WHEN the youths saw Murray Pott's sister filming them as they hit the Zimbabwean farmer with sticks, they smashed the kitchen window to try to get to her too. Mr Pott, who is of Scottish descent, was left with broken ribs and head injuries after a mob attacked him on his farm in Chinhoyi, central Zimbabwe last week.
The incident shows how terrifying life has become for the country's last white farmers seven months into the power-sharing agreement between president Robert Mugabe and former opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai that was widely expected to end land invasions.
"I was attacked in my mother's yard by 13 people," Mr Pott told The Scotsman. "I was hit 28 times with sticks."
Blood streaming down his face, the father of two was rushed to a government hospital. Mr Pott, who grew tobacco, soyabeans, potatoes and desperately-needed maize on his Hilltop Farm, has kidney problems because of his injuries.
No worries, it's just whitey
Just white trash, move along, nothing to see here.
Looks like he now lives in Injun country.
I wonder if he has a twelve gauge pump?
Mugabe is one sick tyrant. Reminds me of the potential we have in the WH.
How about they just leave and let the savages starve?
Robert Mugabe = The Perennial U.N. Poster Child
I can’t honestly imagine why a white person would WANT to stay in Zimbabwe at this point...I’d have skipped off to America years prior to this...
I know it is home to the farmers. that is why they don’t want to leave. But is it worth their lives?
This is something that I’m sure that obamugabe, in the darkest part of his commie heart, would like to see in this country.
[Id have skipped off to America years prior to this...]
What makes you think that WHITE people feom Zimbabwe would be allowed into this country? Especially if they were Christian.
Like Rev James D. Manning says about his own race - generally speaking they are “ destroyers “ . This is one piece of proof .
just sharin the wealth bro
No problem...Danny Glover and his agents will strongarm the producers of the next “Lethal Weapon” into writing this international issue of racial violence into the next script...oh, wait...forget it, nothing to see here...
I don’t think many had a place to go. If they were multi-gen citizens, the Brit route was out, IIRC. SA has it’s own problems and I suspect the refugee option was not readily available in the rest of the Anglo-sphere.
Read a story about a journo traveling over there. They were stopped and asked [because they were white???] if they could help with a dairy farm. The thugs took it over, then didn’t know WTF to do with it. They also ran off the black workers who knew what they were doing. All for the greater good of the repressed proletariat.
If you look at all the millions of years they have occupied that continent show me all the civilizations they have built. Show the inventions. Show the culture.
Aint happened.
Show me where they created organized systematic farming. Show me the wheel....
Didnt happen
Prospects for the future? They have to learn from western man. Simple. Maybe the Chinese. But if you look at the history of the wheel, they were way behind the west as well.
This is America's fate under the racial revenge administration of the Kenyan.
They most likely thought he was there to donate organs.
I wish they’d move here. We can always use good farmers. oh, wait. I forgot. They are white and immigration visas are not available...
Bingo.
We call it Obamacare here.
