Every time I hear a conservative say their party is not racist, it is threads like this, that show their true colors.
Point to where someone in this thread is conservative, making racist comments, and claiming to speak for the entire conservative party.
I remember when the people from South Africa came here to visit, and not to reside. They've been pushed out of their own country. Is it racist to say it's the blacks that are doing that?
Also remember when South Africa was a place to travel and have fun but that was when whites controlled that country and committed a lot of the atrocities but now that they are on the other end, they don't consider it a travel destination any more.

You don't have a clue what you are talking about and you didn't answer my specific question. Also, I recently returned from SA and it is far from the picture you are attempting to paint.

South Africa has been in the business of slavery for a very long time(since colonial days) it started around the horn of africa near Niger(hence the derogatory term) when slurred. It has been tribally chased down to South Africa generation after generation.
I honestly doubt the name is intended to be derogatory The country is named after the Niger river.
Also there are plenty of places where some sort of genocide is happening, yet they don't create threads about them and I wonder why? Gee it wouldn't have anything to do with the race that is being killed would it?

They weren't called after the Niger River at all. They were called a version of the Portuguese word for black

Also find it funny when they talk about blacks or any other minority being predispositioned to being violent but totally forget the history of colonialism and other violent histories that Caucasians were a part of, not too mention that white people make up the majority of serial killers or child molesters.
So much violence and mayhem, yet it is blacks who are the only ones who are prone to being violent criminals?
