Article: ANC defends 'Kill the Boer' song

Just a technicality here but Malema did not say "kill the boers" he said "shoot the boers". Now as much as some people are getting accused of defending the ANC those opposed to them need to perhaps ensure they don't misquote things for their advantage. Yes, we could interpret it to mean the same thing but bottom line is that "kill them" leaves no doubt.

Further to this everyone attacks those that defend, or even seem to defend, the ANC on here yet if many of the things said on here, by a lot of members, were said on an ANC forum, they would be viewed with as much disgust! This forum is not meant to have any political affiliations as far as I am aware... just something to ponder.

In saying this I will add that I am as appalled by his comments as the next (sensible, educated, intelligent) man.

Johannesburg - ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema is facing a barrage of complaints to the police and chapter nine institutions over his latest racial outburst, after he led students in singing "kill the boer".

Freedom Front Plus leader and Deputy Agriculture Minister Pieter Mulder laid a criminal charge against Malema at the Brooklyn police station, Pretoria on Wednesday.

Mulder said the use of the slogan contravened section 16 of the Constitution.

"In terms of this section, no person may advocate hate which is based on the grounds of race, ethnicity, gender or religion and which incites action to cause harm to others.

"The FF Plus is convinced that Mr Malema, with this action, advocated and incited hatred which could cause harm to citizens and makes himself guilty of the advocating of hate speech, the FF Plus demands that the Saps investigates the case and take action," Mulder said in a statement.

'They are rapists'

He said Police Minister Nathi Mthethwa last week promised farmers the police force would try and reduce farm murders.

"Mr Malema's use of the hate speech slogan creates the opposite atmosphere," said Mulder.

Malema, according to the Sowetan, led students at the University of Johannesburg in a song with the words: "Shoot the boere [farmers], they are rapists".

He told students that former president Nelson Mandela had convinced blacks to forgive, but they should never forget what was done to them.

AfriForum Youth chairperson Ernst Roets said the organisation would submit a complaint to the Equality Court in Johannesburg.

Roets said it was not the first time Malema sang the song reminiscent of the late Peter Mokaba, a former ANC Youth League leader known for chanting the slogan, "kill the boer, kill the farmer" during the struggle against apartheid.

Malema sang it at his birthday celebrations in Polokwane last week, in a province where six farmers were murdered in the past month, Roets said.

"Julius Malema has become the biggest embarrassment of not only the youth, but also of the country.

"There is no way in which you can dismiss the song as something that simply has to be viewed in a political context and that doesn't have any real consequences," he said.

Just a technicality here but I did not say "kill the Malemas" I said "shoot the Malemas".
So now it is all fine? Who wants to go shoot him with me as it seems we may do that?
 
The fact that us as individuals can't possibly do anything about such atrocities is sickening and worrying. Sometimes I wonder what would happen if whites created their own independent state, which according to my knowledge is allowed in the constitution (Orania anyone) and we did the whole Israel thing... just putting it out there..
 
America America

We have to be realistic. I have resigned my job, got permanent residency and will be joining the rest of our people in Perth.
That is where I belong.
Actually I belong in France, but let's not get technical. :)
