Why stop with the end of apartheid? From what I’ve read SA is still a very brutal place.
the indignity of presenting a white police officer valid identity papers.

Hey CNN, this excuses blowing up innocent civilians and necklacing blacks who refuse to join the ANC?
No worse than what many tribes did to each other on the continent...Rwanda anyone?
Yes Apartheid was rough for blacks. Now the Blacks just murder whites and steal their property.
Same old same old with different people doing the same old.;
The long time president of Magma Copper, worked in South African underground mines for several years before returning to the United States in the 1930s. He had earlier worked in Jerome with white and Mexican American miners. As a result of his disgust at what he had seen at the Palabora Mine in South Africa in this period before the even worse apartheid period, and the miners he had known in Jerome, Magma was the first of the Arizona mining companies to have Mexican American and black supervisors. He was a staunch conservative and big supporter of Barry Goldwater.

Hey CNN… This is why FOX adopted the motto of "fair and balanced!" (of course they too have been disappointing lately!)
If white South Africans, and particularly the Afrikaners, were so brutal and evil, they could have wiped out the black population of not only South Africa, but every surrounding country as well. They had the military and economic power to do it, and with nuclear weapons, could have taken on any country that tried to stop them, even from the West. South Africa was considered Africa’s superpower.
But genocide was never mentioned or considered. The South African government had a political system that was deeply flawed, but also tried in some ways to provide for all the people. Schools, hospitals, transport and homes were provided virtually free of charge, and tribal land was assigned for self-governance. Execution of the policies were poor, and no doubt there were some atrocities. Most good intentions do not survive collisions with reality.
They also fought a proxy war for the west to stop the Soviet Union from accessing the uranium and other mineral riches in Southern Africa. The ANC became the Soviet proxy.
I was thrown into jail for not being able to stand on one foot, perfectly, after a traffic stop.

Do you think this has anything to do with the $17 a mile towing charge in Arizona for DUI arrests?
$700 to tow my car?
Really?
Well now they are doing it to the whites so when all the whites flee the country the natives can go back to raping, maiming and killing each other. CNN won’t bother to report on that.
Are they going to report on the plight of whites under the ANC government? You mean, they’re not? I didn’t think they would.
