Bloemfontein - A 15-year-old teenager saved his father from eight armed men who attacked them on their smallholding in Roodewal.
Mark Reynolds, who has a brown belt in karate, told Volksblad that he fought so hard that he broke some of his fingers.
“He is my hero. I would go to war with him,” said Gavin Reynolds of his son.
Mark fought off the eight drunken men almost single-handedly after the group came onto the property and started harassing his father’s workers and their children.
“One of the men came to me and made racist remarks and slapped my dog. He pushed his finger in Mark’s face.
“Then Mark slapped him. The others jumped up and attacked us. Thank God he doesn’t have a black belt otherwise they would be dead.”
‘Moves I’ve never seen before’
Reynolds said the men were drunk and armed with sticks and knives.
The men broke about four sticks on his son’s back and also hit him on the head with a steel pipe, causing a head wound.
When Reynolds ran away, he fell over the dog and the men started throwing rocks at him while he lying on the ground. His son came back with a gun and the men fled.

There's a lot of problems with homesteaders (farmers) being attacked by gangs in South Africa, and whites are often singled out because they tend to be wealthier targets.

While I don't dispute that the perception of whites having more wealth is a motivator, I think being white plays a role as well.

South Africa has always fascinated me from a sociological standpoint....I know a few white South Africans who told me a horrible story about why they fled the country after their neighbours were brutally murdered. Thomas, whats your take on the situation there? Is it getting better or worse there in general and especially when white hatred is concerned?

Me and my dad should have moved there. I remember as a teen us just sitting on the porch with guns waiting for someone to fuck with us or some shit to happen. We waited for what seemed to be forever.

Nah, thugs in South Africa aren't racist, they'll happily murder and maim you no matter what your skin colour.
