Yet Andile is still at large

yeah, exactly

"It's a call to say if a black man stole a packet of beans, he would have been arrested in public, but people like Markus Jooste, who robbed in public, it is okay for them to not to be arrested. Why? What are we waiting for? No, things should change," he added.

If the black mans name is Jacob Zuma he can steal 270 million from the public and people still elect him. None so blind as those who refuse to see.

We dont vote for individuals as President.

 

[HennieWelkom]

why is what jooste did so wrong for this guy but the constant theft of government money by the ANC is fine? Tell me please how does that work? Do we hold white people to a different standard than the government?

Not at all, they are nowhere to be found when some white farmer runs amok and runs people over with a tractor or a Hilux. I don't remember them saying anything to condemn the action of the two coffin guys or rushing to be the first to comment in condemnation of many other cases involving white people. But hey I know how you guys feel about these things, I have never expected anything.

Lol. You said one of their own. Are the cases you mention involving Afriforum members? Because that's news to me. If they claimed to stand exclusively for all white people then you may have a point. But they don't, so you don't.

I do think though (which is actually what I was getting at originally) that if Ernst Roets, for example, were to stand up and threaten to kill the black people, the organisation would distance itself from him and most likely, at the very least, would kick him out. That's just a hunch but let's keep playing this game - it's fun comparing apples with arseholes.

Many other of his other paintings were much worse.

I totally can't find Marcus Jooste getting head in there. I've been looking like a game of Where's Wally.

 

[HennieWelkom]

Are you ignorant or just ****ing dumb.

did he make any paintings of jz getting head?

The part about bias is not true.

I can't find the court ruling at moment, this will have do,

The judgment also contains important points regarding the purpose of damages. Sutherland said the amount of R150 000 in the Sparrow case had gained “notorious default status”, but having read the judgment, he could not determine “why the sum was thought appropriate”.

There had been no assessment of Sparrow’s financial standing, and the sanction did not seem related to whether she could or could not afford to pay it. He said the amount seemed “a thumb-suck intended to serve as a measure of society’s indignation”. This approach he called “crude and undeserving of endorsement.”

“Imposing the payment of sums of money which may be ruinous to a respondent does not achieve an outcome the Equality Act encapsulates,” he said. These “huge money payments” were “counter-productive” and did not serve to rehabilitate.

Velaphi Khumalo is fortunate his case landed before Judge Sutherland. And while some may perceive it unjust that he was not made to pay higher damages, the ruling instead calls into question the heavy-handedness of other sanctions that have recently been meted out.

More importantly, however, the case is a victory for the rule of law and the fundamental right of individuals, whatever their race, to be treated equally before the law.

And while Khumalo’s counsel were representing their client, their argument that the words did not amount to hate speech is highly questionable. What is most concerning, however, is that the LRC – a well-funded and leading human rights organisation – made submissions that might have contributed to devastating jurisprudential consequences had they been accepted. In particular, their argument about the identity of the target group of these kinds of utterances.

I know, there's no bias...

OKOKOK

i officially retract my previous criticism if government theft and jooste's theft offends him both then he is at least not a hypocrite.

 

[3WA]

Hell no, nothing as sordid.

Trust JZ not to give a reach around. The man has no consideration.

We dont vote for individuals as President.

He's still elected by people though isn't he?

 

[EADC]

He's still elected by people though isn't he?

One could argue that ANC MP's can nominate anyone and vote for them.

 

[Willie Trombone]

Who else smells a rat?
This has got to be orchestrated to draw attention to his (and some politicians) cause - AKA white monopoly capital. Arresting him will just stoke the fire.

This is bull.

 

[HennieWelkom]

Shows you in the African mind if you are a white man who steals money you are an agent of white monoply capital and if you are a black man who steals money you are a natural born leader, jeez that is some ****ed up morality.

 

[Willie Trombone]

Maybe they meant to arrest Andile and just can’t spell?

 

[Nick333]

Can't say I see why he was arrested, but this art work is indicative of the racist myopia that has fccked this country up. Black people have been stealing fccking billions for all to see since 1994, dumb fcck. Zuma nearly stole the whole god damn country ffs.
