Perhaps we should recall that one reason we have peace, freedom, and order is that our ancestors, the colonists, decided to exterminate the native population, rather than enslaving it. An expedient solution, certainly; the survivors are too few to rise against us and threaten our security. Worth the price of genocide? Who knows? I suppose it depends on who you ask. Maybe whites in those African countries will simply have to leave, much as they may not want to. Maybe that will end it. Maybe. That won't end it. When the whites are gone, the black will turn upon each other.

Maybe whites in those African countries will simply have to leave, much as they may not want to. Maybe that will end it. Maybe. I wrote something to Steven about that. I believe the figure i read was 20,000 a month (whites and educated blacks) leaving Africa, but I can't substantiate it, and it's so many it seems simply impossible. The emigrants can take very little with them. So a lot of whites, instead of leaving their homes, businesses and other assets behind, simply invest in heavy security, armored cars, guards, and carry guns everywhere, while they gradually sneak out of the country as much as they can each year to provide their children a stake when it's time for their escape. Of course if the seizures do, in fact, begin to include not only farms but businesses, that will create a new surge of urgent emigration by those who were held back by their ownership of businesses.
