Song ban 'going overboard'

[Ronjay]

Lol, I vaguely remember that. Was it Sweet'n'Short? Riaan Cruywagen was also in that speaking Zulu iirc.

Yeah, I think it was. LMAO at it. That Leon really has a sick sense of humour.

Yeah, maybe. But the fact remains, farmers are an easy target. Hence the farm killings. All I'm saying is that it's easy to say "I'f farms are invaded, we'll be able to fight back, win, because we are better". That's arrogant, and stupid. The farmers have no combat training, are armed with .22's at worst, shotguns at best, live large distances from each other and have no killer instinct.

Whereas a mass of 500 Malema supporters instructed by that tw^t to invade farms and kill farmers, may not be trained in warfare but will be descending en-mass on the farm, probably all armed with anything from pangas to AK's, will take advantage of the large distances between farms, and would love to kill these farmers in the most horrific and torturous way there sick imaginations can think of.

Yeah, the farmers might organize themselves in time, but Hiroshima will be nothing compared to the devastating outcome the farmers will get.

I’ll give you ten to one on the farmers.

All this talk of blacks vs whites is, IMO unproductive and possibly dangerous. It just plays into Malema's divise rhetoric. And it draws the line in completely the wrong place, closing the wagons around the white minority as if the blacks, Indians and coloureds are somehow our enemies.

The enemy isn't blacks. The enemy isn't whites. The enemy is the corrupt, selfish, greedy, entitled, shortsighted politicians and their cronies who don't care how much damage they do to the country so long as it lines their pockets. The resulting crime, lack of infrastructure maintenance, and economic damage are hurting all South Africans, white or black, who try to make an honest living.

If SA goes the way of Zimbabwe we are all screwed regardless of race. So if we're forced to draw battle lines, we'd damn well better draw them in the right place. On our side: South Africans of all races who care about their country. On the enemy side: Malema style racists and the corrupt politicians who wield him like a rabid dog.

Suddenly, THEY'RE in the minority.

To paraphrase Terry Pratchett, if you're going to be in a war between vastly unequal sides - endeavour to be on the winning side

I agree with you, now if only others would. The problem is that rational thought is quick to fly out the window when told they are going to be killed. Unfortunately opinions are easily forged but hard to sway. We are taught by our parents, black or white, that the other race is not to be trusted, that they hate us, that they want to kill us. Fear is a great motivator for hatred. This coupled with human nature (as our history shows, our tendencies are far from a 'civilized' nature and very barbaric) and the instigation of politicians is making a "racial" war almost unavoidable.

Duh! No s**t Sherlock. Well, DO something about it (rapidly). Unfortunately this sounds like the pious hot-air we’ve been subjected to for the last 15 years. “We must...”. “We should...”. “We need...”. “We condemn crime...criminals beware...the full might of the law” (= to a crippled, anemic mouse). And similar BS. Things aren’t fixed by some moronic minister pontificating on how ‘terrible’ things are. Start with sorting-out the criminals in government. Start at the top (JZ).

Start at the top? You mean like how putting blacks in the Springbok team will magically turn all black schoolchildren into ace rugby players?

Nah. I say start at the bottom. Or even the middle. Start with the people you meet every day. They are the ones who have the power to change things.

And if you find that they're not listening to your message, perhaps you should try to stop telling them how inferior they are and how grateful they should be to the European colonisers and how stupid they are for voting ANC and so on.

Don't demonise the ANC. There's no point, even if it is full of demons.

Demonise the ANC's behaviour.

You are missing something : The majority of the people will continue to vote for JM, JZ and the corrupt politicians.

Just like Mad Bob still attracts close to 50% of the Zim vote.

It's not going to change !!!
