I see the BBC sent a black reporter in too.

Must have been a coincidence.

Isn’t that the truth.

No white, normal, straight males can say they’re proud and when this is brought up to the intolerant left they have no answer and just shout racist again.

The Afrikaners should have just abandoned the eastern half of the nation and settled in the Western Cape along with anyone else that wanted to get away from the ANC, declared it independent, and told them to have a nice life.

Very interesting article.

FTA....

“The levels of crime and violent crimes in South Africa are definitely pushing powers that bring people to Orania. Many of them have been victims of crimes,” says Mr Boshoff.

South Africa is considered to be one of the most violent societies in the world, with one of the highest murder rates.

Official statistics suggest that most crimes actually happen in poor communities between people known to each other, but this has not stopped the fear of crime in other communities.

What’s the crime rate there compared to the rest of South Africa?

One could say it’s racist to say that it shows yet again how whites can make a town, make it work and, then have no crime and be safe.

Course that’s racist to the intolerant left.

Look at the liberal New England area.

Bastian’s of the left and yet mostly white, while they like to put down southerners and the south for being racist and backwards.

The only place I have been pointed out and openly shunned is Nantucket Island.

Truly hard to imagine.

Go into any southern city or town and see how integrated it is. These people live in the past.

I’ve never been to Nantucket. It’s probably nice, but a bit of a closed society.

What’s sad is that Mandela won out over a good Christian man in Chief Buthelezi in running post-Apartheid South Africa.

Peter Hammond scorched the Mandela myth, describing his personal experiences: Peter Hammond meeting with Mandela

You know if muzzies can have a muzzie-only town HERE IN THE USA, FFS!!!

I don’t see why Afrikaners can’t have an Afrikan-only community in Africa.

Worked up there for a bit and had to live up there and trust me there are many who like to make fun of the south and southerners.

I live in the northeast and cannot believe the prejudice against southerners. Ignorant, provincial northeasterners!

That was because you are 8 ft. tall and look like an ape.
