Mandela's legacy in a nutshell

There's a lot more I could add, but I'll wait for another day. This is in a response to a posting after an idiot tried his hand in (mis)informing us.

G-man:

Quite right. And just to correct the above, Mandela's first speech called for 'the armed struggle to continue'. Immediately after that, the country was lit and SA endures THIS legacy ever since. Only on the murder of Chris Hani did Mandela repent and call for peace. Right up until then he was saber rattling, fist waving, rabble-rousing and ginning up the crowds with the best of them. He was a man without any clear direction once the burning was done. His legacy is a twisted one and quite contrary to popular belief.
