- WallnutBoy, on 07/18/2008, -4/+244Someone paid attention to that Cracked article..
- zippe, on 07/18/2008, -8/+145you dont have to tell us to digg it, geez. that would probably make us digging less likely anyways.
- FOcast, on 07/19/2008, -8/+10621 page article + "Digg this" = no Digg.
- deweyhewson, on 07/19/2008, -18/+100And still on the Terrorist Watch List™!
Hooray for us. - Niubai, on 07/19/2008, -8/+86Nelson Mandela's life is an example to everyone, but an article with a mandatory "DIGG THIS" on the title it's not.
- aksn1p3r, on 07/19/2008, -9/+70We used to get beat in school, he freed our country from apartheid! The good grow old in this case.
- akula89, on 07/19/2008, -1/+56actually, he was removed.
http://www.efluxmedia.com/news_Mandela_Removed_fro ... - Aeric, on 07/19/2008, -0/+30That's what I came here to say.
It is like a comedian starting a joke with "This is funny"
It is for us to decide. - Ransack, on 07/19/2008, -3/+33South Africa is a total mess. Crime is thru the roof with 100,000 murders a year. Blackouts are common. Poverty is as rampant as it ever was. Mandela freed his people, but totally FAILED to help give them a better life.
- eigenweasel, on 07/19/2008, -0/+25Between the power-cuts, the farm murders, the police corruption, the car jackings, the gang rapes, the illegal immigration, the xenophobic attacks, the education crisis and the crumbling infrastructure - you need all the help you can get.
- tian2992, on 07/19/2008, -2/+27Dugg for the great man that Is Nelson Mandela, almost undugg for lame title
- BigE89, on 07/19/2008, -19/+43A true hero. Its because of people like him that I still have hope in this world
- Shizcake1337, on 07/19/2008, -0/+20Was exactly what I thought too.
- Charlatan22, on 07/19/2008, -3/+22Well I guess if you're commanding me to digg it....
- inactive, on 07/19/2008, -3/+22Why is he loved so much? I thought South Africa is in a terrible state right now. (I must of missed the history, since im 18)
- Noiremorte, on 07/19/2008, -0/+18That man does not look 90.
- jockser, on 07/19/2008, -3/+19I intentionally bury every article that has a DIGG THIS written in the title.
- eigenweasel, on 07/19/2008, -6/+21Free Nelson Mandela*
*While stocks last. - JFallon126, on 07/19/2008, -1/+15it was yesterday...
- markperia, on 07/19/2008, -2/+15you know there's something wrong in the world if doing good gets you in the Terrorist Watch List.
- arobicha, on 07/19/2008, -0/+13@SSUK
Where are you from? I'll make a mental note never to go there... I'm pretty happy to say that my home country doesn't have a problem with overt police corruption, excessive car jacking, rampant gang rape, excessive illegal immigration, socially accepted xenophobia, a completely broken education system, OR a crumbling infrastructure... Sure there are small problems with them, but the average joe just shouldn't (and doesn't) have to deal with them...
Unless you live in a third world country, there are people that have it MUCH worse than you do. - clickwir, on 07/19/2008, -5/+17Whoopie. I might have cared if the "Digg this --->" wasn't there. Now, not only do I note care.. .but I'm going to bury it too.
- LittleDas, on 07/19/2008, -6/+17Obnoxious title but I think Nelson Mandela is a good human being so dugg.
- markperia, on 07/19/2008, -0/+11why was he even in the list in the first place?
- TwoKill, on 07/19/2008, -0/+10Not to mention the article was submitted yesterday,
- weswood, on 07/19/2008, -2/+12No, his birthday was yesterday.
- inactive, on 07/19/2008, -4/+14And look how good africa is doing. Good on you Mandela.
- TrevorBelmont, on 07/19/2008, -14/+24Buried for "Digg this"
- sfaiku, on 07/19/2008, -4/+14Yes, he's so compassionate. He's never met a Zimbabwean dictator he doesn't like.
- inactive, on 07/19/2008, -5/+14stfu
- inactive, on 07/19/2008, -2/+11youtube.com/watch?v=NKiePbTcAfY
yay what a hero.. singing about killing Whites
you people are sick.. you honor someone who wants you dead - angusware, on 07/19/2008, -1/+9Correction: Post-Apartheid racism and second class treatment still exists: different color this time.
- ayeroxor, on 07/19/2008, -0/+8President Bush gotz a digg accownt?
- SaladCactusKing, on 07/19/2008, -0/+8He was one of the principal fighters of Apartheid, which is a good thing.Unfortunately, post-Apartheid SA is in an even worse state than pre-Apartheid. Sure, the racism and second class treatment is gone, but the rest of the country is in an even worse state than ever.
For the record, I'm not saying Apartheid was right, it was a travesty. The problem is that the post-apartheid SA government just expected everything to magically get better by stopping it and instead the country is still doing awful. White farmers are getting murdered, AIDS is at an all time high, etc. - dogpigeoncow, on 07/19/2008, -7/+14Days like today make me proud to be South African
- dzw120, on 07/19/2008, -9/+16Inaccurate. Mandela's dead. Saddam killed all the Mandelas.
- Hoofenhoffer, on 07/19/2008, -1/+8i completely agree, Nelson Mandela is a terrorist
- coloneltcb, on 07/19/2008, -8/+15OK Apartheid sucks (sucked). Therefore, Mandella must be exactly the opposite and a great leader in every way?
No. Mandella's biggest legacy in South Africa is how AIDS is widespread because he chose to ignore it, ignore it and ignore it some more, then finally appoint an AIDS czar who refused to believe that there was a link between HIV and AIDS.
Yes, happy birthday *****... - Hoofenhoffer, on 07/19/2008, -2/+8you do know taht mandela is a terrorist who bombed innocent civilians in an attempt to get his message across, is he sorry? Yes, but sorry doesnt repent enough for the taking of an innocent life
- somestranger26, on 07/19/2008, -2/+8I buried it for having "Digg this" in the title, I mean this person even went so far as to add an obnoxious arrow pointing at itself... Otherwise I would've dugg it.
- chubbstar, on 07/19/2008, -2/+8dont forget that his wife invented 'collaring' as a means of volent protest. (its when you put a gasoline soaked tire around someones neck and light it.)
- rocketz, on 07/19/2008, -0/+6for the record, more people get murdered daily in SA now than they did whilst apartheid was in place.... people can die in freedom now.... sounds very noble but sucks in reality
- Hoofenhoffer, on 07/19/2008, -4/+10i guess terrorists do live to see old age
- chops76, on 07/19/2008, -0/+6...then I'll go ahead and bury it.
- dumpyhumpy, on 07/19/2008, -1/+7That was hilarious

Wheres man-dell-la? - uselesstosser, on 07/19/2008, -0/+5For ***** sake, that guardian article is so blinkered and one sided, why don't these dumb asses remember the bit about this Mandela arsehole being a cold blooded terrorist.
we don't celebrate the birthdays of ETA, The Red Brigade, The Barda/Meinhoff, The IRA or Al Qaeda or Timothy McVeigh - vatd112, on 07/19/2008, -0/+5for the record he submitted this story yesterday
- kolop1, on 07/19/2008, -11/+16Who cares?
- inactive, on 07/19/2008, -2/+7Yep, let's celebrate the former terrorist and ex-husband of a mass murderer. Truly, a great humanitarian.
- kilps, on 07/19/2008, -2/+7You are probably thinking of Mbeki - current president. Mandela's organisation does tons of work helping to fight AIDS ... and just not being (too) bitter after spending 27 years in jail makes him a great leader. Get informed
