[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 1001280, member: 40658"] BLM has it's own website, and on the frontpage of that site, they are asking for donations. Isn't that basically a non-profit organisation then?? Wikipedia?? seriously? I can edit pages on Wikipedia, anyone can. How many times have people used Wikipedia as a source of reference and then others have used other sites as more accurate information? It's every person's choice!! Don't try and force anyone to jump on a bandwagon... Yes No, but then again, I live in Africa where the black community is nearly 99% of our population. And over here, we feel the police aren't doing enough to stop crime, and perhaps using their powers more harshly, will bring better results. This isn't a simple question ncurd. demographics, socio-economics, and various other factors need to be considered when asking this question. And the answer won't be the same in every country, purely because people will look at their own country/area as a source of reference and make an opinion from there. Yes, but using a violent criminal as a poster boy for a movement that is using the race-card as their fuel to the fire, is perhaps not the right way to win support in many countries. There are way too many articles, posts, social media feeds out there now for people to not get behind this movement either. It's still a choice. Guess I don't qualify them, does that now automatically disqualify me from having a discussion on this issue?? Well Renaldo Bothma has started this debate, and I think it's just a matter of time for others to join in. I might not be able to provide you with a link as to the religion being the reason, but I am in the same church groups as some of these guys so I guess it's because of that and that I've personally seen Lood and Faf in the same type of church as myself, that I tend to lean that this might be the reason. As for the burning of bibles, that happened in Portland, Oregon, and there are a lot of websites posting about that. As for the churches being vandalised, that happened in Boston. **The news articles I read about these acts of the church and bible, might be reliable, it might not. I don't know enough about those news sites to say whether it's accurate or not, and will happily retract my remarks about this if someone would tell me that it's not true** [/QUOTE]
