A Lovely Comment From Mike

I do not know who Mike is, but he is from South Africa and decided to contribute to my blog. I am posting the comment he left me in case it is difficult to find. I think it's a great example of the racism that I am encountering here.

You come to South Africa with a typical white American liberal view and make derogatory comments about Afrikaaner monuments knowing very little about the country's history having only been tough a one sided view.

Maybe I should remind you that your ancestors massacred virtually the entire indian population in America, does this mean that all white American monuments should be torn down and make you feel sick when looking at them.

Large parts of SA where uninhabited at that time and no African tribe as roots in SA as they also all moved down from further up north.

You should also see, but you probably wont as you are blinded by your liberal American views that South Africa is the most developed and advanced country in South Africa becuase of the whites.

Had whites not settled SA, like it or not the blacks would all be far worse off.


Thank you, Mike, for your input.

I responded to him, and my response is listed under the comment section of the Jburg/Pretoria blog if you are interested.
