Paul Walker got a spotlight in the forums, so the least we can do is hold a moment of remembrance for the bold and courageous, Nelson Mandela.
If you really want to do something, go ahead and run Minmatar suits in honor of his struggle against apartheid.
That is all.

You do realize this will cause South Africa to fall apart and will return to a much darker time. Murder rate is steadily climbing, while an ethic cleansing is going on behind the scenes. White farmers are being raped, killed, and there homes burned or seized by the locals. So I ask you were is the progression. Why is it when a leader who looks to the future dies, that the country he fought so hard for reverts back to the age before or even worse even further. There is an average 50+ murders a day, that is a total of 18250 murders a year that is recorded. Now think about the ones that are not. The UN estimates the number is more to 300K or more a year. This is sad, but the truth and we in the west have to come to realize and that is there is no hope for them and we should let them wipe each other out and that goes for the Middle East.

This may have more to do with economics than the death of Mandela.
I would rather look bad and win, than look good and lose.

True economics does play a part. Ever since Mandela became sick and unable to lead the country there are those who have risen to power that is expedited this downward spiral.

Um... that was Morgan Freeman. Though he did look remarkably similar to Nelson Mandela.
OK, CCP. When are knives finally going to be improved?

I hate to say it but that man , while I agreed with him in principle (wanting to free his nation), I found that some of his actions in earlier life abhorrent. Most people dont know of the atrocities his actions and his affiliates committed.
He was associated with terrorist gangs. In South Africa during the 1960's and 70's, barely a week went by without terrorism. (This should remind you of the Afghan struggle)Dynamite explosions at a fuel depot, a car bomb outside Air Force headquarters in in a city centre. The list goes on.
January 8, 1982 attack on the Koeberg nuclear power plant near Cape Town, the Church Street bombing on May 20, 1983, killing 19, and the June 14 1986 car-bombing of Magoo's Bar in Durban, in which 3 people were killed and 73 injured.
The ANC's guerilla force, known simply as MK, or more formally as Umkhonto we Sizwe translated "Spear of the Nation" was founded in 1961 by Nelson Mandela and his associate, the Communist Joe Slovo.
In 1985, when the government offered to release Mandela if he would repudiate terrorism, he refused. In 1990, he was let out anyway and vowed the MK would continue to wreak havoc. My farther recalls news he heard when he was younger about the MK putting rubber car tyres filled with flamable liquids like petrol around peoples heads , literally burning their heads off. This is the kind of barbaric acts allowed to happen by Nelsons MK.
Now I am not saying that Nelson Directly did such horrible crimes but he was not a saint as we are all led to believe. My real problem is that freedom fighters in other parts of the world are branded as terrorists. Yet this man is hailed as a saviour.
We must agree that that is a double standard? |

He was a fighter. He did what he believed in but he was no hero of peace. |

Just to add -
Before I am accused of calumny, it should be noted that Mandela does not seek to hide his past, in his autobiography 'the long walk to Freedom' he casually admits 'signing off' the 1983 Church Street bombing carried out by the ANC and killing 19 innocent people whilst injuring another 200.
I also want to add one more VERY IMPORTANT point.
I had a friend who lived out in South Africa for a number of years who recently returned to the UK. We caught up and asked him what life was like out there. He loved it! His parents home that he was at was lovely he said. He went on to talk about how amazing the weather is compared to cloudy UK (Who wouldn't) However he went on to add that if he went more than a few streets away or further afield a few blocks away from his residential area that life was VERY bad. Many people out their, still live in oppression. A lot of people are homeless squatters. Street gangs and thugs roam wild. It is not a nice place to live unless you are wealthy.
So in reality nothing has changed. This is 2012 to 2013 I am talking about, not decades ago in some long forgotten past.
Also that Tyre around the neck thing was called - 'Necklacing' and from what I read is starting to be reported again in South Africa. |

Rest in peace, Nelson Mandela.
May the South Africa he left find its way through its troubles. It's not perfect, but it's not ruled by a literally ****-inspired racist regime, anymore, either.
Edit:
Apparently the political party that led Germany during WWII is not fit for mention here without the profanity filter getting involved. Fair enough, I guess.... |

Mexico has crime that makes South Africa and the Syrian War look like Utopia. Don't fight me on that, it is fact, statistics prove it, also I am Mexican. Despite this, Mexico will be a Global Powerhouse, in the ranks of China and Russia by 2050.
If Mexico isn't going under, neither is South Africa.
The best thing we could do to let them progress would be to leave them alone. If we interfere, we are just going to burn all we touch and replace it with weaker substitutes.
Intervention distabalizes.
