Racism Is Still Going Strong In South Africa! 19-Year Old Gets Life After Killing 4 Blacks!


This is an update to the story that I posted about the South African teenager who went on a racist killing spree where one of the victims was as young as three months! Well, this guy showed no emotion as he was given his four life terms by the judge who find racism intolerable. Because racism is alive & well the judge on this case has received numerous death threats. Here's an excerpt from BBC:

"Police spokesman Lesego Metsi said Judge Ronald Hendricks and the prosecuting lawyer were under police protection after receiving 50 death threats on their mobile phones, the South Africa Press Association reports.

Superintendent Metsi told South Africa's Times newspaper that all the callers were white, who said Judge Hendricks would be killed if he handed down a life sentence."(END OF EXCERPT) Read it all here:

I thought I'd post a video about racism in South Africa from Louis Theroux of BBC. I find his interviews to be quite refreshing & witty! There's always a hint of sarcasm in the way that he poses his questions. This time he's talking to the racist Boers of South Africa.Watch!
