Cop boss enraged over old flag

[Nom Chompsky]

I saw some people waving a swastika outside Pretoria hall last week. I think there was some activities in that hall that day. Didn't really stop to observe what was happening.

Possibly the AWB? They're still not dead

 

[Fuma]

AWB hillbillies with their version of the nazi emblem.

Glad I didn't stop, else I would have had that swastika in my ass.

Zuma said we are all allowed our quirks.... He ( Eugene ) should be dead soon and so this will really be history

 

[Nod]

That apply to the swastika as well ?

Depends on the situation and whom are using it.

Until the Nazis used this symbol, the swastika was used by many cultures throughout the past 3,000 years to represent life, sun, power, strength, and good luck.

Shows the mentality of Cele. Can't believe this joker is NPC.

Only brain dead.

When is it not offensive to display the swastika ?

Read the link on my edited post. There is more to the swastika than just the Nazi's.

Of course, why wouldn't it?

Lol - feel free to walk around Israel carrying one and then tell them it symbolises health and life.

Fine, then try it in Sandton or Sea Point.

I actually saw an Indian the other day with one of those 100% boer T-shirt picturing the old flag

 

[onerb]

Is the person in question of a light shade or more of a darker hue?

Apparently she is up to be fired.

Nice Democracy examples set by our chief of police.

Maybe Cele should worry more of thing like this:

Vrou deur 'meneer' verkrag

Vandag, ’n week later, wag sy en haar gesin steeds op die polisie om verklarings af te neem.

Haar man, wat nie tuis was nie, het gesê die polisie het binne oomblikke op die oproep ge reageer, maar het nie ’n polisievrou gestuur om met sy vrou te praat nie. “Daar was seker 30 polisiemanne in my erf wat buite rondgestaan en grappe gemaak het. My vrou het alleen in die huis gesit.”

Volgens die vrou se man het die polisie nie vingerafdrukke of foto’s van sy kinders en vrou se beserings geneem nie.

“Dit is onaanvaarbaar dat die polisie glad nie na die verdagte soek nie,” het hy gesê.

Nice place SA.

I would have told Cele to take his attitude and fsck off. If Metrorail don't have any policies and procedures surrounding what can and can't be in an office he has no right to demand that it be confiscated.

I have a large old SA flag, it never gets displayed but it is a part of my history so I'm not about to get rid of it simply because it might upset some small minded people.

Old SA flag is displayed over the Castle in Cape Town, together with the Union Jack, Dutch flags and the current SA flag.

SAPO has released a series of stamps featuring the SAA logo from days gone by and that also has the old flag on it.

The reality is that the flag is a symbol of opression and a reminder of a tragic past.

At best she may display it at her home in private and not go against the plebiscite.

But but...di's so pragtig ...!

 

[capd]

By that logic it's understandable if people take offense to the new flag. Quick remove it from public display

That minority would be better off in another country.

 

[BBSA]

Are you saying the people who do not approve of murder, rape, hijackings, corruption and incompetence must leave this country?

BTW. Where must they go?
