Doctors treating former South African President Nelson Mandela say the anti-apartheid leader is in a “permanent vegetative state,” according to documents obtained by Agence France-Presse.

Ohhhhh too bad no one can rescue him for a photo op with the "O!"

Yeah, If I were a white South African, I’d be on my way to the airport. More “ethnic cleansing” on the way after this turd circles the bowl for the last time.

Here is Nelson's first wife Winnie:

She liked to do some "necklacing" back in the day, which
consisted of tying a person's hands behind their back with
barbed wire, hanging a tire around their neck, pouring
gasoline in it and setting it on fire.
