    An anecdotal recount by a black South African friend of mine made me recoil last night. He and some friends had happened upon a South African bar ironically named "Zulu's". Upon entry they quickly realized they were not at all welcome, the white Africaans crowd made this abundantly clear. They made a hasty u-turn, ten years or more after apartheid was crushed in their homeland here they were experiencing it in "multicultural" London.

    Not surprising....once a racist, always a racist.
    "Criticism must be sharp… If you do not do things well, I won't be satisfied with it, and if I offend you, I offend you, and that's that. To be afraid of offending people is nothing more than being afraid of losing votes and being afraid of having difficult relations in one's work with one's co-workers. Will I starve if you don't vote for me? Nothing of the sort. Actually, relations will be smoother if you speak out and put the problem clearly on the table… A bull has two horns because it has to fight. One purpose is for defense and another purpose is for offence. I have often asked comrades, Have you grown any horns on your head?' You comrades can feel your heads and see… I think that it's better to grow two horns,' because that conforms to Marxism" - Mao
