The English Language is Evil



According to some people the English language is evil.  

Sometimes people publish stupid posts on social media.  This post about the English language caught my eye and I wondered what South Africa would be like if English and Afrikaans were abolished. How would investors and visitors communicate with the eleven or so African languages? I am sure people from all over the world would not be interested in learning one of these complex words, I live here and it has never appealed to me to try and learn one of the African languages.  What is the use, I would not be able to use this if I travelled abroad, I could not use this in the workplace and so, in my opinion, would be a waste of time for me. Maybe others do enjoy speak different languages but that remains their choice.


 
The point of these posts is to incite racial tension again.  We all know that there are people in South Africa who will continue to inflame violence, hatred and antagonize the already delicate situation.  Given the fact that there is now freedom for all, it is a group of individuals who are not satisfied to step out of the past and move forward. 

These people hate the English language, yet continue to post their silly remarks using English. I fail to understand the logic.

Johannesburg A place to avoid



Johannesburg city yesterday, a place to avoid. Rioting, burning and vandalizing taking place. There is absolutely no excuse for the behavior of these people.  What do these people want, it seems to be a new past time, every day, there are some destruction, riots, and protests happening.  

The ruling African National Congress (ANC) party don’t seem to take much notice about the wild hooligans romping up and down the streets, causing more damage along the way. Why are these thugs not being arrested, oh I forgot, the police are taking a nap or probably caught up in some grimy crime scene. 
These people have no consideration for the few that want to live in peace.  What about the cost, who will be footing all the repair bills. The taxpayers as usual.

Freedom in South Africa

 South Africa the Free Country for all proudly given to the people by the ruling African National Congress (ANC) party. These pictures depict the freedom in South Africa.  Free to burn down buildings, statues and anything you don’t like. Freedom to steal and free to do whatever you please.


This is democracy in South Africa. Not all blame is placed on the ruling party, of course, other political parties instigate violence, then they do not have the controlling interest. So who is behind all the hooliganism and crime escalating in this free land.
