Professor - people have the right to get angry. The police have done nothing to prevent these murders.

I am noticing people are reaching out to one another and getting impatient with cheap race tactics from politicians.
These are the birth pangs of a young democracy.

Christoher - should the South African “right wing” not be angered by the murders of white farmers? I doubt it is a “right wing” feeling only

There are 70 million plus of us in this country, how many do you think will show up?

[antonoosthuizen]

Christopher has the same mindset as Antifa...

Why are there white people in Africa? and that's not a racist question, because the difference racism and racialism is not most highlighted in these media coverages, We are still under white racism, 1996 just muted racialism but not the institutionalization of white racism. So again I ask, what are White people doing on Foreign, African land?
