Some pretty ugly shit in PE

Oscar there has been Armed security and police at fairview

Spot on Craig. Not just racing but company's in general need to take this stand. Utter rubbish that employees feel that if they want something changed they can strike and get what they want.

Surely we have evolved and there are better ways of getting Changes made than taking up arms and having not so peaceful protests. And what makes matters worse is there are workers that do not want to be involved but the fear they have of protestors have them joining in for fear of their lives.

The law needs to take a stand. We are fast turning into a lawless society, into a Somalia. People do what they like and they know they will get away with even crime in your face. There is no law anymore and nobody (ie all the authorities) gives a rat's arse.

Mac I sadly agree with you, country has never been worse, major concern.

Owner of property that was subject of land grab in Ballito alleged that police did not want to intervene when contacted so he had to contact private security company to assist...

There is no police station in Ballito...closest is Umhlali but that is only 5 kms away...

Guys we live in Africa, understand it and try move forward nothing we say or do will change the inevitable.

We cannot paint the whole of Africa in this light!!! Change is inevitable, hopefully for the better. Interestingly today is one year on since the Nigerian school girls was abducted. One year later, still no rescue attempt by the west or the AU. Black lives do matter has well.

Sad reality we have to live with unfortunately. I threw up a couple times yesterday watching what they are doing in these xenophobic attacks, kids that look as young as 12 throwing concrete blocks on guys lying defenceless on the ground, watching people burned alive, really crimes against humanity taking place. This country is unfortunately a ticking time bomb.

we all due respect Naresh, the then Nigerian president said that they have it in hand and that they will sort it. The US did offer. Yes you correct in saying that black lives matter because we are all human no matter what sex, creed, religion or colour.

Lets leave race aside but this is "Africa" not just "South Africa"

Lets consider that the schoolgirls had been abducted from a school in England or France, would the Brits or French expect help from Africa?

I would also have to agree that the poor efforts to get the girls back is shocking and in my opinion would never been allowed to have such a low profile in the States or UK

These atrocities are happening all over Africa on a hourly basis. What is it with our people that life has no value ? We must stop blaming the West and everyone else for our short-comings and start to respect one another's fundamental right to live on earth. How sad have we become that we blame these atrocities on others that have nothing to do with the situation. The law is very clear on these matters, you abide by the law or you are a criminal. No grey area here.

Mugabe our great friend and neighbor has made it very clear that in Zimbabwe those white people that live there must with go or they will be slaughtered ..its on my fb page..now its not about color if we say so, each of us must do what we need to do to survive.
