I hope for all of y'all's sake it never comes to that again.
I just got back home from the hospital and I brought my sister and my niece with me. They are staying with me for a couple days.
Guy looks like a prick, and what he did was savage and fcked up mate. Sorry to hear the tragic news, and glad to know you didn't pursue to follow a bad example by trying to right a wrong with another wrong. Wish the best outcome for your sister, and that justice is served righteously and fairly.
Time to pay the piper..
GG @spursfan82, you just advanced to level 11!
"Afrikaner supremacist group"
really?
"Prasa on Tuesday put its losses due to arson attacks on its Metrorail trains at R636 million over the past three years"
Nothing is going to change while these acts of terrorism is handled with kid gloves. 3 years and its only getting worse.
GG @Nidalap Rorrim, you just advanced to level 15!
Almost a Billion wow
Amazed at how much hate some people have
But why is anyone surprised?
i really hope people start retaliating in this country against the government and officials its bullshit that we have to sit back allow a minority be brutally targeted enough is enough i am becoming more and more convinced to get involved in violent retaliation. i am convinced the alt media has done what it can now its time for action not waiting and being complacent like the weak ass generations before us.
@Duke You have to lead a good example, following a bad example, does not make you any better than them. Persecution is a burden that has to be carried, you have to deal with that reality. If you follow a bad example, you would be a hypocrite for condemning their actions, because obviously you are justifying it by following along, and if you do that, they win, you lose. They want you to follow their lead, they want you to be corrupted of your principles. Don't be weak, be prepared, and outsmart them. You are justified in taking the appropriate actions and measures when the circumstances demand it, not when your emotions dictate it. Be wise, not foolish.
i live on a farm
one incident has to effect me directly
and i promise
"be prepared, and outsmart them. You are justified in taking the appropriate actions and measures when the circumstances demand it, not when your emotions dictate it. Be wise, not foolish."
That's all that you need to adhere to then.
i have lost friends already when it effects my family its game over i wont stop myself
I understand buddy, but hence why i say, be prepared, expect the worst and prepare for it to the best of your ability, and outsmart them, you are justified when the circumstances demand it, not before, and not after. Prevention is better than a cure, or vengeance. Your will should be focused and directed at preventing your family from being harmed, you shouldn't dwell on concerns of what you would do if anything is to happen to them, the time wasted dwelling on those thoughts, is time that could be spent preparing and preventing that from happening.
Be wise, don't be a fool. I wouldn't want you to go through any of that as i don't want anyone else to go through such tragedy. Hence i am trying to advise you, not insult you, or make light of your concerns.

Wise words.
Dropped a vid in videos that i thought somewhat relevant π
@Rainbow Monkeys oh hey, thanks... The lord givith in wisdom.
"But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy."
@Rainbow Monkeys thank you, for the recognition. I certainly hope his faith shall be restored and save him and his family, and they shall find peace in their hearts, free from fear. It certainly is not a light burden to carry, especially where he resides.
@Sheamus Always a pleasure. In this world of low self-esteems and people being afraid to speak out about faith; that's truly amazing. People need this. People need to stay positive. It's challenging especially in this climate but people are afraid to speak up about restoring that faith - especially with his situation. I believe and always will believe that a little faith goes a long way. The fear we've got has to go away. It's limiting us from being the best we can be and enjoying every moment as it is.
@Rainbow Monkeys Couldnt agree more with you there. "The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble." and so the proverb goes: "Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end." It is tough times for sure, and it hard for many, and will only get harder from here on out for everyone if history is anything to go by. a little faith does go a long way indeed, as JC said: "If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you."
@Sheamus ππ! "Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you." - That's powerful right there and something we've seem to have forgotten. Look beyond the turmoil right now and strive for a better future. I believe perseverance, which are of the fruits of the spirit - are there to help one navigate through such difficult times. They do pardon the soul when read and implemented properly.
@Rainbow Monkeys When read and implimented properly YES! I agree "Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding." It is all about the understanding, words of wisdom are of no value if it is not understood. Wisdom, "She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her. Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her." Always a pleasure to exchange words and ideas with you π
@Sheamus Hahaha hahaha, sure thing, I too enjoy it. Breath of fresh air indeedπ― .
