They’ll say some Hispanic guy killed him in cold blood.
Nelson Mandela was a communist agitator, married to a mass murderer, who took the helm of modern and proserpous country and turned large areas of it into a 3rd world cess pool.
How about a Moment of Silence? I’m sure the Kenyan would see no harm in asking all Americans to observe a Moment of Silence.
(loud fart rips the air)
HEY! WHO FARTED?
SA has turned into a cesspool since the ANC took over. I know people that still live there.
Will O go back to “his homeland” for the funeral?
More the reason Obumbler will order it for 30 days.
As for whether they are better off now than they were then, I suppose that would depend on who you talk to. White South Africans may say no. But black South Africans would probably prefer the way things are now, with all its flaws, to life under apartheid where they had no control over their lives.
Like father, like son.

“Legacy: We hear only the good. What is the state of South Africa as a result if Mandela’s rule? Are they better off now?”
My boss has gone to South Africa on hunting trips, three times now. He also housed a foreign exchange student from there for almost a year. He describes a dangerous nation, where there are areas white just plain cannot enter at night. Specifically, his exchange student lamented that more and more areas were becoming ‘off limits’ to whites, at night.
He also described tha absurdity of the AIDS epidemic there. Some high level official had sex with an underage relative...now the media outrage over this was not the incest, infidelity, or statutory rape. No, the outcry was that he had not used a condum. Adding to the absurdity, this official retorted that he had taken a shower prior to the intercourse, which apparently is widely believed in the region to prevent std’s. So, the political discourse, during the entire time my boss was in country on one of his trips, was whether or not this guy was lying about taking the shower.
And I look at the Pistorius case. Even if you believe he is guilty, it is hard to ignore the paranoia he had, in prior Facebook posts...or the fact that he lived in a walled community with razor wire.
Such is present day South Africa - a Mad Max style world, where violence and ignorance rule the day.
I know people who have fled from SA to the ATlanta area. Their stories are chilling.
This is an excellent film. It is available from NETFLIX.

America was instrumental in the decline and fall of the Africaans’ country and culture. America empowered the communist Mandela, so I would think that our socialist phony president will order all flags flown at half-mast and America’s phony president will kneel on his little rug, face eastward and pray to his god.

you saying Obama is trying to follow in his foot steps
We do not lower the US flag for foreign people. I KNOW mine in my yard will not be. Neither will they at our church since I am the one who handles that also. I will not put some foreign person in the same category as US soldiers and such that we do the half mast for.
Nelson Mandela could have instantly been released from prison at any point he chose.
All he had to do was repudiate violence as a means of public debate.
Yes, he is/was a world changer, a mover and shaker, but he was the antithesis of a Gandhi.
