[)roi[), please correct me if I am presuming too much.
Not at all I value your insight...
I simply was trying to express that whether we like it or not, things have to change, and unfortunately for the white South African, things will for a considerable period of time have to change for the better of the PDIs,...
I don't however say that we should just sit back and never question the motives behind decisions (this of course is important to maintain balance), but rather I feel that it's a also important to recognise the good that has been achieved, and there are many examples... We're human and we all make mistakes; so until we start looking at ourselves as South Africans, rather than continually trying to ascertain some hidden meaning along colour lines, we will never be able to overcome our problems... I admire the young children, as they have been fortunate enough to not see the colour lines...
I also applaud the resolve of the PDIs to not want to seek violent retrobution, this could have been a lot worse. I too realise that I as a white South African male I will have to endure a number of hardships (as is only fair considering our past), for most probably the rest of my lifetime, but that is so much better than what could have happened, a look across our boarder at Zimbabwe, will reveal how bad things could have been.
