That's called a racist assumption.

Added to that, many people don't live there out of choice. Its out of necessity, its the best they can do.

What exactly is racist about this, except your own assumption? Do you think only one colour lives like this? If you do, you need to open your eyes.

And no, agreed it's not by choice. Let me explain ...

Absolutely not. These communities are not like your suburb where you don't know your neighbors.

The neighbors would know exactly what was going on.

This is correct. This also affects the children, the next generation ....

They could still be innocent in the sense that reporting shortens your life expectancy by a huge margin. But yes some are complicit. Zama zamas however tend to terrorise their local communities.

What we're seeing is the perfect communist system where folks are beholden to the state under the ANC, yet the state is not protecting them. In turn the state law enforcement, the cops, are failing miserably, either due to corruption or incompetence. So even reporting this will probably see retaliation. The ANC is happy to kow-tow to the likes of the EFF to not give them ammo, while many members of SAPS are probably EFF. Anybody thinking there is not some cash flow from the zama zamas to other greedy hands in power, needs a lobotomy.

We have all the ingredients of happy communistic serfdom leading to the South Africa of today and situations like this.

So no, that's not a racist assumption, it's a realist observation.

Not understanding why those kids are dead does not help. Calling somebody racist with no basis neither.

Who is "my community", "my tribe"? It's the community I live in. It has no racial connotation. The last racist was an Indian SAPS captain that accused me of being a racist for for taking his son to task for doing burnouts in front of my gate. After statements from the neighbourhood, also some witnesses, it turned out the captain was the racist. The other neighbours includes all ethnicity. At times we have patrolled the area together. November/Decemeber is approaching again.

Much like that one black community taking back their neighbourhood (and not the only one) ...

... vs Diepsloot looking continuously at the ANC leaders for solution, high hopes, lots of broken promises later repeating their hope again - while children and anybody else dies.

Mentioning this is realistic, not racist.

Not only would that not be a perfect system it wouldn't even be communist.

So self-rule is coming and the ANC are going to relinquish power?

I wonder why Zim's are here mining gold illegally. Illegal mining is legal in Zim. They even have access to legit explosives there with companies advertising near the camps.
 
Just throw them on the back of a truck. How hard can it be.
