De Vos dragging the UCT law faculty through the mud again. Imagine Professors Molteno and Dean sinking to these lows.
To suggest that the song is race neutral is laughable - it cannot be applicable to Ramaphosa for obvious reasons.
To paint Afriforum as an organization of white racists trying to entrench white privilege is a gross misrepresentation.
To pretend that the song constitutes art is as bad as to praise Nazi songs for its musicality. Die Stem is miles ahead in terms of its artistic value.
It is on the same level as Kill the Boer and Daai Stones.
The next farm murder is on you, Vossie. No doubt you will celebrate the death of another racist.

Why is Afriforum threatening to censor a work of art?
Oct 13th, 2014
by Pierre De Vos.
Afriforum, an organisation that fights for the preservation of white privilege, is threatening to go to court to have the song of a Cape Town based hip-hop collective called Dookoom declared hate speech. The song (deploying Afrikaans in all its exquisite richness) is entitled “Larney, jou xxxx”. The threat by Afriforum raises several interesting questions – only some of a legal nature.
