[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1547428, member: 27490"] Preface: this comes from ABC Fact Check. Farm murders in the Republic of South Africa are not limited to whites. About 15 percent of farm murders include blacks. The Transvaal Agricultural Union which represents farmers has been keeping data. These numbers include blacks and whites: 2001. 50 2002. 72 2003. 48 2004. 49 2005. 37 2006. 35 2007. 47 2008. 53 2009. 45 2010. 43 2011. 32 2012. 39 2013. 42 2014. 40 2015. 38 2016. 49 2017. 58 There has been no statistical increase in farm murders since 2001. The Republic of South Africa has experienced a higher increase in murders in the population as a whole than on farms. The murder rate is one of the highest in the world. However, regardless of the murders, it is likely that at least some farm land will be expropriated.
