They should all leave and let South Africa burn. That country is lost. There is no recovery for them.
Why do I have the feeling that some white guy stole your girlfriend who was laughing at your small dick anytime you wanted to have sex with her and failed?
It goes back to the question if there is a well run country or US city with blacks as the majority. I can't seem to think of one.
I dated someone from South Africa. She spoke fondly of the place, but I never got into it with her about why she left. She was definitely a bit strange though; that's why I broke up with her. She was nice, hard working, and successful though, I'll say that. She bought a house on her own at quite a young age.

Here's a bit of real info in amongst the nonsense.
When I was there last I talked to a white B&B owner/ grape grower who moved to the Wine Country in the Western Cape. They had retired from pharma jobs in Cape Town and wanted to do something different.
There was little crime or violence there. Living there is like living in the SW US, much like Utah actually. There are some blacks who do feel anger towards whites, but most have moved on. The are the majority, and they have the power and growing prosperity. They are not so interested in wasting time on the whites bc it really doesn't matter. The ones who are are ones likely to be really poor an uneducated and angry, and they are a threat to everyone really. Far more blacks get robbed, killed and raped than whites.
She did understand and support blacks get AA rights, bc so much was done to hold them down. They were forbidden to attend higher education, and were kept dumb and poor. Whites are needed bc they are the ones who hold most of the skills, but this will change as time passes. She was worried about their son a bit who was finishing university. It was likely there would be an under qualified black in upper mgmt who was there just to fill quotas, but again, it takes time to rebuild the system. He will have to work harder than he would have a number of years ago, but he still has huge adv and opportunities. Basically, its sucks but its fair.
Another friend of ours, an white American from NE moved there 10 years ago and started her own business in Joburg. She employs many blacks, and has had to prove herself for being white and female, but she succeeded. She does live in a compound and have a security service (ie ADT), and everyone who has money does. Inequity there is vast. ( btw. ADT there is not some BS mallcop who calls your house if an alarm goes. These fuckers are heavily armored paramilitary men w/ assault rifles who will kick some ass.) Again, this is Joburg. Most of the country is not like this.
Much of the problem comes from huge poverty levels, and the poor there are incredibly poor. (Our poor would be middle class in SA for the most part.) Millions of people have fled Zimabawe to SA as well, and they fill the shanty towns. There is where much of the crime is and its against anyone with anything worth stealing. I've seen estimates of 12M refugees from Zimb. in SA. SA has a pop of 45M. That would be like 80M Mexicans coming illegally to the US, but far more poor and for no jobs to be had here. Think of what that would do here.
In the end tho, SA has a lot of potential and opportunity and is the envy of much of Africa. They will do just fine w/o the f'ing Canadians, or the US for that matter. China, Europe and India are more than willing to go in, invest and reap the benefits.
