I think it would be. I’ve said throughout this that he is a scapegoat to divert attention from much greater culpability, including that of Thabo Mbeki.”

Quite funny how many people don’t get the point of Steve Biko.

He was no racist because he was secure in his knowledge of his own and black peoples worth. Take note Thabo Mbeki.

He did not use larnie language because he did not feel he had anything to prove.

“I was engaged in a long dialogue with Anonymouse at one time, since when he seems to have become more of a doormouse. Bongs was his sparring partner for a while – another regular contributor notable by his recent absence and, like Anonymouse, greatly missed of late.”

Since Wednesday last week I am involved in a long trial which is proceeding until Tuesday next week – hence my absence here. I am trying to catch up though and the exchanges are fascinating!
