Jack the lad,
Are you by any chance posting from S.A.?
You seem to know a little of what life is actually all about over there.

People often ask me what it was like living in S.A., I just tell them to first go for a holiday for two weeks...in Cape Town, then get out and do not even go anywhere near the likes of Pretoria, Johannesburg, or Port Elizabeth, they will only be looking for trouble in these places.

The major hotels send overseas visitors on meandering walks through dangerous areas without even warning them, if they are lucky to get back to the hotel alive with only their cameras stolen!

It has really gotten out of hand, but people just keep going on holidays over there, to dangerous areas, not heeding the warnings and not keeping away from troublesome areas.

How many times we have met people who have been to S.A. some having lived there for many years, some on holiday, some telling us they have lost close relatives due to the lawlessness of the country...it's sick!

How kind of you to answer for SPANKY.

No. I did not miss his point. At all.

But; and you are hearing this from me directly; you are choosing to miss my point as evidenced by the following:

"Bringing up the SA apartheid era doesn't help as that is long gone,..."

Are you seriously suggesting that this 'era' has no bearing?
Are you seriously missing my point that white abuses being hidden by the media (JUST AS BAD), did NOT occur routinely in SA.; a Country I too am familiar with; when this abuse was perpetrated BY the White controlled Government?

If the country is a 'hellhole', it became such because of a system of racial abuse as set by the White.

Or are you both REALLY suggesting that abuse is only valid when perpetrated UPON the White race? Surely not??

Ginx,
You ARE getting it all wrong and after you having made the statement in your last thread, I can see this is going in one ear and out the other, so typical, so very, very typical to your kind.

The bubble has popped ginx, so whatever or whoever corrupted your little world, from wherever the heck you hail from, I suggest you crawl back into that cryogenic tank you climbed out of and wake up in the real world. Too many people like you always take these threads up wrong and again, typical to pile it all on racism if there's no other way out...

Now if you don't mind, stop causing sh!t in other peoples threads, @rsehole.

SPANKY, SPANKY, SPANKY!!; has somebody spankied SPANKY too hard?

......or is that tacky little diatribe because of the insomnia?

(It is now becoming very clear that OLO has a fair whack of dual/multiple identity posters.)

I wasn't addressing you??, but 'you' have taken MEGA offence.

GOOD! The point is well made. You did not like it. I do not care

Hello folks. I’ve been away for a few days in the real world and am now back on-line.

Firstly, Ginx, no need to jump to the defensive because I agree with someone else’s view and was trying to help you understand.
You seem to think that by bringing up the tired, old tirades against apartheid, you can justify your view that the ‘new’ South Africa is better than the ‘old’.
Do you honestly think that abuses against Whites are not rampant in South Africa? How do you view Mandela? Saint or murdering, White-hating terrorist? Then there’s Zimbabwe. Have you any idea of what happened there? What do you think of Mugabe?
South Africa is the next Zimbabwe.

‘If the country is a 'hellhole', it became such because of a system of racial abuse as set by the White’. What was that all about? For someone who professes ‘SA. a Country I too am familiar with’, you have shown little knowledge but a leftist propagandist’s misinformed view. The South African system of apartheid was not racial abuse as Blacks had jobs, housing and were in more danger from the Mandelas and their gangs than from Whites, who gave them employment.
If you think that South Africa now is better than the ‘hellhole’, why don’t you go live there and enlighten the people with your answers to all their problems. See how long you last. Here’s what you can look forward to - http://www.africancrisis.co.za/Article.php?ID=16838&

Spanky, I’m not from SA but had an uncle who lived there most of his life and a brother who spent a bit of time there. I also have a friend who escaped with his family after being sickened by rising Black crime and violence (one of his sons was a victim of racial violence by Blacks). I wonder how Ginx feels about this racism, or does Black abuse of Whites not count?
It’s a disgrace that the media is not telling it as it is when covering South Africa and Zimbabwe

Now there's a coincidence....,I was away too. I'mmmmmm back!

You didn't think I would let your sermon go unchallenged, did you?

"Firstly, Ginx, no need to jump to the defensive because I agree with someone else’s view and was trying to help you understand.
You seem to think that by bringing up the tired, old tirades against apartheid, you can justify your view that the ‘new’ South Africa is better than the ‘old’." (Quote: JtL.)

I do not need your view to 'help me understand'. However; whilst on the subject of understanding, YOU show a marked capacity for ignoring cause (because it suits your agenda to do so), and concentrating on effect (because it suits.....).
Take another look at my last post; if you actually read it (?), you will note the comment:"JUST AS BAD". I did put it in big letters so you could manage to do that....

As for hero's/villain's. I am too damn cynical to define anyone as either.....the issue is never black and white is it?.....

"I wonder how Ginx feels about this racism, or does Black abuse of Whites not count?" (Quote:JtL.)

You cheeky sod! I know a bloody site more about racism than you do, so DON'T take the moral high ground!

Over to you Jack m'boy....lock and load.
