To the people who just cried 'no one is above the law' and 'justice is justice no matter towards who' seem to think it's what they deserve for being white and owning land.
isn't that the colonizers did originally? only they took black owned land right? So the question is, is turn around actually fair play?
Seriously Lost, that's the way these things should go? So if some Indian shows up at your door, tells you to leave because he wants land your ancestors took from his ancestors, you're just gonna pack up and leave? If he attacks you, what are we suppose to do? Sit back, watch and say 'that's too bad, but you know, Lost had it coming...." if they've taken over the government, get up and leave is exactly what I'd do, what else can I do? die? for what? dirt? fight? how? they own the government.... therefor superior fire power oh, and if you say, it's more than just dirt, it's blah blah blah, then yeah, that's exactly how THEY felt when whitey killed them and took it from them.
I might try to explain to them that I'm a 3rd generation here, we came over around WWI I believe, so my family directly didn't take the land from them and I'd be happy to continue renting from them... yeah, I rent, so moving isn't exactly a catastrophe for me.
but by all means, if you think it's worth dying for, that's your choice...
oh, and we aren't talking hundreds of years here though. South Africa got "independence in 1910, and apartheid, you know, that racist thing you seem to support as a better life, only ended in 1994
