Yep, apartheid is really and truly over. One step forward, two steps back.

How long, I wonder, till we see another Zimbabwe?

It seems to me that the area's of the world that never seem to advance are those where half the population (women) are treated like subhumans. Africa and the Mideast are prime examples.

At least this guy almost certainly has AIDS and will die soon. He sounds like a real creep.

You read that too, I see.

Of course the title sucked me in, only to find the article was about a real piece of human trash.

Disgusted me.

Why South AFrica Sucks

That is a link to a SA blog. Place is heading downhill fast.

If I'm not mistaken, the excellent bloggers Kim Du Toit and LawDog are orig. from there.

BTW, let me also add that I don't agree with 100% of everything on the blog I previously published...

Some of it is rather racist - black vs. white, white vs. black, etc... Take it with a grain of salt...

That is very frightening.
It seem like humanity can never win.

Mike W,

Sorry to disause you, but while the government is criminally slow in rolling out ARV treatment to the general population, you can be assured Mr Z will recieve the best possible treatment the SA taxpayer can afford.

As to the rest, we're just hoping Mbeki can hang on long enough for the authorities to get Zuma to court in August. The one thing we bank on is the fact the constitution does bar serving criminals from being MP's (a precursor to becoming President).
