Something that I've often thought about. If white South Africans are referred to as "European settlers" and that we should not have stayed in SA. What is the situation with "other" nationalities in South Africa. Any comments?

Don't you have anything better to do with your time?
I meant nothing sinister about the question. Just goes to show that its acceptable for some of us to say what they feel and others not. If some of the questions are taboo and are not permitted, please let me know. As an entire SA nation wanting to build a new South Africa, why are the politicians allowed to say whatever they please but the voters have to keep quiet. Unfortunately to many, I usually ask for comments in a straight and direct manner. I have had one on one discussions with people from many different backgrounds and not one has ever been offended as you appear to be. These folk have always engaged in a meaningful debate and if I came across to them a bit strongly, they would explain why and we would continue the discussion. I had the very same discussion with a guy (of a different race) today at work.
Then you must have got your answer ..... I had the very same discussion with a guy (of a different race) today at
To you and I the topic is dead, but maybe you should remind the politicians as they think it is still alive. Not very healthy for nation building if the politicians continue to remind us. But feel free to comment on my original question/comment regarding "other" nationalities in SA.
HR, you would be VERY suprised at the opinions of the folk in the street. Maybe you should consider having such discussions and hear "other's" opinion and not just have your own view. It is really an eye opener, it takes some balls to raise not so popular topics sometimes and hear the different opinions.
I simply don't think about $h1t like that anymore. Brain energy is better spent on more productive thinking.
I was under the impression that a "forum" is where people with different views chat and comment about whats happening in the country and world. If the topic was raised before, it could be before I joined. Adrian, I do not think it is shit when these comments are made publicly.
