As a fan of demythification, I must it is more complicated than that.
Yah uh he was a pretty shadey guy...
Like target policemen, start terrorist oganizations, cover up your wives murders, make big bank off politics kind if shadey.

Great respect. Perhaps the greatest leader living until today and someone who was very inspiring. Much respect. It's very sad news. _________________ -Ryan

Sometimes the myth is more necessary than the man. Whatever his motivations (and I'm convinced they were virtually all good) and actions, the idea of Nelson Mandela was just as, if not more important than Nelson Mandela himself. He was an image and an idea in human form that people across both races could get behind, and his influence cannot be understated. While I'm sure he was probably capable of some pretty questionable things (nobody who obtains and maintains that level of power and influence is completely innocent), the good far outweighs the bad.
Anyway, RIP to a great man who achieved great things. He belongs to everyone.
