Nelson Mandela, terrorist, bomber, murderer

Of course aparthied was wrong, but it wasnt unique to SA, the US also had it, and it was also fought against, but passively. And thats the difference. King was a hero, Mandella a terrorist.
But the level of oppression between the US and SA was also on quite different levels. Especially when you take the level of official oppression in account.

:wondering: *from all these madiba post (including this one), rants etc, who is actually born, raised and still living in RSA. :doh: Having opinion of who actually lived through all this? And would you dare admit you might be wrong? Luckily freedom of speech allows for own opinions :laugh: I am getting my popcorn, this is going to be a good one :-\

unjust taxation
I pity you. I never knew unjust taxation was a greater crime than apartheid.
Is that supposed to be clever or something? I merely point out to Dave that I would be on the side of the english rebels and you attempt to make it look as if I think unjust taxation is worse than apartheid. Where did you fail to read the bit where I described Martin Luther King as noble and heroic for his passive fight against segregation? Oh sorry, yes, you just plain forgot to read that bit in your quest for cheap virtue by trying to paint me a racist. Idiot.

I dont know how much it varied between the US and SA, however blacks were killed in the south. They had to cross the street if a white woman walked down their side of the road, get on their knees and remove their hat if they passed a white man on the pavement. I dont know that SA was worse than that, I dont see how it could be worse.

It's the one he uses on letters and cheques as well... ;)

I am not speaking ill of the dead, merely pointing out the cras hypocrisy of the worlds leaders today. And anyone here who hero worships him. And if you think thats abusive then you are a fool.

Same old fatboy only arguing the parts that he wants to shout about and ignoring the parts that disagree with his views. from the I would suggest you give yourself a clap, well done you!

The American government is setup so that you can passively fight against it. The SA government was so oppressive a passive fight would have done nothing, right? Not to justify violence but would a passive fight have even worked? Perhaps he did try passive first.

Well, the was a "song", if you can call it that, some years ago with the title Fatboy slim is elefanting in heaven or something like that. Maybe the name was a reference to that "song".
The good thing about pessimism is, that you are always either right or pleasently surprised.

The point I wanted to make is that you support English rebels who indulged in armed resistance against unjust taxation but you label an armed resistance against apartheid as terrorism. I cannot see it as anything else other than bigotry and racism.

It was legalized. But then again, if you go back more than one hundred years the US had slavery. I read a document a while ago that made that comparison, I'll see if I can find it again. BTW, I notice that you didn't really answer my original question.

He's a Troll - it doesn't have to make sense as long as it gets a response. I've already had to invoke Godwin's Law, but he hasn't shut up... Basically: Don't Feed The Troll! :laugh:

There is a difference between a militia taking on an army and a terrorist killing civilians thorugh bombs. I would have thought that quite obvious.
