The latest xenophobic attacks in South Africa is escilating it is so sad that these ppl came here to make a better life for them and there families but these arrogant South Africans that can't do anything for themselfs are looting businesses killing inocent woman and children. They don't think that there actions will cause big problems for South Africa they killing these foreingners if the foreigners start killing them then the government is going to call it terror attacks but now they calling these looters les fortunate and poverty driven but when the foreighners hit back they are terrorist.

Apartheid just turned around before it was the white's oppressing the other races now it's the black's oppressing they wnt to rule everthing and everyone. Its so sad to see wht they doing with Nelson Mandela's legacy.

Its all abt nigerians and pakistanis and indians taking over here... Foreighners are too many in S.A. This is heaven on earth for them. Its got nothing to do with apartheid...

Wht are they taking over they are doing ther own business many pakistani's struggled to start there businesses and these ppl just wnt to take everything for free someone elses sweat and hard work cause they can't work for themselfes apartheid is long over 20 years to be acact but they still blaming other ppl for there failiares these pakistani's came here to better there lives and to loose everything you worked for is the worst pain you can go trough. These ppl that murdered these ppl didn't even think about these inocent ppl's family mabe they don't have an income cause they send there son's here to work for them there husbands,fathers they lost them.

It would have been good if apartheid can continue because these south africans are nothing more than animals.

As in I find it ironic that you would with a straight face, I assume, say something so bigoted in supposed opposition to the bigotry expressed by those within South Africa's borders that are attacking those from other countries.

Do you think your bigotry is somehow better than theirs? Either bigotry is acceptable or it is not, one cannot have it one way when it is convenient and another when it is not.

Finally, neither of us has lived through apartheid and cannot begin to comprehend what it was like for that nations citizens. "It would have been good" if you had kept this in mind and not allowed your anger to get the better of you. We are all adults here, no? It behooves us to act as such.

Prayer is always good, prayer accompanied by action is even better.

Pakistani foreigners? No... Pakistani foreigners are legally in South Africa. they don't cross borders to get here. they go through customs. The whole thing makes me naar. aside from xenophobia, there is now tribal issues too. Much hatred towards the Zulus at the moment. the hate speech is extremely violent, xhosas saying terribly violent things about zulus, vendas calling zulus animals. ect ect. xenophobia is very bad, but imagine full on tribal conflict too. And then the bloody statue thing, people ( geloftlike republikeine) just waiting for the afrikaans monument to be defaced/vanidilised and then? xenophobia, tribal conflict and civil war... Jirre! Shall I find a cave so long? the average south african has narrow vision. a few foreigners did something, now all foreigners are bad. A few Zulus went barbaric, now all zulus are barbaric. All white people are racist, because their grandparents are.

As for apartheid, so over that whole thing really... Someone needs to develope a post apartheid vaccine. Inject all those who are born free, still angry and still yearning for it.

This is a little off topic... did anyone else laugh when they heard Ghandi got defaced? I found it funny because white people were almost crying... I didn't get that. Then I did after a few minutes... When I realized that ignorance reigns supreme... For one, the average white person has no idea that Ghandi was infact a racist asshole. And those who know, are probably racist themselves and are saddened by his defacement because they share his sentiments. ignorance and ignorance in a mob, is the most dangerous thing. It makes humans predators, in an unnatural way... Because we were granted superior intellect, but we choose to be Extremely stupid. Like xenophobes...

I think apartheid is the best for animals involved in killing Africans like themselves. I am not a bigot as you ignorantly think. In nigeria, with as high as 70% unemployment we still don't go about killing foreigners. Not to talk of south Africa with lesser percentage of unemployment. What will happen if south Africa faces what Nigeria is facing? They will destroy the world.

Irony once again, anyway I'll keep this relatively brief and bypass the normal back and forth:

What you "think" is of less concern to me than the facts. You would brand all citizens of a country as sub human for the actions of a small percentage, a position you will not be dissuaded from in spite of the actual facts. I cannot speak for Nigeria but in every other English speaking country in the world that is the text book definition of "bigot". That is not ignorance, merely fact, what is ignorance however is prattling on about something (apartheid) you have no knowledge or experience of. It is no more acceptable than saying the Jews should suffer another holocaust because of the actions of a percentage of them in Israel.

But do not let me or the facts spoil your fun, I believe you were busy making my point for me. As you were ...

If zulus kill, what will you call them, south africans true or false. What has the south african government done to stop the killings? Nothing. When apartheid was in south Africa, could they go about killing africans? No because they had their own problems to solve. Now they are free, any small thing they start killing other africans. I really did know what Im saying.
