Anyone see that horrible photo in the independent today?

Ninja_scrotum

They showed a guy getting "necklaced" in south africa - a tyre was put around his neck and set alight. They showed a before and after pic.

All I can say is poor bastard.

I worked with a guy that happened to, he got jumped for being the wrong colour in the wrong part of where he lived.

The scars are horrific and he still has screaming fits some nights because of it (we could hear him three houses up).

One of the nicest guys you could meet and he doesn't let it affect his life either.

Although judging by this guys scars the type was put down lower on him most likely upper body, pinning his arms in place.

Its a bit extreme to be funny, in fairness.

That's some pretty f**ked up sh1t!!

Why is the guy on his knees? Is he tied to something? It's just that usually when someone is on fire surely they run around and flap about trying to extinguish the fire.

All the same, pretty gruesome. It is hard to fathom man's inhumanity to fellow man at times.

i almost cant explain what looking at this just did - its kinda like slipping in & out of consciousness... like you cant really be seeing it...

execute the people who do it or .. or something... jesus thats horrific...

Its the same feeling i got looking at that girl who was attacked by her "friends on youtube" by 8 girls who kept punching her in the face. Her father didn't recognise her, all 8 girls have been arrested for it...

I remember them showing footage of one of those on the BBC news in the '80s when the ANC and Zulus were at war. Pretty horrific.

Who are the 'foreigners' they are referring to? Zimbabweans?

I will admit to morbidly clicking on those links, a not very healthy part of me wants to see. It's horrific. Hopefully one day the world will advance to the point where this doesn't happen.

Eh, it was black people who did this to black people. The black South Africans are attacking and killing black immigrants. If you look at the pictures, it was actually a white person putting the fire out on the poor man.

It is funny how people will automatically think white people for these type of incidents.

I've a friend who's back frm visiting South Africa, he befriended a taxi man and got an "insider view". He says when Nelson Mandela dies it will be in a huge turmoil, and as you can see frm the pics it's already crazy. Northern Africans vs South Africans (black v. black) as far as I picked up. Independent article backs that up.

Photo is shocking. I mean that as strong as the word can describe

What interests me is what mental state do you have to be in to feel such an act is justified? Do they enjoy the results or see them as a grim 'necessity'?

More of a heaving mob mentallity, i doubt anyone stood back and thought too deeply about it.

If no country is going to physically help over in Africa, they should at least send some Mercenaries.

Then again it would probably be like a scene from Black Hawk Down...:(

Crazy, that with all the memories of apartheid, still fresh, that you'd have this sort of racism happening now.

Why are you acting like this only happens in Africa? Have you never been in Northern Ireland where being a Catholic/Protestant in the wrong place can get you beaten to death and being a foreigner can get your house petrol bombed? As if this ridiculous, irrational hatred only exists in Africa. A couple were doused in petrol and set on fire in the North recently. There are sick, sick people everywhere.

Basically SA is still a developing country but is being seriously mismanaged by Thabo Mbeki. He's had almost 8 years of power and hasn't built on the Mandela era. Unemployment at 25% and way higher in the townships where this occurred. Has taken idiotic stances on AIDS/HIV. Has taken a cowardly stance on the whole Zimbabwe issue by essentially letting Mugabe do whatever the hell he likes and now it's coming back to bite him in the ass.
He mishandled the immigrants fleeing Zimbabwe and now risks tipping SA over the edge. Thankfully he's soon leaving power but I don't know if his replacement is going to be much better considering he's already up on corruption charges.
It's sad really as a strong SA is needed for a strong Africa

nice1franko

the scariest thing is that it wasn't even paramilitary/vigilante types... just ordinary folks.

There was a concrete pillar lying near him, splattered with blood. We can only imagine what was done to him before he was set alight.

The police stayed with him until the paramedics arrived, doing what they could . But residents gathered at the scene were laughing.

Kim Ludbrook, a photographer, admonished them, and we reminded them this was human being and that what had happened was barbaric. Still they laughed.

The burn victim, whose name has not been released, died last night in hospital.

A. that was horrible, thoughts of what humans are capable of doing to other humans is unbelievable, we are truly the most savage of all creatures on the earth.

B. i really dont think linking to a ****e, i mean site, like stormfront should be encouraged, especially from a mod???

NoQuarter

jaysus i was in SA last year and it was lovely , wont let this stop me goin back neither

Ninja_scrotum

i'm still sick thinking about it. makes me so mad. The second photo of the guy just sitting there in shock after being extinguished, his face burnt to a crisp, is the most shocking. Poor ****er. sick.
