Thoughts on August 23, 2018

Comment posted to a Philip DeFranco video on You Tube published on 08/23/2018:

If any South African farmers can prove ownership, they should be paid even if the government has to put the money in an account for said farmers. This deposit along with a date of eviction accompanied by a face to face meeting informing the current owner of that eviction, preferably in a courtroom environment. Proof of ownership could be problematic in situations were there have been several white to white farmland purchases. I believe that apartheid was begun sometime between 1948 - 1950, so interviews with former owners, neighbors of these white farmers, historical records, tax payments, computer searches should be of some assistance. If these farmers can prove ownership that predates apartheid, then they should be exempt from redistribution. The South African government, if only to show fairness, should perform due diligences on these ownership searches. The German government has been returning stolen property (admittedly sometimes reluctantly) for years to survivors of genocide, it is the ethical thing to do.
