Ha, ha, reminds me of the sketch about what happens when reparations are paid.

“And one thing I’ve learned is that you take every new law or government action at face value for starters. Then you impute at least 3 times the malevolent possible outcomes...and that will prove to be the case EVERY TIME.

DHS was created to prevent another moslem 9/11. Now they literally give you tips on how to fry a thanksgiving turkey, spy on everything Americans do, raid guitar factories over obscure and dubious hardwood harvesting laws, etc etc.

If they made this law, they meant it...and three times more at least.”

Very astute comment, DesertRhino.

My S.A friends were supposed to visit me here in Las Vegas for 2 weeks starting today... tourist visas revoked yesterday. The state dept in conjunction with an African woman had copies of all their WhatsApp conversations... they are very scared for their future.

If only we can get Trump to apply sanctions on South Africa.

You can only confiscate what people have once... after that, they stop producing.

I worked with an Indian H1B whose dad ran a general store in Idi Amin's Uganda. Idi kicked out the Indians and gave their posessions/businesses to his cronies. Unfortunately. they weren't aware of the concept of inventory replenishment, and when the stocks ran out, they shut down.

He said that some years later his dad got an "all-is-forgiven" letter from the post-Amin government asking him to come back. Dad didn't reply.

Ha, ha, good for him. They probably would have confiscated his business a second time.

The Brits have never been fans of Boers which likely explains the BBC attitude.

Yep...I worked two years in Tanzania, out in the sticks on a mine project. I had an apartment in Dar for 6-months and if the Indians, many 4th generation in country, were to pack up and go away, eastern Africa would collapse in a week.

If our leftist morons want to see real racial discrimination, I recommend a few months in Tanzania and Kenya. The animosity of black Africans against Indians is unbelievable, and against whites only slightly less.
