South Africa is another story all together. I am not saying that killing is ok, revenge killings are ok etc. But Jesus Christ! Look at what white people did to blacks in THEIR OWN COUNTRY in South Africa. I knew a rich guy from Johannesburg who went hunting with my father in Alaska frequently and he could not stop bragging about the fact that he loved shooting blacks that wandered on to his property without permission... and that not only was it fun... it was legal.
So... I should give a fuck that blacks turn around and treat whites just as harsh or harsher than whites did for decades in their own back yard when they finally have the chance to do so? I could care less. It seems to me that a logical person would expect it. If whites don't like being treated like shit or living in fear... Then they should leave. It's that simple. Why become another statistic while bitching and complaining about "rights" and trying to win a losing argument about people who would rather see you dead anyway... and some would say for very good reason.
100's of 1000's of blacks are being butchered in Sudan and thats NOT as important as a couple hundrend whites in South Africa? I guess it's not always about the math.
someone already said it perfectly;
"Fall back, fight back or leave, those are the options in this type of situation."

Who said it's not as important as the situation in Sudan? Sudan is looking like it could be the next Rwanda. Possibly even worse. It's extremely important, but It's not the topic of discussioln and thus, is irrelevant.
To be honest, i think any white person is nuts to stay in south africa. My family got the hell out of Africa because we knew the shit was going to hit the fan, and every white person was going to be put in a shitty position regardless of their opinion of black people. But on the other hand, that is their country too. They are African. They have every right to be there.
I totally support the idea of land redistribution, and so do a lot of white people that live and have lived in Africa. You must understand that it was white people that ended apartheid in south africa and it was white people that made it possible for a black leader *cough* to emerge in Zimbabwe. But the current land redistribution going on in Africa, particularly in Zimbabwe is ridiculous. It is too much, too soon, and it is often carried out with brutal violence.
South Africa is handling the situation a bit better, but they are still trying to do too much too soon, and it's causing a lot of shit.
It's not a problem you can fix in a day, or a year, or even in a decade. It's going to take many years. The way the issues are being handled are making it worse for everybody, including black people.
