Who would they vote for? The DA doesn't(or maybe isn't perceived to be) seem to be a multi-cultural party (I'm sure you read or heard of how uncomfortable black people are in Cape Town), hence why the DA is making moves to advance Mazibuko etc. The DA policies in itself do not appeal to the majority as much as the ANCs policies (of course the follow through is a different matter). The DA is led by a white woman and people still are uncomfortable voting for what is perceived as a white party. The DA is making inroads but its slow and they need something to tip the scales in their favour. The other 'black' parties are either too small or really don't offer much benefit for them to vote for. Also a lot of them are sort of area specific or cultural specific.
Ideally some party like COPE was supposed to the breakaway party who the masses could vote for as an alternative but we all know how that ended. I guess the best hope we have is that the ANC split into 2 (or more) groups, who will then battle each other.
Well, white people feel uncomfortable in ANC areas.
Not because they are racist, but because nothing works.
A fine example is the Joburg Metro, one of the most incompetent organisations on earth.
Note : Actually, I take that back, there are other ANC municipalities that are much worse, especially in the Eastern Cape.

Black people do too, but they'd rather protest than force a change of vote. The ANC knows this, and that's why nothing will ever change until somebody else is elected. Although there may be a few riots if that happens, what with the ANC openly inciting violence by calling upon their members to support Zuma in force.

i will tell you why he cried, because he could not stand the pressure and could not answer the bloody question.
A disgrace and a shame.
Every day we are going further and further backwards.
Can we not just fcking get on with building the country?
No, too much power and money at stake....lets fuel the race war
I see the judged ordered that no footage of the crying lawyer was to be broadcast.
What's happening is that this type of thing is again dividing the nation down racial lines just like those twats on twitter. The ANC want this country for themselves and feel it is their right to take everything and I mean everything. They would be very happy to get the whites out except those in their pockets and also those blacks who don't agree with them. They will/are going to change the constitution to benefit them alone in the disguise of doing it for the nation.
All these things are just adding fuel to the fire and things will not get better as there is most likely more hate brewing between the races which has yet to spill over.
They just mentioned now on etv when they showed the case so I went to Youtube but saw nothing there either but it must be there somewhere surely.
etv won't release it. It's not in their interests. Seem my earlier posts about the difficulty of gettin cameras into courts.
