“Dis bloed, dis mensebloed!
Dis die lewensbloed wat hierdie oord
Se bossie-wortels voed!”
Dis die lewensbloed wat hierdie oord
Se bossie-wortels voed!”

The Bloukrans Monument |
16th of February 2017
For those who do not know the history, here is a start:
The Bloukrans (Weenen) massacre of 16/17 February 2017
On the side of the Voortrekkers, 41 men, 56 women and 185 children as well as about 250 coloured and Sotho workers were killed.
Let it be a lesson for all eternity. In South Africa, as long as you have these bastards around you will never be able to relax, never be able to sleep properly.
Stuff reconciliation. It is time to take a Second Vow. Onthou Bloukrans. Onthou Bloedrivier. Onthou die Kerkstraat bom.
