South Africa used to be a prosperous country, and then the ANC took over, and since then, it's gone screaming into the pit, to join the rest of Africa in a cesspool of misery and hatred.
South Africa as a whole was never prosperous, only white heterosexual Christian males were prosperous.
Pardon my seemingly rabid feelings towards the South African flag, but I really really HATE scumbags who masquerade as democracy advocates, etc. etc., and when they finally seize power, turn the place into a shithole, re: Rhodesia
Unlike Zimbabwe, South Africa is a real democracy, look it up.

My avatar will stay until I am tired of it or until the majority of the board objects.

Saddam only really got going a few years after he got into power. Though his terrorist past is much older.

The ANC did a good job of dragging them down as well, while knocking many of the poorly paid blacks into unemployment.

Hey, Captain Jack, fuck you. One of my favorite Fanfic Authors,
Michael January, was originally from South Africa.

His Home page.

Reason I say "originally", was because he left the country since
it got to be bad...really bad.

So have relatives of mine. And the large portuguese community over there is living terrified with killings everyday. Still, that's no reason to hijack this thread again. Debate the current state of SA elsewhere.

Yes. When we gave Saddam the key 20 years ago, it said "You are worthy of this gift". Now, if he got it, it would say "Detroit City Council has sunk that low".

Well that was certainly odd, reminds me of when leaders in the 30's praised Hitler for fixing Germany.
