Isn’t Georgia cosiderably colder than South Africa?

I’ve heard that there is a growing trend of white South Africans emigrating. The emigrants see major problems ahead, and don’t see a promising future for their families in the new South Africa.

As someone else said, all h**l could break loose after Mandela passes on. Perhaps the radicals have been holding back just because of the reverence they have for him. Once he’s gone, who knows.

If we continue on the same path we’re on today, what happened in South Africa WILL happen here, folks.

Mark my words.

Sadly the British and Dutch seem to welcome the prospect of genocide of White South Africans. Better that they are dead over there than continue to make noise or remind us of the failures of socialist African dictatorships.

South African Jews have been getting out for over 30 years. There is quite a large community of Jews from South African in Atlanta.

They may as well wake up to reality. The day of the white man in Africa is over. Any temporary measures or agreements with the government for their protection will eventually fail.

They should make whatever deal they can with the government to purchase their land and get out.

It doesn’t matter that they have roots in S. Africa going back several hundred years. They are stil viewed as interlopers and are in danger. The huge disparity between a well-to-do minority of whites and a poor black majority will eventually end the uneasy peace between the races.

One of my classmates in high school was a girl from South Africa, or whose family was from SA. Not surprisingly (given where we were at, a major university town) she was a total ANC-supporting screaming leftie.

I sometimes wonder what she thinks of the situation in SA now.
