So this is a thing that happened...

Nelson Mandela memorial sign language interpreter was a 'fake' (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/nelson-mandela-memorial-sign-language-interpreter-was-a-fake-8997486.html)

I just saw the news when I woke up this morning. While bourgeois clowns are always fun to laugh at, it is not funny when they end up disrespecting those who have won ground breaking victories for the struggle for equality.

lighten up pal.

WTF? How the hell could this happen? That's fucked up, and disrespectful as hell.

[Quail]

I'm kind of amazed this could be allowed to happen. It's like the sign language equivalent of, say, an interpreter from English to French just standing there and making French-sounding noises or something.

It's still possible that he was using another language... but, yes...

I didnt watch any of the coverage, did the guy look confident while he was signing or does he have a variation of "oh shit" written all over him? I just imagine some dude signing up for something he couldn't handle and trying to follow through instead of doing the logical thing haha

If you click the link there is a video in the article.

He seemed rather confident.

How the fuck do people think that they'll get away with this shit.

Dude stood there for four hours just waving his arms around. Maybe people should have noticed when he kept doing the same basic shit over and over again as if sign language is that simple compared to the hours of speeches being made. At least people did actually notice.
