Comments: South African government appeals for calm after death of white supremist.

The racist party calling itself the ‘Afrikaaner Resistance Movement’ of which Terreblanche was leader, has stated that the party “will decide upon the action we are going to take to avenge Mr Terreblanche’s death.” This statement is entirely disturbing ... such a blatant comment clearly shows that the mentality of the mob is alive and well.

How dare this party, or any party, threaten to take vengeance! It is obvious that there is no reticence towards taking the law into their racist hands. I call upon the South African President, Jacob Zuma, to condemn these cowboys and ensure that lawful measures of control are enforced. Such a party is an absolute disgrace and should be denounced in the strongest terms. Christine – Australia.

Christene, you must be one of the SA expats that fled the country because of the state this country is in. If not you don't have a say in this matter as you are totally ignorant and don't know what's happening here.

When Hani was murdered the blacks went on the rampage and killed and looted and plundered and the ANC government said that they must vent their grief but when the shoe is on the other foot the whites must show restraint? what utter BULLS..T! AIDS is doing a good job of taking revenge...

It's disgusting that such parties still exist in the 21st century.

They actually recanted their call for revenge, saying it was announced in the heat of the moment and was wrong.

I believe that those who killed them were wrong. hes only doing what every white person should do, exploit black people for cheap labour.
