Racism on the increase in South Africa

South African Airlines is no longer accepting white applicants for pilot training.

The President of South Africa proudly sings a song about killing whites.



Racial murders of white families are continuing.

This looks to be a bigger, nastier version of Zimbabwe, happening before our eyes.

It's payback. Just because the west has decided that racial discrimination isn't PC - doesn't mean the indigenous Africans have. They've put up with subjugation and segregation for too long to forget so quickly.

That was more than thirty years ago, and even so it is no excuse. The younger generations don't remember those times, but they still carry the prejudices and sense of entitlement.

Look at what happened to Zimbabwe when the blacks got their "revenge". Everyone suffered.

[mantra]

Yes - everyone suffered and Zimbabwe was a futile, cruel exercise, but generally over the centuries whites have treated blacks like dogs with low IQ's. I'm not sure if their younger generation is as accepting as we would like to believe. Even with our advantages and a decent education there is still a lot of racial hate in the west. Although racism is intolerable to many - it is still an instinct that can't be eradicated because governments tell us it is wrong and against the law.

Stop hurdling the fence mantra, I can't tell which side you are coming from.

[AnimalMother]

South African Airlines has now announced that the ban on training white pilots has been rescinded, after public outcry.

Still, it's disturbing that it was introduced at all, and in secret at that.

What is next for SA? Black and white airlines? Apartheid mark 2?
