As suggested by one reader, the British Government should now seize the GPs property here and use it to compensate the evicted farmer.

sp1814 - //Just to state my own opinion in this swarm of agenda-pushing...this land reclamation process is utterly unjust. It's pure racism dressed up as compensation and was introduced to enhance Mugabe's popularity. //

I entirely agree - and to return to my original point - to do the same here in a 'tit for tat' response would be equally unjustified and sweep the moral high ground from under the feat of Mr Cameron in one stroke.
//under the feat of Mr Cameron //

was that a typo, or a conscious play on words?

:-)
It was a typo - I'm not that clever at this time of the day ... or indeed any time of the day!!! LOL!
AOG, your post at 15.01 is confusing. You refer to South Africa which is a totally different country to the one your link is referring to - Zimbabwe.

/// "One of your own". ///

/// Oooh...you really ought to have thought that one through. ///

Doesn't "one of your own" refer to one of one's fellow groups be them black, white, Indian, Chinese. English, Scottish or Welsh etc?

Or is this one more expression that the PC brigade as labelled Racist?

It may do - but why would you want to side with someone - or indeed against someone - simply on the basis of the colour of their skin?

I believe that would be the very definition of racism.
AOG

It might for someone whose world view is divided exclusively along race lines.

Others might think of 'one of our own' as a reference to nationality or cultural sensibilities.

Tell me - what cultural links do you have with a white African farmer?

And do you similarly consider all white people as being 'one of your own'?

For instance Bjork, Jacques Chirac, Debbie Reynolds?

And what happens with your world view when you throw biracial people in the mix. Do Barack Obama, Halle Berry and Craig Charles make you foam with confusion?

Are you able to have fractions in the whole 'one of our own' thing?

Perhaps you should target your thoughts towards The Black Police Association, The Black Lawyers Association, The Black Music Awards, etc, etc?

AOG

Unfortunately they're not here to provide an answer to that question, so perhaps you could, seeing as the question was directed at you.

I'm hoping your answer will be above the level of, "Well if they can do it, so can I".

Because that will force me to use that over-used parental response of, "If they jumped off a bridge, would you?!!"

And no doubt after this little exchange, someone will storm off in a huff, slam their bedroom door and play Megadeath's new album at full blast for the rest of the evening.

We've all been there.

They belong to my same group, so yes.

I also consider all Males as being 'one of my own'?

As would all Homosexuals consider themselves as being 'one of their own'?

Or do we have a little homophobia now entering into the argument?

/// And what happens with your world view when you throw biracial people in the mix. Do Barack Obama, Halle Berry and Craig Charles make you foam with confusion? ///

Not in the least, they are in their own group.

Don't you consider all Black people as being 'one of your own'?

I also consider all Males as being 'one of my own'?



Bizarre!
I don't consider all white men to be 'my own'. Not the Nazis, the paedophiles, the murderers, the fraudsters, the white supremists. I don't identify with them at all.
Some of these discussions become really silly .....

.... Just an observation.
Why would a "British" doctor want a farm in Africa ? Has he got yet another business going to the wall.
// the British Government should now seize the GPs property here and use it to compensate the evicted farmer. //

yeah - - -no
why not nuke the farm in africa so no one can own it and.....
gas all the people in the property here ?
which will save the costs of sale

In fact - produce from the seized farm ( without compensation I imagine ) WOULD be seizable if ever imported to the UK - Rose Mary case I think

and yes AOG this is really a side show
almost all the farms have already been seized ( in case you hadnt noticed ) and the white families - max 250 000 are down to the last 3000

as for rule of law in Zim, hahahaha
// Some of these discussions become really silly ..... // Ny

.... they start off with howling non sequiturs - to stimulate debate apparently and never rise above gormlessness - just another observation
No to all your questions AOG.

I consider 'one of my own' limited to my family.

And as my family includes both gay, straight, black and white - I feel very comfortable with my position.
Well said PP.

It's always better to challenge points of view with arguments to the contrary - otherwise this site would have to change its URL to:

www.onlymyopinionisvalid.co.uk

Hmmm...now that I say that, I wonder if that's already taken.
I have an observation too.

andy_hughes was criticised for making a sweeping generalisation about stories last week...from someone who regularly makes sweeping generalisations about Muslims.

I smiled at that one.
Guh...!

For 'stories' read 'Tories'.
