Because black people in South Africa used to own land until the white people took it away?

Not how it happened.

Maybe you might want to elaborate ? Was South Africa a sparsely populated land prior to colonization by Portuguese and Dutch traders , later followed by Dutch and English settlers ?

It's the millions of (Rhodesians) who fled from Mugabe and poured into S.Africa that have nothing and they will take what they want from black or white S.Africans.

Lol now they are begging for them to come back, I guess they want to get the ones that got away after they are taught how to farm again.

The pendulum swings left and then right. Maybe some day it will settle in the center... maybe not. Indigenous peoples all over the world have good reason to be pissed at white settlers. Maybe some day in the distant future we will grow up and learn to get along.

You do know that their was white natives that had their land taken over as well even by white settlers, Genghis Khan's clan was guilty of this as well. My ancestor's moved to Canada because of it ;)

Yes, because white people do not discriminate and have no prejudice cuz they'll get anybody, even their own.
BTW, wasn't Genghis Khan oriental?

They were too far away and he ran out of interest.

The mongol steel piercing arrows and light cav would have slaughtered the Brits.
