I don't think that was the intent of his post, rather to insist that everything is not as it was before Mandela's election, and that the increase in overt racial violence directed against Afrikaners increased after his elction. The food shortages are well documented,and have been caused by erratic rain and displacement (read:Afrikaners deserting their farms). Here's one link to a story about that.

Be that as it may, what does it have to do with his son mudering his girlfriend?

“Wouldn’t a “white” person have to be insane to live in South Africa? It is only a matter of time until you and your family are murdered.”

Yes, only a matter of time.

So long as Mandela is alive, the mob will be held in check, somewhat.

But once he’s gone, look for a South African “Kristallnacht”.

After that, whites will have as much chance in S.A. as did Jews in Germany in the 40’s...

I agree. When the Afrikaners handed power over to the Africans, the overt racial violence went from Afrikaners against Africans to Africans against Afrikaners.

Still doesn't justify Pistorius Jr.'s behavior or Pistorius Sr.'s rhetoric.

Interesting analogy, given the history of the apartheid Republic.

One of the many ways murders are committed in SA is by simply shooting a driver of a car while it’s stopped/stuck in traffic. One doesn’t have to live on a farm to be targeted. Henke Pistorius has a point that when whites are murdered by blacks, the ANC and world media say/do next to nothing, presumably because it’s payback for apartheid, a trend you may well notice in the U.S. vis a vis slavery. Oscar may well be guilty, but one cannot in good faith blame him for being paranoid.

Nuclear power to the chaos of the streets today, and you see no difference...

So, you are seriously trying to compare the Black run, tribal thugocracy to the old South Africa?! Wow, Apartheid is so nasty, that you had trouble getting a job if you were black and like to chop off limbs with machete’s.

Now there are plenty of jobs for hackers.

An election force on the nation by the Nanny State political Correctness league. Lets cut to the chase cause I am not going to try and play moral equivalence to someone with their fingers in their ears yelling nener nener such as you.

South Africa once was a strict moral country, that was very wealthy and productive compared to its neighbors, now it is virtualy destroyed. Nobody is wealthy except the politicians because they are thieves and killers.

Face it or not, play games with words all you want, but in the old South Africa you could go to a bar at night or a movie and not have to be worried about if you would make it home in once piece or not. Now you take your life in your hands if you go out after sundown.

One thing was proven by the trade sanctions and political correctness games played on South Africa. Apartheid was right. The living hell the nation has degenerated into is EXACTLY what Apartheid was holding back.

When the white south africans came and cleared the farm land the blacks were already farming along the river valleys, the traditional way by carrying the water to their crops in jars on their heads. So the land they cleared was the brush land, one gnarly rooted tree at a time. They put in modern drip irrigation systems and hired blacks as laborers. The productivity per acre was many times more than the traditional farms. But when the land was taken from the whites and given out to the black farmers they stripped out the irrigation systems and tried to water the old way. But the farms are too far from the water. And the guy with the parcel with the irrigation wells does not want to maintain or pay to pump all the water for his new dozens of neighbors.

The short of it is from a massive export to imports with little industry still operating, South Africa is a microcosm of what America is going through in the hands of the Communists.

My point, the main one, that you missed.
