BBM - Then OP had the nerve to approach the ANC Womens League Tuesday after his little demonstration and:
"he apologised for what he had done.
He also said he knew that we, as women, had a responsibility towards women. I said yes, because no one had the right to take anybodys life.
He asked that we also take responsibility for people with disabilities. I responded that your disability does not make you run away from facts, but that I wish you strength."

LOL. I thought OP was too sick to plead his case?
OP:"Please Ms Mofokeng, loving your work " aka "don't interfere with my sentencing and parole in the future, just in case Tilly goes easy on me"
From your link- the full extract, as this plea passed me by last week.
During a break in proceedings on Tuesday, Pistorius spoke to the ANC Womens Leagues Jacqui Mofokeng. This was the first time since the start of the trial two years ago he approached members of the league. As he passed the bench where Mofokeng sat in the front row, Pistorius stopped and exchanged a few words with her.
Mofokeng later told the Pretoria News he apologised for what he had done.
He also said he knew that we, as women, had a responsibility towards women. I said yes, because no one had the right to take anybodys life.
He asked that we also take responsibility for people with disabilities. I responded that your disability does not make you run away from facts, but that I wish you strength.
Mofokeng said she shook his extended hand, but that did not change anything for the women who felt he had to go and serve his time in jail.
I was shocked. I have been here from the start and he feels like approaching me today, she added.
