These people are remarkably stupid.As a South African pede of a certain age I have lived through similar shit.A government trying to suppress legitimate grievance.Using oppressive means.It does not end well for the oppressor.As a poc let m e also point out the differences.Nelson Mandela and co were actual terrorists and communists.He took up arms against innocent people.You don't have an FW we Klerk to realise that in order to prevent civil war you must compromise and try and resolve legitimate grievances.In S.A. the media actually thought for themselves and we're actually quite brave.There's a lot more differences and similarities that I wont go into.Let's just say there was a time when it seemed the darkness here wo u ld never lift.But it did.We have different problems now - but still.
