No racism here, only whites can be racist. Farm attacks are just robberies, nothing to get excited about...

These ****en useless pieces of human excrement can call for murder openly on social media but God forbid someone calls them a name or implies that they behave like primates then all hell breaks loose.

One of these wonderful human beings even tagged Herman Mashaba in their tweets, two guesses what will happen with them.

Those accounts are already deleted. The Tweets was real, some users dug up identities where possible, and whether the identities are real... well, that is to be discovered. Let's see how the SAHRC reacts to the complaints.
 
The DA's statement,


DA to refer hate speech social media posts glorifying farm murders to SAHRC for investigation
Click to expand...
The Democratic Alliance (DA) will refer a number of social media posts, which seemingly glorify farm murders and attacks, to the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) to investigate them for hate speech.

A fortnight ago, the DA undertook, as part of our 16 action steps in terms of our Rural Security Strategy, to report what we believe to be hate speech, or hate crimes, to relevant authorities for investigation. This includes the reporting and charging of those on social media, or any other platform, who glorify the torture and murder that has become the hallmark of rural attacks.

The DA has identified the following recent heinous posts on social media which glorify and encourage the attacks on farmers:

2-142x300.jpeg



The DA views these posts as abhorrent and those who post them must be held to account for their vitriolic and hateful utterances.

Hate crimes are defined based on two factors: 1) the act is considered a crime under existing South African criminal law, and 2) the act is motivated in whole or in part by prejudice or hatred regarding an aspect of the victims’ identity. Hate crimes are not simply crimes committed against vulnerable groups, they are in fact crimes committed against individuals because of prejudice that the perpetrator holds against an entire group of people, but directed at an available victim.

Research indicates that there is a direct correlation between hate speech – frequently spoken or sung by political leaders – and an immediate increase in rural attacks, which are frequently accompanied by the most terrible torture. Indeed, there is a marked increase in these instances during which the men, women or children of all races are attacked, immediately after such utterances are publicised.

In 2001 the ANC ordered a committee of inquiry into farm attacks, and the conclusion was that the attacks were overwhelmingly robberies, with virtually no political motive or racial hatred shown. It seems either that the outcome of the inquiry was itself a political statement, or that a new inquiry is needed as a matter of urgency. This is because today there are frequent reports that after the most terrible torture, the perpetrators simply leave and take nothing.

It is unbelievable that those who glory in the idea of the rape and murder of the wives and children of farmers and farmworkers are seldom taken to court. This foulness has at times been romanticised and encouraged by politicians, and those who follow have faced no consequences. The DA will ensure that they do. For the police to record ‘theft of a wallet’ after a farmer has been tortured for hours, must stop. This is not a robbery – it is a hate crime.

Scapegoating farmers for the ANC’s failures in job creation, education, housing and in addressing hunger, is a convenient political tool which is costing lives. Farmers, farmworkers and their loved ones are responsible for feeding our nation and ensuring food security. The senseless murder and torture of these communities need to stop and those who glorify these acts must be held to account.

Mooi River couple attacked on their farm while eating supper
A Mooi River couple were eating supper on Monday night when three unknown men stormed their farmhouse on the P18 road in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands.

The men demanded cash from Allen and Isla Still.

"They also assaulted a 31-year-old man and took cash as well as a Bluetooth speaker. They fled the scene on foot. The victim was taken to hospital for medical attention. A case of house robbery was opened at Mooi River police station," said KwaZulu-Natal police spokesperson Col Thembeka Mbele.

DA agriculture and rural development spokesperson in the province, Christopher Pappas, visited the couple at the Hilton Life Hospital where Allen was being treated for his injuries on Monday night.

"His face was covered in blood when I saw him being wheeled off for scans. He was conscious and did smile when I greeted him. Isla is visibly shaken and in shock," said Pappas.

"The rising violence and criminality in our farming and rural communities must be a

Mooi River couple shaken after assault by thugs during robbery

A MOOI RIVER vet said he was lucky to be alive after being battered with a wooden club during a robbery at Yellow Star stud farm.

Allen Still, 31, walked out of the 10-minute robbery ordeal on Monday night with a fractured hand and stitches to his head. He and his wife Isla, 30, were assaulted by three robbers while having dinner. The Stills are tenants on the thoroughbred breeding farm outside Mooi River.

Both are vets in nearby towns.

“Three thugs burst into the house. They kicked the wooden door open. They beat me up a bit with wooden clubs and knobkerries. They made me lie on the floor and said if I move they will kill me. They took Isla and ransacked the house,” he said.

Farm owner Koos de Klerk heard screams and ran to the house. When he knocked at one of the doors it startled the robbers. Allen said he ran out the back door. The robbers followed him and fled the scene. The robbers wore balaclavas.

“Feeling a bit battered but only one fracture which is really lucky. Isla was unharmed. It was still very traumatic for her. We have friends and family close by. I am out of the hospital so that’s great. It was clearly a farm attack. They hit me with a pick handle as well,” Allen said.

THE POLICE are searching for a family who are believed to have been abducted from their farmhouse in Hartswater on Sunday.

According to Rhino Security & Armed Response the farmhouse was ransacked and blood stains were visible inside the house.

Northern Cape police spokesperson Brigadier Mohale Ramatseba said on Monday that the family – an 83-year-old man, his-79 year-old wife and their 50-year-old daughter – were attacked at their home.

“Their two cars, a Nissan Micra and a silver Mazda CX-5, with registration number YMY 664 GP, were reportedly stolen by unknown attackers,” said Ramatseba.

He stated that the Nissan Micra was found abandoned at Majaneng village, Taung in the North West Province.

From a message I have read the above mentioned CX-5 was pulled over and 4 people arrested. The 50 year olds body has been found after being pointed out by the arrested suspects, while they have pointed out the area of the parents bodies but fading light and fact that bodies were hidden means search was called off until today. One suspect still being sought.

Pity these arrested mofos didn't die in some high speed car chase or shootout with police :mad: .

WA message on a security group, very detailed on specifics so sure it's legit. Official news will probably still come but it's slower, seeing as this article only got published today, while they were probably attacked on 26th already and crime scene was found yesterday.
 
We as citizens need to organise a mass march to parliament. And I mean a huge huge march. Not a piss willy little gathering. We need a leader to stand up and coordinate this. Steenhuizen? Maak 'n plan boet.
