Respected pranksteroflove-angry-dragon

I think some people need to check there history, him and his wife were no saints





You disgusting piece of shiiite, everything he did was to free his people from being the underclass in their own country.

One of the greatest ever statesman and leaders the world has ever know.

And the country is still a dump, it's like glorifying Tony Blair

He was also unjustly locked up tortured degraded, through all this he only wanted what was right, and on his release he didn't elicit hatred revenge or terrorism but unity of a very divided county.


For that he has the respect and adulation of most right thinking people.

Bluedroog - Bring Back Smokewheel Pizza Lover aka Angelina Jolie is beautiful

I wonder how you feel if it was your daughter blown up as they got off a train on their way to school for example.




Try telling that to the Americans who drop bombs from planes all around the world on countries they do not like, many, many innocent people also get killed. To win any war there has to be casualties.

Didn't Martin Luther hate the jews and want them all killed etc?

It's bloody epic the people that get celebrated in this world for doing 1 good thing, it's like me going and decapitating 10 people then helping some old lady across the street and being let off for really being a nice person.

And the Americans are a bunch of dks, I'll be controversial when I see this 'fighting for our country' stuff it's all a load of ballsack.

They're fighting for another country and we got bombed for attacking that country, it that site it's the bloody Government and Armed Forces fault they wanna blow us up.

I hate it all, fack it all, fack this article, fack the Government, fack the armed forces, fack humanity, I'm gonna go live in a cave and talk to squirrels for the rest of my life.

I have to agree where Winnie Mandela was concerned. She was credited with promoting the "Petrol necklacing" which went on in SA. She is a nasty piece of work.....

As for Nelson Mandela, whilst strictly speaking (under the then SA Laws) he was viewed as a terrorist, his ultimate aim was freedom for black people & the abolition of apartheid.

He turned into an iconic statesman who survived 27 years on Robin Island & still had the good grace to forgive his jailers.

My concern is that he was the glue holding together SA, now that he is dead there might be a sustained period of uncertainty & unrest there!

I haven't slept for over 24 hours, life sucks and I cba with this site, I'm going to drink more and go to sleep, ballbags to it all.

Being slightly older than the majority of posters on these boards, I had visited South Africa on more than one occassion during the Apartheid Regime, and I have to say I was disgusted to be called a white human being, when I saw some of the things the coloured community of their own country had to put up with from the racists thugs that ran the country. Nothing Mandela did could ever, ever be condemned other than by people with racist beliefs.

Best you give it up before you get banned doo doos

Genius Greaves even after he stepped down from the presidency he was an important figurehead, his ideals were important.

And his very ideal was freedom for his people, he wasn't trying to further his own ambitions, he wasn't trying to declare himself absolute ruler, he just wanted freedom for all.

Any ill-words towards him detract from his powerful ideals and get us into a shallower exchange of words.

We'll see what the future holds, I hope they respect the intentions of Madiba.

I love how everyone has jumped on the Mandela bandwagon, bet they had to google him to see who he was?

I don't doubt it, I know for fact,

Redinthehead........................Genius Greaves even after he stepped down from the presidency he was an important figurehead, his ideals were important.


Totally agree!! We need to understand that other countries were run differently. Africa as a continent has always been volatile, and SA Black people were cruelly oppressed.

Mandela never did a single thing wrong?

Sandy, did you feel embarrassed to be there?

Someone I knew in South Africa was hitchhiking in South Africa in those racist days. A white Englishman gave him a lift and enroute they stopped at a hotel bar. The guy I know told the Englishman he'll go round to the little "coloured" section, to which the Englishman replied "no you will not, you'll join me" the manager told him, "you can both go and sit in the coloured section"

The racism was ingrained in everyone, and a whole populous, the majority, was made to feel worthless.

People should google him, he was a great man.

Maybe I’m being cynical but it is a bit suspicious that news of his death broke during the Premier screening of the film of his life. I reckon this happened a few days ago and they held off announcing it with the view of adding some extra poignancy.
