Johannesburg - ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema's singing of the words "shoot the boer" amounted to hate speech, Judge Collin Lamont ruled in the South Gauteng High Court on Monday.
"The singing of the song by Malema constituted hate speech," said Lamont.
The words undermined the dignity of people and were discriminatory and harmful.
"No justification exist allowing the words to be sung... the words were in any event not sung on a justifiable occasion."
Lamont said it was not relevant whether the words were not exposed to some people of society.
"If it is exposed to a portion of society then it is relevant."
I really like reading a post that will make men and women think.
