in reply to bar sinister...
According to international statistics South Africa has one of the highest murder rates in the world. It appears that non-white South Africans are being killed off at an even greater rate than white South Africans. As of 2009 about 3,000 South African farmers had been killed since 1994. That is an ugly number, but it is hardly genocide.
As usual there is more than one side to the problem. The blacks might govern South Africa, but whites still control over 80% of its wealth and most of its farmland. I suspect that if blacks were given a greater share of their own country the murder rate for everyone might decline.
Where did you get your stats from... how do you know its only been 3000 farmers... you cant trust the stats that SA says, they dont publish half of the truth because if they did, foriegn tourists wouldnt want to go there!! Ok so there have been more non white murders than white murders.... but with what... say 2 million whites and 47 million blacks... how can you compare that... the stats are wrong about how many whites there are in SA... there are 20 white families leaving SA every WEEK!! immigrating to safer countries!! and i wasnt saying that its ok to murder blacks and not ok to murder whites, we all deserve a safer SA! what i was trying to say is, is that if another country, say canada or the UK boycotted SA, maybe the government will wake up and do something about the choas!
And to response to MHZ...Reservations didn't work out all that well for the people back when they were first introduced. It might be worth studying that history and do the opposite. You will find some similarities to their plight as well as the plight of blacks in SA when the whites had the power. Start them off where we are today would be better, unfortunately that would mean the reservations would be for the white people in SA.
I wouldnt mind at all if there were reservations for whites, as long as we can sleep with both eyes closed at night im happy! i have no problem with giving them whatever they want, as long as they can keep it up and not run it into the ground... take my house, take my neighbourhood, whatever... as long as i can walk to the shop without getting raped in my street, or drive back from work without getting gangbanged and highjacked...
Oh and if the blacks had more land, dont you think they would screw it up like they have screwed up what they already have...
