On the National Mall. The vigil is starting.
We’re here to remember them.
Attie Potgieter… stabbed 151 times. His wife Wilna, and their two-year-old, Wilmien, murdered with him.
John and Bina Cross… boiling water poured down his throat before they shot them both.
Sue Howarth… tortured for hours with a blowtorch. She died. Her husband lived.
Christo and Christa Morrison… he was
stabbed with sheep shears. She was shocked until she transferred the money, then they slit her throat.
Alice Lotter, 76, and her daughter Helen… tortured to death on their farm.
Those are a few. There are thousands of names in this grass. Farmers. Workers. Children.
Tell me again this is just petty crime.
