    On a scale of 1 to 10 how would you rate the relevance of your post ? Heck I'll even throw in 0 -10 to make it easier for you.

    Thanks, I will allocate the 0 to you. Pity you did not include a negative range at all.

    I'd have been sure to include it if we were estimating your IQ.

    :P

    Now anything to say that pertains to the topic at hand ? It's "the lies and bogus stats created by the far right to purposely flare racial hatred and tension in people. Why do people allow this nonsense to penetrate their skepticism shields ?"

    You seem like someone who defends these far right groups. Do you believe all the stats they present to be valid and honest without attempt to alarm and agitate people racially ?

    Really ?

    I don't care about Zuma or the A.N.C at all so don't try and double guess my agenda. I've told you eye to eye what it is. And are either the "facts' presented by the FF nonsense or they are not. That is the question. Well ?
    why do you worry about such a small party anyway? Also, I wouldn't consider the FF as FAR right my bro.

    As for the farm murders, I don't think anyone has accurate stats on this. I doubt government has accurate stats in any case and if they do, they're hiding it. What some people are worried about is not so much the stupid genocide issue, but rather agriculture in SA - the impact it will have on local agriculture in future. So far there's NO negative impact btw, other than the loss of loved ones

    If all you are going to do on a thread I started is call me an ANC member then first explain to me following :

    1) Even if I am an ANC member what has that got to do with the validity of the claims of the FF ? I could make the same claims as Genghis Khan or Mother Theresa and it would not affect their validity.The credibility of the claims they made comes down to maths and stats not personal emotion.
    2) Why don't you know Malema was kicked out of the ANC ?

    Not that it really matter at all but for the record I suggest everyone votes DA. I did. I am after all not fond at all of the corrupt ANC.

    I will repeat this 5 times so it sinks in and you can't pretend you missed it.

    If Farm Murders are actually a non-issue as you say they are, then why are you making such an issue out of it?
    If you don't want to flare up racial tensions, then why are you singling out the White Right?

    sorry, you say you have no other agenda, but we are sceptical.

    If a kid is thrown kittens off a bridge and I at one time single out that kid because he does more than others, does it mean I support other people throwing kittens off bridges ?

    You're on ignore until you say anything relevant to the topic.

    PS : Yours not your's.

    "That apple is yours."

    You're effectively saying...

    "That apple is your is" or you're suggesting I and perhaps even other singular people exist in plural form to you. In which case again I'd consider the anti psychotics.

    Great so I think we can conclude the FF stat is rubbish ?

    No one seem to be able to post any alternative view. Rather the tactic seems to be to build straw men ?

    Must be farmers.

    Ga dum dooosh !

    @baxter, from your opening post you asked the question "Now how reliable is this statistic ?"
    Then you blame the media for using false info. How do you or anyone else here know whether the stats are accurate or not? mmm?
