Rick B / 6000 etc – GONE ?
Amazing, just looking at the posters in this SA forum and the short bursts of all talk SA rah rah rah stuff has all gone. No staying power.
Recently we have the next wave of posters, of course, come on here with their once only posts claiming that the consistent content on here is all nonsense.
I chose Rick B to highlight as he came on this forum so strong that I was a (forum) bully boy and he was going to show me and the readers that I was just another racialist and anti-Africanism. Yeah right ! That same old card that just keeps getting played.
Can anyone show me a member here from South Africa that consistently offers contribution to this forum on an ongoing basis that whistles the tune that there are no problems with SA ? Even Miss Eck that went to SA for a holiday has still not posted back any feedback.
It’s the same *attitude* that is sinking South Africa. People DO NOT want to hear the negatives and prefer to bury their head in the sand.
Pass another beer, chop & wors.

I'm still here... I hop on every few days for my dose of vitriol
It's just that most of the posts are a bit same-old same-old. I'd happily chat about my recommendations in the Kruger Park, or how I'd forgotten just how cold the sea is off Clifton, but most folk just want to have a fight.
When I feel like a fight I'll jump in swinging

Seriously Campbell, you come across as one very p*ssed off individual. :curse: Bashing people over the head with lectures usually defeats the purpose.

Yes, thank you and I will continue to be pissed off when things like this are and continue to happen.

SOUTH AFRICA 'We'll kill all you white dogs'
Pretoria - "They told us: 'We're still going to kill all you white dogs.'," said an elderly couple who were throttled, bound and robbed in their Pretoria North flat. Fanie Coetzee, 76, and his wife, Bekkie, 73, were getting ready for coffee about 06:45 on Friday when two intruders who had broken into the complex attacked them.
Speaking from Eugene Marais Hospital on Sunday morning, they described how they were attacked and threatened in their flat in General Beyers Street. Bekkie was preparing Fanie's coffee when a man grabbed her by the throat from behind. "He throttled me and just said 'Money, money'.
Kicked in their private parts
"I said we were pensioners and didn't have much money, but what there was they could have." She said the robbers took R500 from her husband and R25 from her purse. "Then they kicked and beat us. Oh! it was terrible. My back is black and my husband's throat is purple. My throat also feels raw." "They kicked me once in my private parts and my husband was kicked there three times.
"The short one dragged me down the passage to the bedroom by my hair and tied me to the bed with my gown. "I begged and pleaded, but he just wouldn't listen. One hit me so hard in the face that I went all dizzy." Coetzee said he fought back hard: "Every time I saw a face, I hit it."
"When he grabbed one of our knives and wanted to stab me, I hit his wrist so hard that the knife fell out of his hand."
His attacker grabbed a table cloth, bound it round his neck and twisted it twice. "Then he dragged me to the bedroom through the splinters of the glass pot that had been on the table and tied me hand and foot to the washbasin with a sheet."
He thinks the attackers took fright when they heard his neighbour getting his car out of the garage. "I wriggled free and untied my wife before we phoned the neighbours. A policeman who lives across the road, telephoned the police," he said.
The intruders are thought to have gained access by jumping over the gate of the complex and entering through the door to the veranda, which was open. ****
I tell you what, lectures and head bashing don’t work you are correct.
A few SAS is what I think would work and sort these sort of yellow bellied bast*rds out. I’m sorry if I have offended anyone but PC stuff and so-called human rights ain’t sorting the huge problem – GENOCIDE !
And it is being allowed to happen – so far ………..

I promise to write up something soon.
In the meantime if you do a search under my gallery you can see a few snaps from Cape Town.

Ah, but what you don't understand my friend, is that most of this type that come on here are members of what is called the homecoming revolution - a government sponsored front for enticing professionals back so they can keep their tax base going and who lie through their teeth. We've been around them long enough to recognize most of their tactics, their names from other forums, and know who they are by how they post.

OK, fair comment, and yes I did know about the Homecoming Revolution. What I was trying to say is that what new prospectice posters see is what you post on here and it discourages them from posting in the first place. I do realise that you are between a rock and a hard place though!

She was only going on holiday. I daresay her experiences were your usual typical holiday experiences of a few meals out, seeing sights etc. Why should she bother writing it up and saying she had a nice time? She's seen enough of your posts to know that you'll tear her apart. If I were her, I wouldn't bother either.
Tourists from the West, with their superficial chequebook morality, don't really care two hoots about Africa. They didn't understand colonial Africa and didn't want to. Now they don't understand post-colonial Africa either,and don't want to. They just want to feel good, all warm and fuzzy inside, and occasionally send off a few quid to "make poverty history" and then just get on with their consumerist hedonism.
SA as a holiday destination wasn't "cool". Now it is "cool" and so "cool" people can go there without feeling bad about themselves. The only thing that rattles them is that they might get mugged, murdered, raped, or bitten by some nasty African insect. Well let 'em get bitten. A bit of reality will do them good.

Probably not.
Sorry, not one of those.
Para 1 - pretty much agree
