Johannesburg - A Pretoria orphanage says it is no longer getting financial support from large companies as 70% of the children in its care are white.

Elzane van der Merwe of the Jacaranda children’s home said: “The only answer that the children’s home is getting is: ‘Sorry, you don’t meet the criteria for 100% black economic empowerment (BEE),” reported Beeld.

But Van der Merwe said the children’s home couldn’t choose which children to take in.

“To us a child is a child. We don’t discriminate. Here we have 250 children between 18 months and 18 years that need care, regardless of race or gender.”

She said that even though the department of trade and industry had withdrawn the new suggested BEE codes, welfare organisations countrywide were still affected.

The suggested codes award points to companies for their BEE programmes and donations.

She said their income had dropped drastically due to the BEE codes, even though there was an increase in the children that needed care.

The home only looks after children placed in its care by court order.

How can you even begin to justify this bigotry?

You can't. Because remember it was never about individual children, but about perception of doing the politically correct thing. The concept of political correctness is a Marxist one. But South Africans love Marxism and it's not even only ANC supporters who deep down inside would think this really is bigotry - speak to any old woman in a township and she'd agree with you that it's BS. It's a Red thing and it comes from Europe. But since the elite white BS'ers have taught the ANC this nonsense, don't expect it to stop.

It's also a typical modern ethic of morality. One is not moral by doing the right thing, but by pretending to do the right thing. The right thing of course is loosely defined and goes with progressive ideology.
 
What a load of tripe, the situation in the OP and the post above ......

Just like cream cheese and tomatoes.

So now we're talking capitalism, or is it conservatives?
