I'm sure we can find people from history you admire who have had a hand in the death of more innocent people than Mandela. The point is that it's not your call to judge, you aren't the people who were terrorised. If the man is revered in his own country as a hero and freedom fighter then that is how history will see him. You get to have your opinion, but it doesn't matter to anyone but you.

You are right but yet the same can be said of the people forcing their opinion on me. The few Saffas I do know hate Mandela though and the major rise in black on white crime that was reported (slightly) during the World Cup. He is not as revered as most places would have you believe but then nothing ever is when people try to paint a picture.

The issue with Mandela is that he killed innocent people not just 'high value targets' . If it had been just 'high value targets' then I hold my hands up but it is not. The MK was a violent organisation that killed a lot of people and Mandela knew about this. If he had stuck with the ANC then his role would be viewed more favourably but he chose the violent option and there is never a reason to kill innocent people and neither is there a sane reason to back someone who does that.

However I do hold my hands up and say there needs to be more people in the world with his convictions as the world is lacking in people who are willing to stand up and fight off apartheids and oppressive governments. They just need to be less evil than Mandela

What I'm saying is that the way your mind operates you would also consider Spartacus a terrorist.

Ah. Well you are wrong in that respect. I also do not believe in conspiracy theories as you mentioned. I just have a differing opinion as do many other people. This does not make me a troll but rather just another person. The fact that Mandela went from non violent protest to founding the MK says a lot about the person. He oversaw the deaths of many innocent people which is an act of terror.

I fail to see how that is relevant.

Mandela is a terrorist and no sugar coated campaign can disguise it. Next people will be saying Mother Teresa was a nice person...

I love the fact that people think I am trolling just because I have a differing opinion. The attitude of some on here is pathetic really

Mandela is critically ill, apparently.

I just read that. I am unsure about what to feel as when he goes it is another terrorist dead but then the BBC and the media will try and big him up as some sort of saint when he is far from it.

I doubt even Sir 'Arry would spunk out on Tony V so it is more likely (if true) they know he has a different number next year

I thought of that beforehand and just posted without scrolling up. Just finished the first season and am completely hooked now. Dragons!

The Dragons get killed off by the end of the second season

I didn't say I had any moral objection to it did I?

Just that it's a fucking business and they're going to go after things that are illegally harming their business.

I don't see how you can struggle to understand that concept.

Sorry I wasn;t directing it at yu but rather ranting against them.

I understand the greed all too well but ultimately they should stop being racist and letting us see our games somehow rather than letting other countries do so

Fuck harming the EPL. Maybe the shitcunts should give us an option to watch all of our countries games before attacking sites that offer the games to us.

Just installed Windows 7 64bit on my computer, IE 10 is seriously good. I hated IE before this, will be my default browser for sure, so snappy.

I thought it was good to start with but it had MAJOR issues after a day. Give it a wind berth and try Maxthon or one of the two Comodo browsers

I was in a team that got beaten 21-0 once.

I didn't get a fucking standing ovation.

I remember a game like that in Runcorn. We got pumped by a similar score and their half of the pitch was perfect while our half was like a bog. The ref never changed sides at half time either

My summer show exhibition's private view is tomorrow, opens to the public on Saturday. Quite nervous about it really, but excited too.

The end of Uni is here, where the fuck has the time gone?

Where is the public viewing?

Since the player clearly fell when touched, I see no relevance whatsoever to Gerrard and Suarez. Not sure if it was a penalty mind, as it looks like it could have just been an accident and it looks like the Italian player got the ball, but to suggest that is a dive is hilarious.

He stands on the player himself and goes over. Any other contact is minimal at best
