Kruger statue has to go

[STS]

Not when those cultures have no tolerance for others...

like other cultures are lazy and more dishonest than others? we can't generalise dude

 

[Voicy]

Huh, Kruger died in 1900, long before apartheid which the Brits actually started?

Apartheid started with Jan Van Riebeeck, don't you remember? *g*

I thought it started when the guys with the spears and shields, chased off the little guys that draw on rocks?

They going to upset the boere.

I wonder how many Afrikaners still go to church square in Pretoria?

"The cost cannot be compared to the human rights offences experienced by our people during the apartheid era."

Um... Julius, Paul Kruger was president of ZAR 50 years before Apartheid. I know you failed matric, but this is ridiculous.

+1

That's when it started.

hehehe.... i'm guessing many of these guys calling for the removal of the statue and building & erecting of a new one, have zero idea what it would cost.... judging by what it costs to do a tiny removal & rebuild I'd say, this could cost more than most commoners' annual salary. (especially if one of the ANC's friend of a friend gets the contract to do it...)
many of these are the same idiots who go to sleep at nite, hungry and pissedoff coz there is no food and no jobs, but hmmmm..... that statue is a real threat to the community, duh!
Real forward thinking!
I have no feeling towards oom Paul's statue one way or the other, when I go past the plein at the odd occasion all I see is the birds crapping on him too.
remove/change/replace as u like, but jeez guys, if u can't get past your own racist ideals, at least get your frigin priorities in order!

Julius Malema is just South Africa's biggest troll.

No no .. only white on black transgressions count under the apartheid card.

 

[zulgin]

The fact remains that Paul Kruger was to the Afrikaners what George Washington was to the Americans. Good luck on trying to remove this one 'peacefully'

Troll-emmer doing what?

This is getting ridiculous.

Next he will demand that all whites leave South Africa for some other countries.

I hope he does. The more ridiculous his comments get, the less people are likely to listen to him.

Huh. I've seen his support growing. Apparently that's what the next generation of voters want to hear.

 

[DigitalSoldier]

Mandela's statue remind me of Apartheid and terrorism...

 

[DigitalSoldier]

I agree...it's not this bad in N.America/Europe/Asia, but here in SA? Probably the worst...you wonder why during the World Cup people thought this place was still segregated and full of racism, IT IS.

Time to file those visas.

Agreed.

According to a recent study the majority of racists in the country are black but that is clearly evident just look at how many people are currently supporting the ANC racist movement.

Can you imagine what would have if all the whites were to leave this country ? he won't be able to afford his Breitling watches anymore or continue his lavish lifestyle.

 

[HideInLight]

What about the Kruger Rand?

Not when those cultures have no tolerance for others...

The ANCYL revealing their true mission your sense of tolerance? Tolerate black culture but destroy white heritage. Is that what you condone?

 

[Vrotappel]

You don't have to look for racism on this section of the site, it finds you. I mean look at the undertone of your comments...you will of course deny any racial motivation but it is clear as day, I am sure a lot of guests who are reading these messages(not logged in) would agree, especially those who have traveled the can compare. Trust me, your message was delivered and felt. I am sure you feel great.

If you don't catch the 'hate' in some of these posts then I guess you are transparent to it, maybe because this is how people in SA always are(hence the reputation of this country as a segregated nation).

Oh well, such is life...let's get back on topic!

Stop the innuendos and RBP racist posts. Obviously an attack on heritage will have emotional responses. Don't confuse this with racism. Not everything a white man does is racist.

what do you ppl expect when we have a country run by a bunch retards.

 

[BigBullBully]

what do you ppl expect when we have a country run by a bunch retards.

More importantly what does that say about the voters that put them in power, oh wait that's also the white mans fault.
