Apparently on the 13th June 2015 there was a march in London against White Genocide, why was it never reported on by our media?

[TheChair]

Where in the article does it say that the march was against genocide?

[Old_Geezer]

"South Africans marched today, according to the organisers, to make a stand “against crime, racism and inequality” in South Africa."

Would that be genocide of white folk or by white folk ?

[Peter Pedant]

blimey

big march - at least 20 yarpies attending ....

[Booldawg]

Maybe Lenny Henry can get on board with their plight ;-)

[bazwillrun]

tut tut PP...fancy using a term like yarpies....wheres quizmonster and gromit and peter...theyll be on your back soon...once theyve got over being offended !

[wolf63]

What are Yarpies?

[bazwillrun]

you not got any SA mates then I take it wolf ?

[wolf63]

Nope - I know some English people though

[bazwillrun]

Im sure google will throw up something if you really want to know what yarpi's are

[Gromit]

Yarpie: any person who grew up on a farm and is unfamiliar with city life, and hence naive and unsophisticated.

Puzzled as to its relevance in the post.

[Booldawg]

I've heard South Africans referred to as Yarpies before. Thought it was because they say 'Yah' rather than 'Yes'.

[Gromit]

Eh, white genocide?

Have you provided the correct link, it says nothing about that.

// The objective of the new movement, according to the organisers, is to appeal to the South African government to “provide proficient governance and accountability by upholding the South African constitution and legal system in order to promote a globally competitive and growing economy as well as encourage tangible social cohesion for a prosperous and safe South Africa for all who live in it” //

Have they banned full stops in SA?

[Canary42]

Shock horror, something AOG wanted to know about was NOT reported in "our media". How did it happen ? How can we stop it happening again ? Is it a sinister conspiracy ? Will the Prime Minister intervene in this important issue ?

[bazwillrun]

"The name is also occasionally used as a mildly derogative ethnic slur or nickname for (particularly white, rural) South Africans"

shocking, disgraceful,...im totally utterly offended by the use of an ethnic slur on here !!!! it shouldnt be allowed...

[wolf63]

Maybe if we all tried to speak a common language it would help. Using a slang language that only a small percentage of the population understands is idiotic.

[bazwillrun]

in the time it took you to type out all three of your posts you could have typed yarpi into google and had the meaning and time to spare...just saying

With very little research I came across this.

"With very little research I came across this."
So either you linked to the wrong article, or you imagined the wording in the article that you did link to.

[youngmafbog]

So rather than answer the question now you have it on a plate you choose to try and get at AOG. Get a life.

AOG, do you really expect our media to publicise diversity as white genocide?

Absolutely no way the BBC would ever do that, but I also suspect that tying the word diversity into it also almost makes it a taboo discussion.

//sing a slang language that only a small percentage of the population understands is idiotic.//

Ah, the good old name calling because some people are different and not right-on with your ideas.

Surely it is idiotic not to want to expand ones lexicon, even be it slang today which could be fully into the English Language tomorrow?

[Gromit]

Thank you for the new link AOG.

However, your second link bears little resemblance to the story in the first link.

Almost as if they are shoehorning a march that had nothing to do with 'white genocide' onto their site because they are pushing an agenda. Confirmed by their take on other recent news stories.
