South African AMG Breakfast Run

So we finally got around to doing a mini breakfast run to get things going here in SA.
Was extremely short notice (decided on Friday, happened on Sunday). Was absolutely awesome and no doubt we will have it more frequently in the future!
Here is a few cell phone pics, will upload the proper pics soon:

Starting off with an extremely cold winters morning in Johannesburg:


Lovely sunrise pics:

We are hoping the next 1 will be much bigger and better. We decided to do it once a month at different locations

Great pics!


South Africa ain't all that bad, it has it's good areas and f*cked up areas just like any other country. We are actually the 4th largest market for AMG cars, worldwide.


We fly the AMG flag very high and very proudly over here.

Yep, that's cold enough. I thought you might say something more like 10* C.

Oh wow, I didn't know that. Will definitely speak to them before the next 1.

Hahaha ok our winters are nowhere near that cold!

This is not the right place to talk about negroids, yes I know, obviously not. I guess Im just a patriot for a lost country but the truth has to be told of a stolen country and those who have been unjustly branded opressors and tyrants

SA have become a very treacherous place since the so called "democracy" Now everyone is free, no more law and order, now it is the african way - survival of the strongest. But hey, I am not complaining, thats the basic rule of nature. If you get AIDS you die if your body cannot kill the virus. . .

If a negroid/s gets you and you are inferior in size and strength or numbers you die. I guess thats the price you pay for being a brave European and living in Africa. Luckily its so easy and cheap and hassle free to leave your country of birth and relocate back to civilization with a destroyed currency, start over, re learn everything.

The country my ancestors have created and developed over hundreds of years have been destroyed in 20 years of "democracy". It is now a 3rd world chatiry state.

No need telling me we opressed the poor blacks because it was not so, they had their own home lands where they could develop but they are incapable of developing on their own. Does anyone think it was easy for us leaving Europe hundreds of years ago with primitive ships and technology, arriving in a foreign land where there was nothing - not even blacks, no people to help us, no shelter, no technology, no infrastructure, no currency, full of dangerous wild animals, mosquitos carrying malaria etc.

If we could create and develop a country and progress, why could the negroids not? No one stopped them! We just didn't want to give away what we created and developed and I am certain neither would you!!!

Only if you live here you can understand what it is like living with a destructive paracitic race. SA is the only country in the world where the majority enforce affirmative action on the minority.

Yeah I know its off topic, I just got carried away, I guess its a sore point for me losing the fatherland and my kind to the negroids.

Anyway . . .

You read the truth about South Africa and what people of European descent (the creators and developers of SA) have to go through everyday and watch their country slowly being turned into a primitive 3rd world circus by the corrupt incompetent self enriching ruling majority reducing everyone's quality of life. . .

No offence ok - I am not fighting with anyone here, I am a teller of the truth, it sickens me that our country was stolen and everyone thinks justice prevailed

The country was not stolen, it was a change of regime by the legitimate populace of the the country in a democratic way. Yes, there was a lot of voter fraud, but considering the ratio is about 80m to 5m, even if there was no vote fraud, there was no way in hell anyone other than the ANC was going to win.

That said, the people are idiots for continuously voting the idiots in.

And technically, it was the Europeans who stole and colonized the country from the indigenous population.

And no, I am not one of those individuals you referred to derogatorily.
