Mandela was like many in history good and bad. He was head of the ANC in the 1960,s their method of despatching opponents was to tie their hands behind their back put two car tyres around their neck douse them in petrol and burn them alive. In later life Mandela choose peace and reconciliation and led to the birth of the nation as it is today. I have no problem with the statue of Mandela in London I am just pointing out when you go back in history few are perfect. Marx led to the deaths of hundreds of millions in Eastern Europe with the purges and repression again good and bad again I have no issues with his statue. But we cant be selective we either accept history or take down all statues and relics from the past. A modern day Khmer Rouge

So you have no proof Mandela burned people to death and now Marx led to the death of hundreds of millions in eastern Europe (no longer Soviets?) while he was an economy theorist without leading any country. Looks like you are talking off your ass, should I say again? You can always try to pull down their statues, go for it and good luck with that.

The ANC burned many people to death in a practice known as necklacing, while Mandela was leader of the ANC thats a historical fact.

Doesnt mean he did it, this is quite common in Africa and nobody said he did it himself, we dont even know he condoned it, big difference with slave traders who were profiteering from it themselves. All white people then condoned slavery, nobody said they should all have been hanged. So your example is crap but as I said, you can always try to pull his statue down. And have you checked about Karl Marx, what did he do?

He did not personally burn them to death no but his henchmen did if we are using that logic Hitler did not kill any jews in WW2. As for Karl Marx statues are normally for the good to humanity hard to see what good came of the era of Lenin, Stalin and the soviet era based on Marx theories

It's amazing what years of oppression can push people to do to their fellow man..What's your excuse?

You might not be so enuthusiatic of necklacing were you the one doused in petrol your hands tied and two tyres around your body. It's an extremely painful and slow way to die. And almost everyone who suffered it was black but the wrong kind of black, bad black people. Saint Mandelas wife was no angel either involved in murdering a young black youth
