POLICE MURDERS - A law enforcement official is killed every four days in South Africa.
POLICE ATTACKS - 712 members have been attacked this year alone - 81% of
them while on duty.
37 cops killed so far this year alone
(as at 3 pm yesterday).
Western Cape has highest reported attacks on members with 274 this year.
Gauteng and Kwazulu-Natal have highest reported murders with ten each.
So for those saying that the police stood by and "did nothing"
during the recent riots in KwaZulu-Natal, please think before you criticize the
honest hard working LEOs who still proudly serve and protect.
Think of their trauma, stress and constant exposure to violence and death.
They spend minimal time with their loved ones before they go to sleep and start
it all over again.
Spare a thought for their families and loved ones who never know if they
will return from their shift.
To everyone insulting the police saying that they stand by and do nothing
during riots and protests, please consider and then answer the following:
Are you aware that since the Marikana
disaster, the ruling party has put the police on a short leash regarding how they may deal with protests / riots? This isbecause opposition
parties are using the Marikana incident to gain votes. Blame the ruling party, not the Police.
Have you ever been involved in a riot control situation or crowd control of
protestors? Have you studied public order policing & law enforcement? Have
you been shot at, or had objects thrown at you during a riot? (This question is
purely for those who are publicly criticizing the way the police handled the
protests this past Monday).
Gang violence is on the rise,
and the government has lost control. Is there any good news stories to tell
about South Africa? Daily gunshots ring
out across the streets in yet another killing.
Drug dealers, corrupt cops and a host of other
criminal activities are rampant in the Port Elizabeth area. Innocent
people are shot in broad daylight while murderers roam free, and nobody says a word. The police admit
that “dirty cops” are a challenge, but what are they doing to resolve this
issue?
These gangs have weapons that will make you cringe, from ak47’s, revolvers, grenades,
shotguns and more. When asked where they get their weapons from, they openly and unashamedly say “the police give us
the weapons.” Well now, if we have
corrupt cops, what hope is there for the country? Watch the video and you will hear the gangsters admit they have
criminal records and cannot buy weapons. In one instance they said the police will
purchase a gun for five hundred rands and resell to the gang leaders for one
thousand five hundred rands.Dirty cops, who have taken an oath to protect the citizens of South Africa,
they should be charged with murder.
It is shocking that innocent people are being killed in cold blood by mafia type gangsters. Gangs
operate all around SouthAfrica, while in
Port Elizabeth gangsterism has
become the controlling factor in poor suburbs. Murder is a daily occurrence, kids as young as five are killed if they are
caught in a crossfire during a shootout. When something like this happens, the
gang leaders do not give a damn, are unrepentant and mutter “he was at the
wrong place at the wrong time.” Although some do admit, they love children,
and it is not their intention to kill children. I
fail to understand how a person who loves children will kill them.
It is all about controlling the turf, collecting money for
drugs and protection, and killing anybody who interferes in the illegal operations
of the gang leaders. Intimidating the people and
filling the young children’s mind with fear and money. These murdering thugs
have money and will use the money to bribe the police. Selling drugs is not the
only source of income, the scoundrels admit they get money from armed
robberies, phone snatching and burning down shops, Gangs sell drugs, dagga,
cocaine, heroin, tik and anything a user might need. Again, these leaders admit
that they get their drugs from “Nigerians” who have infiltrated South Africa
and are a prime cause of crime increasing.
The greedy, corrupt and
disgusting scum of the earth that have not one moral fiber of decency torment
innocent people. There is a high
number of unemployed individuals who
loiter around the streets aimlessly. Again, it is the
unemployment factor why South Africa has no good news stories, and crime is on the rise. The influx of
immigrants “Nigerians” coupled with
unemployment, corrupt cops, and
uneducated hoodlums are the cause of the rampant criminal activities. The
corruption in government spiraling down to public services remains the principal
cause why South Africa does not have a good story to tell.
Read this article about the latest incident, when a 12-year-old
girl was killed by gangsters. It is shocking!
Fourteen days of violent riots, protests and destroying
South Africa. The compilation of the video illustrates how disastrous events between
May 25 and June 8 this year, a total of 14 days is the reality of what is
happening in South Africa. Riots around the country, from Johannesburg to Witbank, and Durban, plus other
isolated incidents show the destruction caused by hooligans running amok. Hundreds
of unemployed, frustrated and intimidated mobs are burning down South Africa, destroying property, looting
shops and more. If this is the damage and destruction done in 14 days what does
the future hold?
A video that the
government and the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABS) do not want
you to see, real events that will not be aired
on television. Recently the state-controlled
television and the African National Congress (ANC) have banned the viewing of
protests on television.The reason,
violence will influence the youngsters in South Africa. It is all a cover up,
the beginning of censorship to intimidate the 40 million ignorant masses who
believe every word the ANC throw up.
Why are the people protesting? It has been 22 years of ANC
democracy and freedom, yet the failure to
meet the growing population’s demands has spiraled out of control. Are the
protestors either intimidated by other political parties or genuinely
frustrated with ruling party. Service deliveries and wrecked infrastructure, no
housing, no food and no work all form part of the frustrations. However, being
unemployed millions will be intimidated to ignite violence and protest for the
sake of a pittance. Are political parties threatened
the masses?
The ANC have done
nothing for the multitudes since coming into power. It has been about the elite,
close friends and family who benefit handsomely,
not the poor people. Is there a future for South Africa under the ANC
government, probably not a bright one? After 22 years, the country has been
turned into a showcase of rioting, criminal activities. A trend that is set to
continue until somebody wakes up and stops the carnage and destruction. Who
will that be, the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and Julius Malema, definitely
not, it would be worse? Malema has made so many promises to the mindless mobs
and will never be able to deliver. Under the ANC South Africa will continue to
burn, under the EFF the country will turn into a warzone of mayhem.
