Lunatic Works For Cape Mental Health

It's a diversity thing probably. For a mental health organisation to be truly representative it must have raving loonies working there. Godfrey Luyt is one such. He is a "training officer" (what does one loony teach other loonies to do?) and, according to a CMH profile on the net, he is a black male.

Like many crazy people he craves attention. When he took up with a boyfriend in 2004, it wasn't long before he ran to the press, the gullible Cape Times, who will publish anything said by a person of colour, the more insane the better. So the following heartrending piece was written (by a lunatic coloured woman) and then loyally taken up by IOL:

Cape Town's reputation as the gay capital of South Africa is being seriously questioned by a gay couple who recently began a relationship and have encountered nothing but public hostility in the city.

They say they have encountered sneers, jeers and screams of disgust. They have even been spat at and stoned.

Godfrey Luyt and Marcellino Jonas, who have been seeing each other for just three weeks, say that like anyone enjoying a blossoming romance, they would like to show affection in public without being scorned. The two feel their love should be given the same opportunity as heterosexual couples.

Luyt said that when they walked in the street holding hands they would like to do so without someone passing a rude remark and calling them derogatory names such as "moffies" or "bunnies", or having the Bible quoted at them and being told they were going to hell.......

A letter to the Cape Times recently, also dutifully used by IOL, proved that Godfrey Luyt is still a loony and, despite being a training officer, has learned nothing. To see the full flower of this man's insanity go HERE.

This is the part we really like:

"We were taught distorted and erased truths about African civilisation.

We heard about Alexander Graham Bell's invention of the telephone, but have you heard of the man behind the drafting of the instrument?

For those whites who do not, or prefer not, to know, he was Lewis Howard Latimer (1731-1806). He was that (black/African) man who drafted the drawings of the very telephone we are using today.

He was also "an expert witness to patent the litigation of electric lights" for Thomas Edison.

Al Jazari (Arab, 1206 AD) invented the crankshaft and some of the first mechanical clocks.

What about Frederick McKinley Jones (1892-1961) who invented refrigeration?

The portable X-ray machine, which was patented by others, was also his invention.

His portable air conditioner was used by the US government during World War 2.

Why weren't we taught about these African inventors?"

Uh, Godfrey, you weren't taught about them because they weren't African inventors. A brief visit to that liberal encyclopedia, Wikipedia, will show that Latimer was an American with dark skin, a draftsman in a US patents office. Inventors brought stuff to the office and it was Latimer's job to make a drawing of it.

McKinley, also an American with slave links, invented nothing but adapted fridges for different uses (a mechanic). He did not invent the x-ray or anything else.

We would agree with you that, for blacks, their contribution was nothing short of staggering.

And as for Al Jazari, he was an Arab, not an African (no black blood) and would probably have killed you for implying he was a Bantu or something......

Blacks have never invented a thing, Godfrey, not even counting or the wheel or sanitation or condoms.

Only a crazy person would think they did.
