Mandela, the foreigners, with money, are looked after instantly. Trust me on this one. We are motivated by money, and money alone. But, we want it instantly, not through hard work, vision and planning.
There is no excuse for Trump and the Republican party. None. Obviously Mr. Young, you're watching too much Fox News. Had the US made changes while you were studying race relations there, these protests wouldn't be necessary today. Justice delayed is justice denied. No meaningful change has ever come about without turmoil and destruction of property, and yes death. Too bad you didn't study US history. If you did you would know exactly what it took to end slavery, allowed women to vote, to keep children out of coal mines, an 8 hour work day, and countless other progressive changes. I know many people who took part in the protests They were peaceful, until the police arrived. Too bad your news station failed to show you the police assaulting peaceful protesters of all colors. I don't care if they are rioting now. Are you suggesting they have no legitimate reason. Why does your government have the right to bomb innocent civilians, but people with legitimate anger don't have a right to take to the streets. Lives have more value than property. If their lives have no value, i wouldn't blame them for destroying property. It takes a really good education to be so blind. I support the Black Lives Matter protests. If it takes destruction of property to be heard, so be it.r
Nearly 100 "location pending" is not acceptable. Yet, in a land where the little information we have is held by those in perilous positions of power, it is not surprising. Knowledge is power. And, it is in very short supply here.
