Bono’s deadly words

WHAT was Bono thinking with his misplaced statements about the “struggle” song “Kill the Boer, kill the farmer”? He doesn’t know the first thing about the way that song has been used in the past few years, or the 3,000 farm murders in South Africa.

Google “farm murders in South Africa” and try to understand why South Africans are horrified by what he said. Better (or worse), try Google Images.

His words were dangerous and irresponsible.
