That's true in the US, too. So what?
So you applaud a group who has made their country vastly more violent for the very people they were set up to champion?
Frankly I am not that bothered for the welfare of Most white south Africans - they can leave and go to Australia, South America or (in the case of those with Grandparents from the UK/Ireland) go to Ireland or the UK and start anew. White South Africans have a temperament suitable for low level management such as restaurant or shop management, generally have a hard working attitide and often come with bookkeeping skills (basic accountancy is taught at Highschool level).
I am bothered about the Colored (South African for 'mixed race') population who were discriminated against under apartheid and are now discriminated against by the ANC (for being too white) and the majority black population for whom their shacks in The townships are as bad as ever coupled with endemic violent crime.
Some may call them junk, I call them treasures.
