Submit your comment Falcon Security has issued a statement saying it "wishes to apologise unreservedly to Mr Nelson Mandela and the people of South Africa for the damage to his good name that has been caused by the playing of an offensive song at its stand at a family day function at Sun City over the past weekend." Falcon acted swiftly to suspend its manager of operations at Sun City, Warren Alberts, following the incident at the weekend. Falcon CEO Ben Burger said: "Mr Alberts has stated in an affidavit that he was not aware of the contents of the CD, but we have chosen to suspend him whilst we fully investigate this matter and ensure that we get to the bottom of it. "As a company we reject outright any forms of racism, and we will do all in our power to demonstrate our commitment to a just, non-racial and equitable South Africa. Falcon Security will co-operate fully with the South African Police to ensure this ugly incident is never repeated and those who perpetrated it are brought to bear the full might of the law."

I am black & have never in my life experience bad behaviour from a white individual but i have been experiencing a lot from blacks, for one simple reason they look down on other people. Mostly white people in North West speak setswana because they love people irrespective of their colour so do i.

Well done for playing "Bopsfontein" you just had the guts to do what the rest of us would love to do and say. But once again a white traitor will condem you, and say sorry. Stand by what you belive. Well done. All terrorist like mandela should be exposed.

What a load of crap. Come on guys, all of you get over yourselves, two wrongs do not make a right. How can you think that just because you are black you can make the same mistakes that the whites made in the past. Racism is wrong, we can all agree on that, so why then do some people want to continue with that mindset, except now the shoe is on the other foot. Lets move on and make this nation the fantastic place it should be with a peaceful, and tolerant society.

Thato T - You rock! Awesome comment. People like you make me proud to live in this country and give us all hope for the future. If only everyone could have your attitude, and JUST MOVE ON! As for the comment by "Malibo Monrsitsi" - its people like you who will be the ruination of this country if left unchecked. Your comment is tantamount to hate speech, and you should be ashamed of yourself. MOVE ON!!!!!!

What about the hate songs we have, and daily hear from Blacks about Whites right from the very beginning when we were supposed to be a rainbow nation building a new SA? Songs like "kill the settler kill the boer" and statements in newspapers from black youth leaders to go out and steal from whites as it is not a crime to mention just two. Now the hypocritical indignation from blacks. These types of incidents are part of life and a reality, face it and take it like we have to!

@ Malibo - Thank you too for been honest. I must just tell you yes our forefathers did hate your forefathers but that does not mean to say that we (now living) carry that hate with us. It is extemely unfair to punish the innocent for crimes they were not guilty of. Enjoy your day.....

Dont blame an entire group for one arse's behaviour. All whites are not like that. The guy that played the song is an idiot and 95% of whites distance themselves from him and the AWB cadre. Come now, I don't see all black people to be the same as Malema.
