Zuma goes at Zapiro over cartoon


Wow. What a cartoon. Pure and utter brilliance. Unfortunately, Jacob Zuma has taken offense to it, and has decided to sue Zapiro for publishing it. You can read the article Here.

Now, I may be young, but even I can see that their claims of it being racist and sexist are based on complete garbage. What this cartoon is, is an reasonably accurate representation of what Zuma is doing to South Africa's justice system, and nothing less. Zuma claims that it's portraying blacks as rapists, but I'm sure that if any of the people portrayed in the cartoon had been white Zapiro wouldn't have hesitated with putting them in the cartoon.

Really, if Zuma and the ANC don't want these kind of cartoons coming out, they should get their act together more.
