Pieter Willem Botha, was a former president of South Africa.

By
In 1988, he told the World: Black people can not rule themselves because they don't have the brain and mental capacity to govern a society. He went further to say, how the black people hate themselves! He said: "Give them guns, they would kill themselves; Give them power, they will steal all the government money; Give them independence and democracy,they will use it to promote tribalism, ethnicity, bigotry, hatred, killings and wars!"

Xenophobia tells you, how black brain is negatively constructed! Indians are not killing themselves, no matter where they come from; Chinese don't kill each other, no mat...
