Brett Murray is sick!

A very controversial painting by Brett Murray has the nation up in arms, who knew an exposed penis could create such uproar.  Brett Murray in his creative genius decided to paint our president with his “mshini” exposed!  

“This man has some nerve” I thought to myself in utter shock.  The painting is majorly distasteful and disrespectful and it has caused nothing short of chaos, Gwede Mantashe even went as far as saying the work of “art” is racist to which I strongly disagree.  The painting is by no means racist, black people need to understand what being “racist” means and stop using it as an excuse in disagreements. 

The president must focus on his job, it was not his real mshini on the painting anyway.  As for Brett Murray, he is a sick man!  What sane person envisions someone else’s genitals and actually builds enough interest to paint them?  Who even thinks of the presidents genitals?

Fellow South Africans, no one has the right to paint anyone in that light (excuse the pun), each of us has the right to do as we wish with our image but we have no right to do as we wish with another person’s image.
