WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?!?! WHO!? HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! WHAT IN THEE BLUE HELL!? WHAT KINDA SHIT, HOLD UP!? Lemme go back and post this link to the music RIGHT NOW, LEMME EMBED THIS RIGHT FUCKIN NOW!? WHERE THIS MUSIC!? SAYS EVERYTHING!
Please note for anyone who is Tarantino fan, you will find at the start of Above the Laws 1990 Remix of What Cha Can Prove that the IRONSIDE fanfare-horn blare that Tarantino used in Kill Bill? More likely than not he heard this song and heard exactly how it could be used to intro into something, someone or a reveal. Because if you don't know any better and don't know this song is from 1990, LONG BEFORE KILL BILL, then you'd have a good chance of believing that Above the Law BIT OFF OF TARANTINO in deciding to use it when it was the other way around. So I NEEDED TO POINT THAT OUT because some of you when you click on this obscure CLASSIC JAM, then the first thought you'll have when you hear it start is;
"AWWWWWWWWWWWW!? THEY STOLE THAT FROM KILL BILL!"
No. They sampled Ironside the TV show and put it in their song as an intro accompaniment and then Tarantino came along over 10-years later and BIT OFF OF THEM! Now, with that done? Let's get into what I've posted below. This White South African Supremacist honestly somehow thought he was safe enough to have always HATED BLACK PEOPLE, but then Apartheid ends, and his dumb White-ass is STILL TALKING SHIT!? He then CONTINUES TO ACT LIKE HE HAS OVERT, BLATANT, WHITE PRIVILEGE LIKE HE HAD DURING APARTHEID! So he's still spewing HIS SHIT OF HOW DUMB AND INFERIOR BLACKS ARE, BUT HE'S GOT BLACKS STILL WORKING FOR HIS ASS!??!?! WHAT THE FUCK!?
-_-
No, I'm serious. What the fuck. Look at how DEEPLY INGRAINED THIS BULLSHIT GOES, where Whites are SO COMFORTABLE. SO ACCUSTOMED, to just FUCKIN OVER BLACK PEOPLE, that even when PW Botha is like "Uhhh, okay, the OVERT DOMINATION IS OVER. Annnnnnnnnd I'm outta here!" this muthafucka EUGENE, ha! Eugene Terre'Blanche! Let's look at some background info on dumb-ass Eugene here AND PAY ATTENTION TO THE FACT THAT THIS WHITEMAN, was also a POLICE OFFICER at one time in South Africa.
.jpg)
So for all Black, White, and whomever else is reading this LOOKIT! Look at THE SAME FUCKIN PATTERN that Whites take where once power is taken it becomes about keeping that power and then using it to FUCK OVER ANYONE WHO GETS IN THEIR WAY! Especially when they are Black. Wanna-talk about Peace, Love, Non-Violence, Can we Fuck Your Women, Can we Fuck Your Men, Can you NOT KILL ME PLEASE!? They will listen to you alllllllllllllllllllll day long, long as your dumb Black-ass is yappin and handclappin and coonin-n-buffonin! THEY LOVE YA! Cuz you're not doing shit and you're not a threat, meanwhile? The White-BIGOTS realize that if they really want to get their WHITE POWER ON, they DIVEST from being in the Ku Klux Klan. They DIVEST from being in an openly Bigoted White Power Group, where other Whites are gonna find it hard as hell to defend you against Black People taking up arms AND KILLING YOU WHEN YOU GO TO KILL THEM! And YOU BECOME A POLICE OFFICER! And once you become a police officer, how can Black People be justified in killing you!? You're a cop! And you're not supposed to kill cops, it's wrong! Even though we have good sense that tells us, common sense that tells us, that just because someone claims they wish to "uphold the law". It doesn't mean that they view all people as people to be treated fairly UNDERNEATH THEIR EYES OF THE LAW. Add to this that if the environment says it's a-okay to kill certain people, as long as you don't kill other people, then how long before you get crazed maniacs posing as people "UPHOLDING THE LAW". And this is something that Whites have a history of using ON EACH OTHER. 
They use class to DESTROY ONE ANOTHER AND JUSTIFY IT. The Lower Class Whites then go through a proving process of showing that they will BLINDLY OBEY whatever social order is being pushed by the Upper Class Whites WHO SIT BELOW THE 1% WHITE LORDS-N-MASTERS, and let me make that CRYSTAL FUCKIN CLEAR. The 1% Whites ARE NOT Upper Class. They are the 1% and you can figure out for yourself who these White and White Jewish Families are, because they aren't hard to spot anymore because they've become so fuckin comfortable like Eugene's dumb-ass did. You usually find them at the center of some of the most horrific BUSINESS ENTERPRISES and if you click on the music above, you see why I decided to use IT while I type this. Because it is APPROPRIATE. .jpg)
From the American Prison Industrial Complex that has a direct pipeline for Black children, boys and girls that ties them to the Special Education Complex, which leads to being over medicated for the normal actions of being a child, ending them in becoming Black cash-cows for White owned and controlled Pharmaceuticals. Underfunded schools where Black taxes are diverted away from the Black community and either DISPERSED THROUGHOUT THE CITY. Meaning that Black American Schools will never be able to gain the funds they need to allow them to even keep current curriculum materials up to date, but also!? The Private Security Industry that makes A LOT OF MONEY putting metal detectors in these destitute Black Schools and then finally as the over medicated, under educated Black Kids become more and more unruly, they then get sent to Juvenile Detection Centers and then shipped to the nearest Prison the moment that the opportunity becomes available or they make the next slightest screw-up!.tif)
At the center of all of this are the 1% Whites who own massive shares in the stocks of these businesses. Private sector monstrosities who have no regard for anyone or anything and really deserve to be dragged out into the street and beaten to death with bats and rocks. The funny thing is that the 1% Whites? Aren't actually White Supremacist. They are the ruling power over ALL WHITE PEOPLE, and they toss carrots at various times in White History to move White People to do things where in all honesty Whites do what they do because they are constantly being told by the 1%'s mouthpieces that they will get something out of it. If it's oil from the Iraq Invasion, even though it was supposed to be about Weapons of Mass Destruction and Saddam Hussein's involvement with 911. The 1% will cause the extermination of the White Race and quietly disappear without losing one ounce of sleep. They feed off of White people like Eugene Terre'Blanche and the concept of White Supremacy while always knowing that as long as THEY STAY HIDDEN AND OUT OF THE WAY, when, not if, BUT WHEN, White Supremacy ENDS. Their only goal is to be able to be among the SURVIVING WHITES. Nothing more, nothing less. And whatever happens to the rest of the White Race is their own problem. You don't have to take my word for it, but I do know I had the chance to MEET one of these... thingsss..... When I was a high schooler. It was an....?Interesting conversation. .tif)
Bottom line is that they push White Supremacy and they feed off it, but unlike Eugene they know that when the paradigm shifts? You really ought to take that seriously and not be so fuckin stupid to think you can keeping on telling the people you fucked over, that you're gonna keep on fuckin them over. As a Blackman, this is why I said fuck Nelson Mandela, because the Nelson Mandela's of the world, the Martin Luther King's of the world, they don't teach us as Black People to STUDY OUR ENEMIES JUST LIKE THEY STUDY US. Instead they disarm us with lies and bullshit, meanwhile? Having been able to do whatever they've wanted TO US for SO LONG, that the person, White Person in this instance, Whiteman, good ole Eugene. He thought that he could keep having Black People be his FREE SLAVE-LABOR, or whatever!? And at NO POINT would they ever turn around and say to him that it was time for him to die. And because of his own self-assured arrogant-stupidity, he got killed. Lemme post his wiki and get going because I still have PLENTY TO POST! PLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNTY, to fuckin post! .jpg)
Shout out to all of the Black People who used to ride with me back in the day. Sorry I'm late. I thought things would just "fix themselves" and all of that fairy tale shit. My fault. Totally misread the tea leaves on that one, which is another reason why I'm scrambling around now and getting my life back to what it used to be. Lemme get going and I'll be back throughout the day WITH MORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE POST!
LATER!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Eugène Terre'Blanche
Eugène Ney Terre'Blanche (31 January 1941[n 1] – 3 April 2010) was a South African politician who was the founder and leader of the Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging (AWB).[1] Prior to the AWB, Terre'Blanche served as a South African Police officer, was a farmer, and represented the Herstigte Nasionale Party in the Eastern Transvaal. He was a major figure in a right-wing backlash during the collapse of apartheid,[2] and his beliefs and philosophy have continued to be influential among white nationalists in South Africa.[3]
Under Terre'Blanche, the AWB swore violence to preserve minority rule, opposing any concessions offered to the African National Congress – an organisation their supporters repeatedly branded as Marxist terrorists[2] – and gaining notoriety for storming the Kempton Park Trade Centre during bilateral negotiations in 1993. AWB loyalists also clashed with South African security forces at the Battle of Ventersdorp, a bloody 1991 skirmish in which police opened fire on a white crowd for the first time since the Rand Rebellion, leaving three Afrikaners dead.[4] Immediately prior to South Africa's first multiracial elections, Terre'Blanche's followers were linked to a number of bombings and assassinations targeting the South African Communist Party; armed AWB commandos even participated in Bophuthatswana's abortive 1994 coup d'état.[3]
Terre'Blanche spent three years in a Rooigrond prison for assaulting a petrol station attendant and for the attempted murder of a black security guard around 1996.[5] He was released in June 2004.[5] On April 3, 2010, the controversial AWB leader was hacked and beaten to death on his Ventersdorp farm, allegedly by two of his employees. Conservative Afrikaners have suggested that the killing was part of a larger pattern of farm invasions in South Africa.[6]
(Please note that this wiki for Eugene the Jackass has the nerve to say that Conservative Afrikaners have suggested that the killing was part of a larger pattern of farm invasion in South Africa. The video below will show you that Eugene was actually killed BY HIS OWN BLACK WORKERS, where this jackass was still caught-up in the Old South Africa, where Whites KNEW they could treat Black South Africans like SHIT! And knew that MOST Black South Africans WOULDN'T DARE OPENLY KILL THEM WHEN THEY'VE BEEN GIVEN A JOB. This ties back to many of my other posts where I highlight the fact that Whites and White Jews and Arabs AND OPPRESSORS IN GENERAL, run the same ploy of reducing us as Black People to ECONOMIC DESTITUTION AND DEPENDENCY ON THEM! THUS WE CANNOT BREAK AWAY FROM THEM.
They then UNDERMINE AND CONTROL OUR ABILITY TO LEARN AND EDUCATE OURSELVES, thus creating Black People who DON'T HAVE THE TECHNICAL SKILLS, no medical skills, no scientific skills, no military training! None of the critical skills, banking-finance, AGRICULTURE-FARMING! Without these SKILLS YOU'RE DEAD AS A NATION! DEAD AS A PEOPLE! DEPENDENT! It makes you EASY TO CONTROL. They then weed out who is willing to lick-balls and kiss-ass AND THEN THEY PROMOTE THESE TRAITORS.
They give them better education, better pay, they USE THEM to then begin attacking the masses of Blacks and letting them see that IF YOU SUBMIT TO US AND KOWTOW AND LICK-BALLS AND STOP RESISTING, then you can be like these Sambo-Coons here eating good. Running water. Real roof over your head, no shack. A DECENT WAGE, so you can finally stop letting your women get fucked in the ass by us! Or they can stop turning into Negro Bedwenches and having our half-breed children WHO WE WILL TELL ARE BETTER THAN YOU AND THEIR OWN MOTHER AND GIVE THEM PRIVILEGES, as long as they show loyalty and fealty to us and White People and their White Father. Bear in mind that this level of utter eradication of entire civilizations-races of people and places, has really been taken to a whole 'nother level by Whites, who learned their tricks from Arabs. Now back to Eugene!)
Background
Terre'Blanche's grandfather fought as a so-called "Cape Rebel" for the Boer cause in the Second Boer War, and his father was a lieutenant colonel in the South African Defence Force.[7]
The progenitor of the Terre'Blanche name (translatable as either 'white land' or 'white earth' in French) in the region was a French Huguenot refugee, Estienne Terreblanche from Toulon (Provence), who arrived at the Cape in 1704, fleeing anti-Protestant persecution in France.[8] The Terreblanche name has generally retained its original spelling though other spellings include Terre'Blanche, Terre Blanche, Terblanche and Terblans.[9]
Born on a farm in the Transvaal town of Ventersdorp on 31 January 1941,[10][11] Terre'Blanche attended Laerskool Ventersdorp and Hoër Volkskool in Potchefstroom, matriculating in 1962. While in school, he gave early expression to his political leanings by founding the cultural organisation Jong Afrikanerharte (Young Afrikaner Hearts).[7]
He joined the South African Police, and was initially deployed in South West Africa (now Namibia),[1] which had been given to South Africa under a League of Nations Trust mandate after World War I. Upon returning to South Africa proper, he became a Warrant Officer in the Special Guard Unit, which was assigned to members of the Cabinet.[1]
Political career
Herstigte Nasionale Party
During the late 1960s, Terre'Blanche increasingly opposed what he called the "liberal policies" of B. J. Vorster, then Prime Minister of South Africa. After four years of service in the SAP, he resigned to pursue a career in politics, running unsuccessfully for local office in Heidelberg as a member of the Herstigte Nasionale Party.[1]
Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging
Disillusioned with the established avenues for political participation, Terre'Blanche founded the Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging in Heidelberg with six other individuals in 1973.[12] Initially a secret society, the AWB first appeared on the public scene after its members were charged with and fined for tarring and feathering Floors van Jaarsfeld, a professor of history who had publicly voiced the opinion that the Day of the Vow (previously calledDingaan's Day), a public holiday in remembrance of the Battle of Blood River, was nothing more than a secular event with hardly any real reference point in history.[13] Though Terre'Blanche would later express his regrets regarding the incident when testifying before the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, he suggested that his convictions relating to the sanctity of the Day of the Vow might make his actions more understandable.[14] In the years that followed, Terre'Blanche's speeches at public gatherings often evoked the Battle of Blood River,[13] and his oratorical skills earned him much support among the white right wing in South Africa; the AWB claimed 70,000 members at its height.[15]
Throughout the 1980s, Terre'Blanche continued to present himself and the AWB as an alternative to both the National Party-led government and the Conservative Party, and he remained staunchly opposed to the reform policies of PW Botha to establish additional, albeit still separate, parliamentary chambers for non-whites, and to grant suffrage to Coloureds and South Africans of Indian origin.[16] The organisation's strongest support was found in the rural communities of South Africa's North, with comparably few supporters in urban areas where his following was largely limited to the middle and lower income Afrikaners.[16]
Terre'Blanche viewed the end of apartheid as a surrender to communism, and threatened full scale civil war if President FW de Klerk handed power to Nelson Mandela and the African National Congress.[13] When De Klerk addressed a meeting in Terre'Blanche's hometown of Ventersdorp in 1991, Terre'Blanche led a protest, and the Battle of Ventersdorp ensued between the AWB and the police, with a number of people killed.[17] Terre'Blanche claimed that it was only when he stood between the police and the AWB and demanded a ceasefire that the shooting ended. Terre'Blanche accused President de Klerk of instigating the riot for political gain. (95)[18]
In an attempt to disrupt the negotiation process in 1993, Terre'Blanche accompanied by General Constand Viljoen and Conservative Party parliamentarian Thomas Langley led an armed invasion of the World Trade Centre in Kempton Park while negotiations were in progress.[19] After a memorandum of grievances were presented to National Party minister Roelf Meyer and Dawie de Villiers and upon concluding and agreement that no arrests would be made, the AWB withdrew from the premises.[20] However that evening several identified AWB leaders were arrested and their wives were incarcerated in Soweto, separately from their husbands.[21] Vlakplaas General Krappies Engelbrecht was appointed to launch an investigation.[22]
Terre'Blanche claimed he and President Lucas Mangope of the predominantly ethnic Tswana Homeland of Bophuthatswana came to a "mutual agreement" on 17 February 1992 to aid each other in the "event of a communist threat"[23] On 4 March 1994 Mangope announced that Bophutatswana would not participate in the South African general election[24] in an effort to maintain Bophutatswana's independence from the Republic of South Africa.[25] Bophuthatswana's minister of justice, Godfrey Mothibe tried in vain to convince Mangope to participate in the election, but then accused the ANC of orchestrating the revolt, which was helped by the stance taken by South Africa's then Minister of Foreign Affairs, Roelof "Pik" Botha. Thousands of ANC supporters were bussed in from areas outside of Bophuthatswana to support the popular uprising. Terre'Blanche claimed a conspiracy by citing a "three-step plan" by the ANC in an effort to destabilise Bophuthatswana, which included ANC infiltration of the Bophuthatswana police and military.[25]However, ANC candidate for the North West Province, Popo Molefe claimed the ANC was merely supporting the people of Bophuthatswana after it became clear that their political freedoms were limited.[citation needed]
Terre'Blanche claimed he had personally communicated with Mangope on 10 March 1994 (107), prior to mobilising his men to protect the capital Mmabatho against looting and unrest. (110) Officers of the Bophuthatswana Defence Force initially received the AWB militia with "great joy and surprise". (Vuur en Verraad, Arthur Kemp) The AWB militia assembled in an airport hangar in Mmabatho, where they were to be provided with rations and firearms. Terre'Blanche ordered his men to remove their AWB badges upon the request of the Bophuthatswana Defence Force. While contained at the hangar, an unidentified and independent faction carrying the AWB emblems started shooting indiscriminately at the public. Terre'Blanche concluded that the South African intelligence services may have set up the shooting in order to discredit the AWB, since the media broadcast footage of the individuals' emblems, but did not publicise their identity. (105) The Bophuthatswana police systematically began to remove the media from strategic locations, and the initial hospitality shown to the AWB militia was replaced by contempt. When Bophuthatswana fell into complete anarchy, the AWB withdrew.[citation needed]
The AWB were subsequently defeated while invading Bophuthatswana to prop up the autocratic leader of the bantustan in 1994 and, consequently, Terre'Blanche did not follow up on his earlier threats of war.[20][26][27]
Media image
Terre'Blanche was lampooned in the 1991 documentary The Leader, His Driver and the Driver's Wife, directed by British filmmaker Nick Broomfield. A sequel, His Big White Self, was first broadcast in February 2006. Terre'Blanche was also interviewed by Louis Theroux in episode 3.3 "Boer Separatists" of the BBC series Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends.[28]
In 1988, the AWB was beset by scandal when claims of an affair with journalist Jani Allan surfaced. In July 1989, Cornelius Lottering, a member of the breakaway Orde van die Dood group, orchestrated a failed assassination attempt on Allan's life by placing a bomb outside her Sandton apartment.[29]
Broomfield's 1991 documentary claimed Terre'Blanche had an affair with the Sunday Times journalist; a claim she denied as well as her portrayal in the documentary. This led to Allan taking libel proceedings against the documentary broadcaster Channel 4 in 1992 in the London High Court. During the trial, several transcripts of their alleged sexual relationship appeared in the South African and British press.[30] Terre'Blanche submitted a sworn statement[31] to the London court denying he had had an affair with Allan. In a rare interview with the Afrikaans Sunday newspaper Die Rapport, his wife Martie Terre'Blanche denounced the rumours. Although the judge found that Channel 4's allegations had not defamed Allan, he did not rule on whether or not there had been an affair.[32] The South African business newspaper Financial Mail published a lead story on 6 August detailing the theory that F.W. de Klerk had orchestrated the libel case to discredit Terre'Blanche and the far right movement in South Africa.[33] Allan has continued to dismiss the claims.[34]
Terre'Blanche was widely ridiculed after he was filmed falling off his horse during a parade in Pretoria. After his murder the state-owned SABC said on the evening news that he would be remembered "as a failed horseman".[35] Terre'Blanche claimed the media only showed part of the fall and explained that unedited footage of the incident would show that the horse had slipped.[36] He accused the media of double standards in reporting when praising Mbhazima Shilowa when he fell from, but immediately remounted his horse.[36]
In 2004, he was controversially voted No. 25 in SABC3's Great South Africans from a list of 100 South African personalities.[37] Controversy over the list led the SABC to cancel the television series.[citation needed]
In 2014 Jani Allan published a letter that would go viral in which she compared murder-accused, Oscar Pistorius with Terre'Blanche. Allan described Terre'Blanche as an "unformed man, someone who had no innate integrity, no spirituality and one who certainly had not developed as an individual." Allan added that Terre'Blanche was "given to boasting, vain in all things, narcissistic in the extreme and flying into terrible rages when things didn’t go his way."[38]
Amnesty
Following the end of apartheid, Terre'Blanche and his supporters sought amnesty for the storming of the World Trade Centre, the 'Battle of Ventersdorp', and other acts.[39][40] Amnesty was granted by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.[17]
Later years
In March 2008, the AWB announced the re-activation of the political party, for 'populist' reasons, citing the encouragement of the public. Reasons for the return have been attributed principally to attacks on commercial farmers and ethnic Boers, the electricity crisis, corruption across government departments and rampant crime.[41] Throughout April 2008, Terre'Blanche was to be the speaker at several AWB rallies, encompassing Vryburg, Middelburg, Mpumalanga and Pretoria.[42]
He had been calling for a "free Afrikaner republic", and vowed to take his campaign to the United Nations' International Court of Justice in The Hague in a bid to secure this. He favoured large tracts of land that had been purchased from the ethnic Swazis in the eastern portion of the South African Republic, from the Zulus in northern Natal, and others, as well as largely uninhabited portions[43] of the interior that had been settled by the Voortrekkers. In June 2008, it was announced that the AWB Youth Wing would be launched and Terre'Blanche was to be its founding member.[44]
In a video interview in 2008, he voiced his objection to a proposal to change the iconic Springbok emblem of the South Africa national rugby union team (Springboks). He stated that the Springbok emblem could be replaced with an impala or kudu for sports teams representing the new Afrikaner republic.[45]
In September 2009 he addressed a 3-day convention attended by 300 Afrikaners which was intended to develop a strategy for "Boer liberation". Terre'Blanche reinforced earlier claims for land in Northern Natal and the Eastern Transvaal.[46] In October 2009 several right-wing groups led by Terre'Blanche outlined their future plans at a Ventersdorp meeting. In an interview with the Mail and Guardian he said he wanted to unite 23 organisations under one umbrella, in order to take, as he had vowed, the fight of "the free Afrikaner" to the International Court of Justice.
In an interview with the Mail and Guardian, he stated that he would publish his biography, Blouberge van Nimmer (The Blue Mountains of Long Ago), in December 2009.[47] The biography was ready for press at the time of his death and published under the name "My Storie", as told to Amos van der Merwe. A complaint was lodged in December 2009 with the South African Human Rights Commission regarding inflammatory comments he was alleged to have made.[48][49]
Conviction and prison sentence
On 17 June 2001, Terre'Blanche was sentenced to six years in prison, of which he served three years, for assaulting John Ndzima, a petrol station worker, and the attempted murder of Paul Motshabi, a security guard, in 1996.[50] Terre'Blanche denied both accusations and insisted on his innocence.[51] One of only three whites in the Rooigrond prison near Mafikeng, during his time in prison he claimed to have become a born-again Christian[52] and to have moderated many of his more racist views.[53]
Assault on Ndzima
The assault on Ndzima occurred after a confrontation over Ndzima's testimony against two white boys who had broken into a pharmacy in Ventersdorp. Terre'Blanche said that he merely argued with Ndzima after the burglary, questioning Ndzima's claims to have seen the burglars. According to Terre'Blanche, during the argument his dog broke loose and chased Ndzima. Terre'Blanche asked the state prosecution to explain why there was no blood on his overall after the alleged assault. He claimed that a bogus case had been built against him in order to "bury the conservative element of Afrikaner-nationalism in the shallow grave of injustice".[54] The court rejected his claims, concluding that Terre'Blanche had assaulted Ndzime as retribution for testifying against whites. Terre'Blanche later pointed out that his defence attorney suddenly resigned as a member of the ultra-conservative white Conservative Party's Volksraad and joined the ANC shortly after the conclusion of the court case.[54]
Attempted murder of Motshabi
Security Guard Paul Motshabi was permanently disabled when he was beaten up in 1996. He was crippled and intellectually impaired by brain damage sustained in the attack, and his wife left him. He was one of 16 victims of violence in the South Africa's North West who received new houses as part of the national government's campaign to mark sixteen days of activism against violence against women and children.[55]
Terre'Blanche also maintained his innocence in the Motshabi case, stating that he had discovered Motshabi already beaten in a park while patrolling Ventersdorp, after which he took him to the hospital. Although he was not present when the alleged attack happened, Gabriel Kgosimang, an ex-employee of Terre'Blanche, testified that his former employer had repeatedly beaten Motshabi over the head, upper body, neck and shoulders after he crashed into him with his vehicle. The official medical report only cites a single hit to the head.[56]
Subsequent disputes
Terre'Blanche was released on 11 June 2004.[57] The AWB website continued to claim that these accusations, along with other scandals involving him, were fabricated by the "Black Government and the left wing media".[15] Terre'Blanche subsequently stated that a policeman had identified the real attackers of Motshabi. The names were supposedly contained in a sealed envelope and kept in safekeeping with instructions given that this information would be released in case something "unnatural" should happen to him.[54]These names have not yet been released, despite the murder of Terre'Blanche.
Poet
Prior to the 1994 multi-racial elections, Terre'Blanche's Afrikaans-language works were on the state syllabus of Natal schools. Upon his release from jail, he quoted Wordsworth's poem I Wandered Lonely As a Cloud. He had previously released a CD of his poetry collection and most recently a DVD. The DVD was named "Inktrane", which is directly translated to English as "ink tears". This DVD was released through 11.3% Motion Pictures (Pty) Ltd.[42][58]
Murder
Terre'Blanche, who had lived in relative obscurity since the decline of his organisation,[59] was murdered on his farm Villana, just outside Ventersdorp, on 3 April 2010. He was beaten to death with pipes and pangas (machetes), while napping. His body was found on the bed with facial and head injuries.[60]
South African President Jacob Zuma, who followed up an overnight statement with a televised address[61] called for calm and for "responsible leadership"[61] following the murder, describing it as a "terrible deed;"[59][62] and described the murderer as "cowardly."[63]Zuma's words were echoed by the AWB and organisations including AfriForum and Solidarity. Minister of Police Nathi Mthethwa Commissioner of police, Bheki Cele and other high ranking police officials,[61] and politicians[64] visited Terre'Blanche's family in Ventersdorp the morning after the murder to express sympathy with the family.[65][66]
Two black males, Chris Mahlangu, aged 28, Patrick Ndlovu, aged 15, were arrested. Both were workers on Terre'Blanche's farm.[67] They were both charged with murder, and one was released on bail.[68] Terre'Blanche's daughter Bea told the media that the two workers had not been paid for March because her father could not get his banking in order before the Easter weekend, and that an arrangement had been made to pay them after the weekend. She stated that he had enjoyed a good relationship with his employees, which had been strengthened by their work with animals on the farm.[69]
Aftermath
Chris Mahlangu's announcement to other farm workers that he was "now their boss" fuelled suspicions that the murder was politically motivated.[70] The murder took place amid a racial controversy in South Africa involving the singing of a song by African National Congress Youth League leader Julius Malema,[59][59][61] which includes the lyrics "Shoot the Boer" ("Dubul' ibhunu").[66][71] The ANC, which had previously defended its right to sing the song, announced that it would consider a moratorium on the singing of the song, following the murder, in the interests of national cohesion.[61] Democratic Alliance leader Helen Zille said that the murder would "inflame tensions" in South Africa.[72] Malema denied the song had anything to do with the murder, and defended his singing of it, saying he was "ready to die," and that he was not scared of Boers, in reference to threats, later retracted, that Terre'Blanche would be avenged.[73] ANC leaders later announced a temporary ban on the singing of the song.[74]
Thousands attended Terre'Blanche's funeral, held at noon on 9 April 2010 at Ventersdorp's Protestant Church. Later the same day, he was buried on his farm.[75]
Court case
The two suspects appeared in court in Ventersdorp on 6 April 2010 amid racially charged scenes,[76] and were charged with murder, robbery and crimen injuria, for injuring the dignity of Terre'Blanche by leaving his pants pulled down after killing him. The AWB retracted earlier calls to avenge the murder as Zuma appealed for peace.[78] Nevertheless, members of the ANC supported the accused by turning up at the court in huge numbers, and singing revolutionary songs.[70] Terre'Blanche's supporters also turned up at the court, singing the former South African national anthem, Die Stem van Suid Afrika.[79]
On 22 May 2012, 29-year-old Chris Mahlangu was found guilty of the murder.[80] 18-year-old Patrick Ndlovu, the other man accused in the case, was acquitted of murder due to a lack of forensic evidence, though he was found guilty of breaking-in.[81] They had both pleaded not guilty, and declined to testify. Protesters from both sides were gathered outside the courthouse when the verdict was read.[82] Judge John Horn ruled that there was no evidence that Mahlangu had been acting in self-defence, and that the murder had been committed for financial reasons.[82] Although Mahlangu claimed that he had been raped, Horn declared that if that was the case he should have raised it immediately, which he failed to do. He also claimed that he had been acting in retaliation because he had been living in an "appalling condition... not fit for human habitation," as well as having experienced child exploitation on the farm.[80]
