Russia gives asylum (and land) to white South African farmers

A delegation of 30 South African farming families has arrived in Russia’s farmbelt Stavropol Region, Rossiya 1 TV reports. The group says it is facing violent attacks and death threats at home.
Up to 15,000 Boers, descendants of Dutch settlers in South Africa, are planning to move to Russia amid rising violence stemming from government plans to expropriate their land, according to the delegation.
“It’s a matter of life and death – there are attacks on us. It’s got to the point where the politicians are stirring up a wave of violence,” Adi Slebus told the media. “The climate here [Stavropol Region] is temperate, and this land is created by God for farming. All this is very attractive.”
Meanwhile, in South Africa, BHO praises the current S. African government that has created these racist policies.

It'd be nice to get those refugees. Educated, civilized, and without 10 kids.

I wonder if one day in the future Russia will do the same for white farmers from the US.

I’ve seen actual people on here argue that white South Africans should not be consjder d victims

Good news for these South Africans. Hopefully they can start anew. Russia seems much safer and more hopeful than South Africa at this point.

And non-Mooslim - which I guess you covered that when you said “civilized.”

That will be the argument directed at white American farmers one day.

These are the sort of immigrants who add to a country and the ones we used to try to attract. FDR brought tons of these kinds of folks here and put serious restrictions on the ones who would not assimilate or add to our country. Kennedy reaffirmed that edict. But Obama fundamentally changed our immigrant program in his attempt to change our culture. And he was successful along with idiots who voted for him. I can understand black people voting for him as a point of pride even though it has hurt them the most, but anyone else had to have serious problems.
This is not new. People have been fleeing for their lives and to keep their business interest intact for the better part of 20 years from S.A. Many came to the big Texas city I lived in and all I knew were hugely successful. Starting businesses and adding to the economy. Rode next to a guy from there flying into Atl the other day who was shopping for a place who to park his small business. He said it was a bad scene. His family he has already sent to Charleston a year ago.

My opinion of the intelligence of Boer farmers has quickly dissapated.There is no part of Russia that is all that temperate and I for one would never want to do business with Russians in Russia

Should they have stayed in South Africa?

Would have be an awesome move for Trump to offer them as well.

No, but I would emigrate to a place that has a rather transparent system of doing business. Russia is overall a kleptocracy. There are payoffs involved over and above official permits necessary and taxation is kind of on a "sliding scale" determined by whim.
If I were them I would emigrate to an English speaking country like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand or a place like Chile

Russia is desperate for immigrants, of a certain color of course. I'm sure that Putin will be opening the borders wide for Americans of European-only ancestry after the 2018 and 2020 elections. Free land, baws. Should be making your reservations now.
