So sad to hear this :(

Her balls? :erm:

Some people become offended when the term 'savages' is bandied about. Aside from the generalisation, I don't understand why to be honest.
 
And this... http://www.peherald.com/news/article/9793

AN elderly Port Elizabeth woman was found bludgeoned to death in her Walmer garden flat yesterday morning.

The gruesome discovery was made by her domestic worker shortly after 8am.

Marjory Uren, 93, had been battered to death with a cloth-covered brick, thought to have been used by her as a door stop. Her body was lying face-down in a pool of blood.

The blood-soaked brick was found in her bedroom.

Although police suspect the murder may have been the result of a botched house robbery, there were no signs of forced entry and Uren's TV and purse were still inside the flat. However, some of her jewellery appeared to have been taken.

The Prospect Road property has a main house and two garden flats.

Ya I have no problem calling people that do this kind of thing savages. I always wonder at the offended parties when that word comes out and it is an apt description of what they are.
Please note that the word they does not apply to any general populace but to the specific parties that did this to this little girl.
 
Hard to see anything good about a country when you read an article like this... It makes everything about South Africa seem abominable :(

Would you say Jeffery Dahmer was a savage?
 
Call them what you will, but this is how they roll ..

A thunderstorm during President Jacob Zuma’s visit to an Eastern Cape clan’s celebration is a sign of the ancestors rejecting him, a lawyer for the Jola clan has said.

Zulu monarch King Goodwill Zwelithini wants to cleanse the men of his nation of the spirits that breed violence.

The ritual he wants to perform, probably next month, is known as ukukhumelana umlotha ("the sharing of ash") and he hopes it will lead people to forsake their political differences in favour of their tribal links.

People had been using muti during violence between ANC and the Inkatha Freedom Party.

The king is the only person that can put a stop to these killings and perform rituals because he has nothing to do with politics.

And we all read about the white rabbit & bullet-melting muti during Marikana. :mad:

BWAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAAAA!! Jeezuz wept .. I think I might just have torn something I laughed so hard
 
AFAIK this is nothing new, I grew up on farms 20 years ago and remember being warned of being killed for muti.

This is the price of credulity and it seems never ending, especially in countries where education is lacking.

Her parts will be ingested by a someone who wants a bigger penis or someone who wants higher school marks. Cold hard truth.

Yes and of course that represents every single Zulu person out there. Like all Roman Catholics are kiddy fiddlers.

Unfortunately your comparison is not entirely correct. And even more unfortunate is the fact that the people you want to convince otherwise, are a bit more clever then you think. While only 1 in a 100 clerics are that way, about one in 2 Africans (if not more), believe in muti stuff :( Sad I know.

I would say 70% when it comes to this superstitious stuff, I just think about chameleons, snakes, centipedes, tokoloshes, gays, owls, albinos and a few other things and I reckon 'africans' comes to mind.

1 - please use descriptive thread titles. You can tell us how sad you are in the post.
2 - quote some of the article so people know wtf it is you're talking about - again, proper thread title would help.
3 - female balls? :wtf: Just checked twitter and Caster is still alive and running...
 
Reminds me of an article about a township beating a dog because the owner was a witch.

I would say at least 70% of black people in this country are superstitious like this, probably more.

Same reason why the people above me are so schit scared of my black dog even though he's a puppy and loves people, they even let/chased him out the complex and I had to fetch him from the spca.

Although I hate to stereotype, maybe there are also white people who are scared of the tokolosh? Maybe there are also white sangomas?

Sigh, this is supposed to be the 21st century.

Agree with point one and two. Nothing wrong with point 3 though. The male balls are the testicles. The female has the ovaries. Honestly, some female balls are bigger then some males :D In both senses of the word.

So you think they all approve the extreme acts in the story?

I have no problem seeing Chinese idiots with small winkles as savages. But the whole rhino horn thing is probably more to do with a Yemeni savage than the Chinese idiot.
