 R.I.P not just South Africa, but that whole world. He inspired many great activists like Ghandi, MLKJ, etc. Respect.  :peace:

Rest In Peace Nelson Mandela.  I hope to leave at least a fraction of impact on others' lives as he did.

Well, I hope he does get some rest in peace in HELL, cause after all he was a COMMUNIST long before he was anyone's "martyr"!!!!!!!!!!!  He and his lovely, first wife, tortured many people, physically, mentally and any other way possible.  Don't let the MSM fool you - this guy was no saint!!!

We watched his story on PBS last night and were amazed at his strength of character.

I recall when they reported on the news that Nelson Mandela had been released from prison after 27 years.  My prayers and sympathy goes out to his family. He was a great man and very much respected.  He lived to be 95, and he lived a very wonderful life. :heart: :heart: :heart: :male: :thumbsup:

He was a great man and had some great values and wisdom that are "passing away" with other members of his generation as the pass on

Can't even fathom spending 27 years because you protest the way your government is run.  :(

And he didn't come out of prison a very bitter man - which is a testament to his character.  :notworthy:
