I believe that when the time comes that black people are treated like human beings with the respect they deserve, crime will be destroyed and dealt with amicably.
And the government of ZA, black-run since 1994, hasn’t been able to accomplish this?
In South Africa today, whites still perceive blacks as criminals.
There’s the solution. Don’t perceive acts such as murder, rape and robbery as criminal. That way, there will be no crime.

I am stunned…
Because whites distrust blacks, this is why blacks commit so much crime?
When whites treat blacks with more respect and more like human beings, blacks will commit fewer crimes?
Blacks have proven that a society can exist in harmony?
Funny, I only thing I associate with 1994 was when South Africa began its immediate collapse.
Orwell was a genius.

Blacks don’t forget slavery.
Whites don’t forget the unproportional number of black crimes of the recent past.
(Ex: Kill the financially successful white.
‘those at the upper end (of the economic ladder) will be hard hit by violent crime.’
Trust is earned.
Learn from hardships and use this as fuel to better yourselves.

Another CROC! Respect what? Blacks? While they slit your throat, rape your women and children? But if you would just “respect” them more they wouldn’t do this to you? I swear we are living in dangerous times when they start blaming the victims for the crimes of the perps! Coming to America? Or has it already?

What is this, blackmail? Give us more money and ‘respect’ or we’ll continue raping and murdering your daughters?
There is no cure for stupidity. Therefore, we cannot get rid of your self caused poverty, or your self caused contemptible behavior that EVERY race, not just whites, looks down on you for. Don’t blame whites, blame yourself or God.

Really? Yes. People can live in harmony with soaring crime, a declining economy, deteriorating institutions, and a dysfunctional government.

Of course, from David Mathebula’s black perspective, all would be wonderful if only those pesky whites would just get with the program to welcome the looters, rapists, and other degenerates into their homes & lives.
“Delusional” is too kind of a term for this nonsense.

“I believe that when the time comes that black people are treated like human beings with the respect they deserve, crime will be destroyed and dealt with amicably.”
“The respect they deserve?” Like what? Applause for raping infants?
What nonsense. Like here every excuse imaginable is used to excuse evil black behavior. Blacks the entire world over are steeped in crime and violence, plus they’re sadly lacking in intelligence.
In this country they’ve decided that a black vile talking hatefilled, anti-white preacher who lives in a 10,000 sq. foot mansion spews the hatred that he does, because of __________ (You fill in the blank. Anything will do.)
What this SA experience with blacks tells us is that they’re disgusting examples of weak criminals who turn to crime, because it’s easier than working.
And these evildoers have no respect for anybody, including themselves.

i just thought up the perfect solution: identify all criminals as being white. this will elevate the poor self-esteem that black south africans no doubt feel. this will make whites feel safer somehow knowing that being a minority the black majority is not targeting them.
now of course we will have to play around with the truth a little bit, but hey, what does truth have to do with the all important mission of elevating the self-esteem of south african blacks and positioning them into their rightful place in society.

‘…crime will be destroyed and dealt with amicably’
Doesn’t make sense.
‘We need a strong and dedicated police force to come into play when dealing with crime.’
Well, that’s what existed under white rule. Now the SA police force is a joke, with police consorting with criminals, confiscating guns from whites and selling them to blacks and then questioning whites after their confiscated guns have been used in murders. The country is a complete JOKE. The ANC are in the process of disbanding a branch of the police force (can’t remember the name) which was having huge success in uncovering corruption, especially within the ANC. There will be no World Cup in South Africa as they are simply incapable.

3000 WHITE FARMERS BRUTALLY MURDERED BY BLACKS – South Africa
Farm murder tally close on reaching 3 000
Written by Adriana Stuijt, Netherlands
In 1994 there were 442 raids by black gangs on SA farms, causing 92 deaths of white people.
In 1995, there were 551 such raids which resulted in the deaths of 121 white people.
In 1996, there were 468 such raids which resulted in the deaths of 109 white people.
In 1997, there were 434 such raids which resulted in the deaths of 84 white people.
In 1998, there were 827 such raids which resulted in the deaths of 145 white people.
In 1999, there were 834 such raids which resulted in the deaths of 136 white people.
In 2000, there were 902 such raids which resulted in the deaths of 142 white people.
And, up to October, 2001 there were 809 such raids which resulted in the deaths of 106 white people.
Thus, whilst Nelson Mandela was the President of South Africa from May 1994 until June 1999, there were around 3,000 attacks on isolated white-owned farmsteads during which nearly 600 members of South Africa’s white farming community were slaughtered by well-organised, heavily-armed black death squads. He never issued any statements condemning these attacks when he was President.
“2007 armed farm attacks increased by 23,8% due to Mbeki’s decision to end the commando-rural policing system, warns opposition party”
According to the statistics being maintained on the website http://groups.msn.com/crimebustersofsouthafrica at least 2,942 farm murders have been recorded there since 1994 - primarily of Afrikaner farmers, their kin and their families.
Please note that this record is incomplete since many farm murders remain underreported or are reported without mentioning the fact that the murder occurred on a farm or smallholding.
Members of the Transvaal Agricultural Union, deeply upset about the double-murder on 82-year old Bronkhorstspruit farmer Hendrick Janse van Rensburg and his 17-year-old grandson Dean Charles Woodraffe on the farm Zusterstroom, on Monday March 17 held a protest demonstration at the local law-courts against the arrested suspect’s bail application.
The chairman of TAU-Centraal region, Anthony Scott-Dawkins, handed over a petition to the magistrate on behalf of the entire farming community, opposing an arrested man’s bail.
He also expressed his condolances with the family of the murdered men.
“To lose an elderly, believed father and grandfather, and a grandson simultaneouosly in such a cruel fashion, makes dealing with the trauma of such a loss so much more difficult,’ he said.
Scott-Dawkins has called on the local police to also investigate ‘anti-white racism’ as a motive for the murders.
“It simply is no longer acceptable that farmers are being murdered in this cruel fashion and that just a cellphone was ‘robbed’ as the only motive.
“People don’t just get murdered for something as petty as a cellphone.
“There must be other motives behind this and it’s high time that the police investigates these underlying motives much more thoroughly.’
“Every murder on a farmer is one murder too many’.
A farm worker from a neighbouring farm, 24-year old Isaac Masutu, had made a brief appearance in court and applied for bail on March 17.
It is believed that Masutu was not alone when carrying out the attack and police are still investigating. Scott-Dawkins also issued an ‘urgent call to farmers to make sure who they are hiring and to check a potential employee’s past criminal records.’
The TAU also warned that farmers should exercise strict control over the visitors to their workers’ cottages — to prevent them from ‘bringing any criminal elements to the farm’.
“Farmers must remain alert at all times,’ he warned.

There is a lot of truth in this statement that the high crime masks. There has been white flight but the population is still intact. Look at the stark contrast of Algeria. The withdrawal of the French Army precipitated the massacre of pieds-noirs, creating a total exodus out of Algeria. In SA, there has been no such attempt to wipe out whites.

As far as south Africa is concerned, it is recorded officially that over 1, 25 million whites have now left in recent years with many others who have bothered to tell the govt. after seeing what the black government is NOT achieving, unless you now class regular daily electrical blackouts, engines falling of aircraft on take-off, one of the most serious crime rates in the world with more daily unlawful killings (including tourists)than even Iraq, highest rape statistics, even of babies, very high HIV/AIDS rates where the president does not believe that HIV causes AIDS Bnd the Minister of Health (kicked out of Botswana a country to the north when, as a nurse, she was caught stealing patient’s personal belongings) says garlic and beetroot is good for HIV, where hospitals that already have the foundations laid have suddenly had the budgeted cash diverted to build soccer stadiums for FIFA 2010 World Cup (more cash to be made in that) and the power-stations are failing because of maintenance failings caused by Affirmative Action and Black Empowerment decisions that have also caused them to be starved of the plentiful coal which is now expecetd to be transported by new black owned and staffed companies. Never happened before in 60+ years. And machinery fails because the skilled white technicians are replaced with blacks, as well as top management causing big companies to be run at a loss, such as S A Airlines. I could go on, but I am sure you get the picture. Of course is is the fault of Apartheid as it will be for many years in the government’s history books, but these catastrophes never happened then.
The Chinese may think that the time will soon be ripe to move in…..

That must be what happened to the pirates that plagued the seas for centuries. People started to treat them as gentlemen so they started acting the part. Once the pirates were respected as human beings and not as rabid beasts, the criminality simply died out.
Maybe that is what happened to the Vikings. They started getting proper respect as human beings instead of people running away from them and hidding in the mountains and caves. Once they were met with the proper respect, they threw away their battle axes and took up respectable occupations like at Volvo, Nokia and IKEA.
Or maybe it was like the Barbary Pirates along the North Africa coast. After centuries of raiding Europe for white slaves, they found they could have more respect as human beings by getting into the oil business. Besides, white slaves have fallen out of fashion anyway. Now they want Chinese and Hispanic slaves.
I am surprised they do not learn a thing or two from George Bush and Ted Kennedy about the role of the modern state. Anytime you have a large segment of the population that is criminal (or considered criminal) all you have to do is REPEAL the law! Once it is no longer illegal, then the perps are no longer criminals. It was supposed to work with illegal aliens in the USA, why not do the same thing to get more respect for blacks in South Africa? Just repeal all those antiquated laws regarding murder, rape and pillage and then blacks will have more respect. Shucks, once these activities become the national sport, no doubt they will be respected as much as South African football.

I don’t think the writer gets it. The question is not ‘can Blacks benefit from White technology while running a social society similar to the one they ran when they were more primitive?’
The question is can they be civilized like Whites?
This excerpt gets the double speak of the week award for complete lack of honesty. Mainstream propaganda journalism yet again maintains it’s low standard for shamless promotion of the “get whitey” agenda. Over one million white skilled workers have fled South Africa for a chance at a better life. If that’s what these people call harmony then it’s no wonder they say diversity is a strength.
I think this is another case of “I tell you what you want to hear and then do what I was going to do anyway.” Who are they kidding anymore?
It will only take a little honesty from the mainstream press to collapse the house of cards upon which all “rainbow” societies are founded.

Posted by Peejay in Frisco at 4:23 PM on March 29
Seems my comment didn’t go through, so I’ll try again:
In a society like ours with a skewed social structure and wide economic gap, it can be expected that when poverty hits those at the lower end of the economic ladder , those at the upper end will be hard hit by violent crime.
In other words Apartheid was justified, and whites were either stupid or insane (or both) to end it.

Ergo, whites should stop demanding respect from black people on the basis that the complaints of black people results in oppresion of the white man.

According to the context (and dictionary.com), respect is defined as the following:
“esteem for or a sense of the worth or excellence of a person, a personal quality or ability, or something considered as a manifestation of a personal quality or ability: I have great respect for her judgment”
By this definition, I would say that Blacks are pretty much in deep trouble. What do Blacks actually bring to the table that anybody cares about?

“Anytime you have a large segment of the population that is criminal (or considered criminal) all you have to do is REPEAL the law!”
This does seem to be the Neo-liberal tactic. The decriminalisation of cannabis possession in the UK was probably intended to ‘decriminalise’ blacks. Our Marxist-terrorist sympathiser London Mayor, Red Ken Livingstone wants young people to travel for free, this would ‘decriminalise’ the countless young blacks and other ‘minorites’ who refuse to pay on our new European-style bendy-buses, which rely on passenger honesty to buy a ticket before bording and punch it themselves. The cost to London of fare-dodging is £50 million a year.
Yes, you’re absolutely right, change the laws and people are no longer criminals. In fact, lower all our civilised standards so everyone becomes civilised, lower all our education standards so everyone is deemed educated. Destroy our economies so all countries are third world. That’s egalitarianism.

Posted by Dwayne O. at 8:58 PM on March 28
w.r.: No, Dwayne, it isn’t a fifth grader it’s a black person. I think you’ll find that no matter how much education the vast majority of them have they can’t be taught intelligence, and it’s lack of intelligence that prompts a person to come to silly conclusions like this man does.
Read the posts on here from blacks and the same kind of inane assertions are made time and time again. In fact, many of us know the writer is black from how he expresses himself.
Personally, I’ve never heard even an uneducated white person utter that particular kind of nonsense.
Note too that he claims further that crime can be dealt with “amicably,” also.
I don’t know why anyone would want to deal with crime “amicably.” “Effectively,” maybe. But I doubt it’s important to deal with crime and violence “amicably.”
Note, too, he childishly says that showing respect to criminals will “destroy” crime (amicably?). Well, I would think that crime isn’t “destroyed” but curtailed, brought to a halt, stifled, etc.
These are the same people who think that they do excellent work but aren’t recognized for it because of racism and oppression.
I wonder if this incompetent would agree to bringing a halt to crime if respect wasn’t shown “amicably” but harsh measures were taken to put a halt to it by locking the perps up for a long time.
This is what Reverend Wright meant when he said blacks can’t get ahead because of whitey. To him this man would be a beacon of intellectual genius, but whites fail to recognize him as such, because they want to keep the black man down.
There’s very little we can say that will put them down as a group more effectively than what crosses their own lips.

The South African truth is so disturbing. Of the 3000 murdered, at least one was an innocent baby burned in newspaper. It was heinous and I pray for Justice. I would like to say no one breathing should walk the earth that does such foul deeds. But that is speaking for God, who is their judge. Rest in peace small one and let life eternal drive the grief and darkness from the hands that did this. I sin in thought when I feel that SA should go paramilitary again and create a reign of terror - yet I know revenge is not the way of the lord.
Are we sinning if we push back?
Posted by of sadness at 9:42 PM on March 30
sadness, I feel your grief at the atrocities your people are enduring. What they did to the baby speaks of an enormous hate against your people.
When the right time comes your people will have prepared and will take back your homeland, without the rest of the world fighting you and trying to destroy you. To act too soon and without wisdom would be dangerous, “work under the radar” until then.
The anarchy is begining to grow in alot of other places than SA. Nowadays here in Sweden we have suburbs where the police and firefighters do not dare to enter. It’s insane to hear my liberal friends explain this anarchy as nothing more than disenfranchized youth.
