June 2006Since the end of apartheid, thousands of white South Africans have been forced into poverty. They blame the government's positive discrimination policies, which favour black employees.Twelve years ago, Afrikaners like Betsie Dreyer lived a privileged and cocooned life. Now, many are dependent on charity handouts. "We are fighting all the time to survive." The government is determined to see the workforce appropriately reflect the population. It gives black people priority in employment, sets 'black quotas' for businesses and favours companies owned by black people. But critics accuse the government of neglecting its responsibility to white citizens. As union rep Kallie Kriel states: "It's ironic that a government that fought racial laws is now doing exactly the same thing."

Jan 7, 2009 - As many people can ignore as they want, but the fact is that black can't run a country and they never will. Zim (already has) and SA will prove that.

Jan 7, 2009 - You are an idiot. I just had to say that because it is so true.
obogalooga Says:
Jan 7, 2009 - Your stupid comments prove how uneducated and bias you are.
jamalvance Says:
Jan 7, 2009 - Um when did Obama kill any White people, or better yet when was he in Jail? The last time I checked when Blacks are killed, or kidnapped there is NO COVERAGE, but a s!ut like Elizabeth Smart can be on CNN, and every other station. The Blacks in SA faced apartheid for DECADES UPON DECADES!!! The "Afrikaneers" deserve it.
Greggybread Says:
Jan 7, 2009 - Bias yes, uneducated no. Whats your point
obogalooga Says:
Jan 7, 2009 - "when its a black man killing a white man, the world turns a blind eye" thats an uneducated answer. blacks serve double the time of whites worldwide. "they are too scared to upset blacks." Europeans worldwide don't give 2 shits about what black people think. "let the fucker out of prison 2 become president" Rhodes, King Leopold, Oppenheimer & Rothschild should all be doing 1000 years each. Better yet, execution.
Greggybread Says:
Jan 7, 2009 - obogalooga i dont think its an uneducated comment. What you need is statistics to back up your comment if youre gonna say blacks serve double the time. If Europeans dont give a shit, why do they send billions of pounds, euros and dollars to feed, medicate and clothe africans on a daily fuckin basis

Jan 7, 2009 - I want to feel bad for them, but I can't. You can't take advantage of being a part of a group that has all of the money/power/privilege/advantages, and turn a blind eye to the mistreatment of others, especially because of skin color, and then act surprised when things change for you and suddenly YOU are the one with your face in the mud.

Jan 7, 2009 - Stanley, D.L.Atlanta Inquirer05-06-2000Blacks More Likely Than Whites To Go To JailAlthough representing only 34 percent of the U.S. population in 1997,minority youth represented 62 percent of youth in detention, 67 percent ofyouth committed to public facilities, and 55 percent of youth committed toprivate facilities, according to a report released by Building Blocks forYouth, entitled "The Color of Justice."
obogalooga Says:
Jan 7, 2009 - i don't know if thats good enough for you, but you get the picture. u already knew this info anyway. and Euros don't give a shit. whatever they "gave" to Africa was already theirs. thats like me stealing something from you and making an arrangement to sell it back to you with interests. if you don't agree you just don't, fuck it. as long as Africans start to wake up to Europe's dirty practices thats all that matters. i don't expect u to understand.
obogalooga Says:
Jan 7, 2009 - Theirs also an article from the guardian that documents discrimination in the legal system at Scotland Yard against blacks who catch the same offense as whites. So like I said, its a worldwide problem.
NZ500D Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - I'm sure you would have said the white Zimbabweans 'deserved it', look what's happened. SA will become another Zim. Espiecally considering that 50%+ of black South African's are HIV+. Damn...
elandolt Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - the diff b 2in a tourist & a racist in sa? one week!come here & c 4 yr self intead of talking shit from 1000 miles away or fuck off with yr opinions, i didn't ask 4 yr help
obogalooga Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - "Espiecally considering that 50%+ of black South African's are HIV+. Damn"... blah blah blah, white folks always trying to use the AID'S BULLSHIT. let me put it to you like this Caucasoids. that is the ONLY THING YOU EVER BROUGHT TO THE CONTINENT (along with Ebola).
NZ500D Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - Damn? No wonder so many people are infected with attituses like that, and AIDS actually originated in Africa.
khyaimani Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - Please this is a black continent where blacks also suffer, like blacks around the world. I don't feel sorry because most whites have oppurtunities blacks don't have. NZ500D do your research Aids did not originate from Africa, THE FIRST CASE CAME FROM EUROPE. I hate when people think their race is superior. I don't have simpathy for this situation because many blacks suffer far more than whites.
Greggybread Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - khyaimani why do you spend so much time worrying about finding out where aids came from. Use your energy to find a cure, not blame. It could save millions. Its here now, killing now, where it came from will not save lives in the future. Where it is going certainly will. Look forward, not backward
khyaimani Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - Well to be honest, I'm only responding to inaccurate statement that incenuating that Africans are the reason for the virus. Now I knew that birds of a feather flock together, instead of correcting that person who made an ignorant comment you rather jump on me. I would like to give accurate information to somone who is trying to be offensive that is especially wrong. So why am I being scrutinized when his comment is without merit?
khyaimani Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - I am actually an open minded person. I don't like being negative but I have a pet peve for those who feel they have to oppress others. I always speak out for the under dog or person being victimized
Greggybread Says:
Jan 8, 2009 - Dont know who is responsible for aids but its clear the africans and their culture are preventing any cures. They see condoms as a tool of oppression from the white man. Some witch doctors tell people to sleep with babies to cure them. South africas ex health minister advised everyone to eat beetroot to cure them from aids, Jacob zuma said it was impossible for him to catch it as he had a shower after sex. Ignorance and stupidity is spreading it
