Aids: I don't know a single person with it. That is "out in the veldt", thanks. Why bother to rattle off some figure, tough guy? That's like speaking about inner-city violence in America as if it's a problem for all Americans- it's contained in certain areas, and has absolutely no bearing on the lives of almost all Americans. Nice try.
Don't compare the South African native situation with that in North America-- at least blacks in SA are beginning to enter into a better period, and have SOME hope for the future. The Natives in your country-- 95% unemployment in many reservations, equally dismal alcoholism rates, wholesale cultural destruction. And we know whose fault it is. At least in SA many tribal groups maintain a good deal of their original culture. Further, we South Africans don't try to rectify past wrongdoing by handing the native peoples casinos and assuming that'll "make it all better"!
Yes, Spectre X, I've been to Oz. No, the land isn't more pleasant there than SA. Why bother to speak of Oz rules football? I'm speaking as an actual rugby player, not as a fanboy of another sport. Stop living vicariously.
