F.W. DeKlerk, the former South African president who dismantled Apartheid, has called the country’s Affirmative Action system unconstitutional and racist, and said it needs to be altered.
“To say, equal representation must now be implemented in the social world, the cultural world and the business world,” DeKlerk said during an interview. “Tthat is, in my opinion, a total distortion of the Constitution [....] It is, in my opinion, unbalanced and often unconstitutional.”
“Affirmative action must be altered so that it is no longer racist,” DeKlerk concluded.
DeKlerk said Affirmative Action abuses Article 9 (2) of the new South African Constitution, which states: “Equality includes the full and equal enjoyment of all rights and freedoms. To promote the achievement of equality, legislative and other measures designed to protect or advance persons, or categories of persons, disadvantaged by unfair discrimination may be taken.”
The best way to empower previously disadvantaged people is through “good service delivery” of proper housing, education, and municipal services.
DeKlerk also also said it was “absolutely ridiculous” that affirmative action be applied to cultural organisations such as the Afrikaans Christian Women’s Movement or Afrikaans newspapers.

What did you think these criminal communist bastards were going to do when you handed the country to them? Abide by constitution, law and sensible practices?
But then again you are a lawyer by occupation, aren’t you? And we all know honest lawyers are as common as rocking horse droppings.
He expected to get Winnie’s wig for his bald head!
Well Mr. F.W. De Cluck it appears that the seeds that you and the morons from the United States have sown are now being harvested, namely the end of “apartheid”.
Now you cry and lament about affirmative action being “unconstitutional and racist”.
You are a fool, and that must be what the initial F in your name stands for.
However the paradise of “integration” just doesn’t seem to be working out the way you were told by the birdbrains of the Marxist left.
You cry about affirmative action and ignore the murders and the high crime rate,
You continue to espouse a false doctrine that has been the mantra in the United States since the 1960’s “The best way to empower previously disadvantaged people is through “good service delivery” of proper housing, education, and municipal services”. It doesn’t work stupid, just look at what happened the housing market in America by giving “proper housing”.
The fact is South Africa’s future is all used up, thanks to dimwitted clucks like you.
FW: you should have known. If you want to do something, support groups that oppose farm murders – oh, i forget, probably too bloody for your clean little hands …
