A fictionalized version of a real event.
Someone sat at our table made a point of being from South Africa and people thinking he was Australian or British.
He was happy to immigrate LAWfully to America and was proud to be an American despite the politics--"which I won't get into." He said.
Oh, oh. He wants to talk politics and he kept steering things that way. Guns, etc.
I tried three times to give him a way out...changing the subject to other famous South Africans. 1/2
One was an actor and the other a famous yacht racer who overcame apartheid and racism.
As you can expect, he would not be deterred.
As soon as someone else spoke up, I politely excused myself from the table.
I'm thinking, dude...this isn't Facebook, collect your flag waving and gun stroking likes there.
