I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside educated and skilled South African immigrants. I’ve had the misfortune of having had to try to work with Somali immigrants. Give me one South African for every hundred Somalis, and on second thought, you can keep the Somalis.

No. That’s been tried. It does not fly in the racist US society. They would be called “racist White South Africans.”

I don’t care. I am sick of all those leftist people and racists. Time to get ugly back and tell them to shut up.

I like to think that at least some Democrats are having second thoughts about this, now that they’re discovering that once the Somalis reach critical mass, the first thing they do is vote out all those good liberal white Democrats who brought them into the country.

Eventually, even the dimmest Democrat has to realize that what’s happening in South Africa now is what’s going to happen here in the future, if they keep going the way they’re going.

Dude, they’re talking about BLACK Africans at all.

This is about the WHITE South Africans, who have been living there since we were colonies!

Exactly. Just like Trump has suggested.

Western Civilization is being destroyed across the globe. Working for a living, or creating value, is a major tenant. Allowing those (no matter what tribe they belong to) to reinforce the American Creed would severely damage the Progressive agenda. They need people who vote for a living.

I often think the same thing about california when we give it back to mexico. Return it in the exact condition it was found in.

Along those lines, I've jumped on the "You stole our land" types with this:

"What did you do with the land we LET you keep? (Twisting the knife.) In 1848 the land on either side of the border looked exactly alike. We turned our side into a generator of wealth and prosperity while you turned yours into a cesspool of poverty and crime."

Never got a rebuttal.

I’m fully aware that this is about white S. Africans.

I should have been more clear. The point of my comment is it it should be OK to make a distinction between white and black Africans, because the latter have brought violence everywhere they’ve gone.

At the same time as allowing South Africans admittance, persecuted Christians from all areas should also be allowed admittance. Let the Dems scream racist” after that.

It’s strange how the Dems classify people by skin color and pigmentation. There are many people who have black ancestors from Africa, but only those with a specific range of color can call themselves African Americans.

Anyone who was actually born in Africa, but is caucasian by complexion are denied that identity. I’ve never heard of an Egyptian declaring himself an African American. they perceive themselves as Arab, despite many of them actually being of Egyptian lineage. It’s an identity that has been forced upon them by invaders.

Last time I looked Americans are Americans no matter what shade of beige they exhibit. We cover a broad range of pigmentation. We take pride in calling ourselves Americans, not because of a particular lineage, but because of our parents settling here, with the intent of becoming a part of the greatest nation to have been established upon the principles of liberty, justice, and equal treatment under the law.

It is the Dems who have split us apart and labeled us racists, and questioned our form of government. It is the Dems who seek to destroy our Republic.

Those who classify by pigmentation are the racist.

As they leave, the white farmers should burn everything to the ground and salt the earth.

Why? They don't need to - the new owners the government moves in will do it themselves!
