow nation. The rest of the world just does not want to face the truth. Whites, coloreds and Indians are equally prosecuted and oppressed right now.

@Anton So in your mind what is the solution?

@BritishFailedAesthetic Well, first of all laws should be applied across the board. a Pig should have the same rights as the president. Fairness across the board, no matter of skin color. That's a start. But we are dreaming if we ever think the ANC will ever evolve to this level

@Anton We must remember South Africa is a poor Country which has been exploited.

Simply slagging off the ANC and not saying a bad word about Apartheid won't help.

@BritishFailedAesthetic What was "bad" about Apartheid? Yes, people were segregated as to where they were to live and where they could go, but that was about as bad as it got. There are many lies told and believed and taken as true history about slaughtering blacks indiscriminately, abusing them as slaves, keeping them poor etc. I grew up in the Apartheid era, I lived in towns and on farms. Blacks during the Apartheid era was treated quite fairly. Their children and themselves were schooled FOR FREE by top-teachers, transported there and back, had breakfast porridge and lunches for free. Those who worked (FOR MONEY) were transported to and from work, for free. They had running water where ever they lived as well as toilets and, when electricity infrastructure were installed in South Africa, had free electricity and lights. Remember, when South Africa had the Apartheid era, everyone was struggling. Everyone was poor. The British killed our women and children just before that. They burnt the farms of the white Boers, they locked our grandfathers and grandmothers as well as the children and babies up in concentration camps and let them starve to death or to be killed by pests and sicknesses. They locked them up in school halls and churches and put it on fire, them burning to death. The world does not talk about the atrocities of the Brits against us. They don't mention the relentless persecution and torture and indiscriminate genocidal deaths by firing squads and blades. People forget, we don't. And retribution for that is still to come. Besides me refreshing your memory to that, electricity on farms were only available in the late sixties, early seventies. As I mentioned, we were recovering from wars and oppression, trying to rebuild and build a country. But the blacks in our country could work, get a license and drive a truck or a car, they had opportunities, those who wished to "up" themselves in life. Nothing stopped them. And they didn't pay taxes, not a single cent. Yes, terrorists were dealt with by law, such as the terrorist Nelson Mandela. He killed many people with shopping center bombs etc. But any country hunts down terrorists, what's so different about us doing so? And Apartheid... America to some extent still has Apartheid when it comes to the reservations. Australia and it's Aborigine's, Israel and the Philistines etc... So, it's not a question of not saying anything bad about Apartheid, but it's also pointing out the hypocrisy pertaining to that and those still equally guilty thereof, trying to point fingers at us, but with both of their hands drenched in and dripping of innocent blood.

@Anton I just can't imagine the nerve of people colonising a Country and not only that but segregating the native population!

@BritishFailedAesthetic You don't know our history. We legally bought most of the country from the people that were here and after we paid for it they slaughtered us.

@BritishFailedAesthetic "Atrocities" - Name some. I see you have not responded to what your country put us through. Any reason why?

@Anton Google them! I honestly cannot read your responses as you don't use paragraphs.
