EFFHateSpeechFinding: FF+ not happy with SAHRC findings

Durban - The Freedom Front Plus said it is disappointed by the Human Rights Commission ruling that various statements made between 2016 and 2018 by the EFF leader, Julius Malema, do not amount to hate speech.

The HRC found that even though many of Malema's statements sound like hate speech, they do not legally qualify as hate speech. The FF Plus said it will review the HRC's finding and will then decide whether or not to appeal the ruling. On the complaint about Indians mistreating black people in KwaZulu Natal. the HRC said "Objective assessment shows that Mr Malema was calling for the proper treatment of black people by Indians" and that the statement is not hurtful.

A few years ago, the party appealed the HRC's initial finding that the slogan “kill the boer, kill the farmer” is not hate speech. The appeal was maintained and the HRC then ruled that the slogan is indeed hate speech.

Disgraceful double standards .... what you expect though

It's not about how they feel, it's about the constitution 💯

Well, surprisingly happiness with the finding appears to be limited to EFF minded people.

Ba tlaipona

We are not happy with them owning our land.

To get 'equality'-Results, our(judiciary)-panels, need-Equal'DEMO(s)graphics .

Any party is never happy about the findings of another party. Who cares anymore? Do these politician fools really think we're all stupid? Get with it and just start doing your fucking jobs. Stop with this bullshit and do what is right for progress and development.
