You guys are just too obsessed with the General's hat.
I like how you call him the general, as if any political appointee deserves that title when compared to actual cops who have worked their whole lives in the police force and actually earned their rank.

Some of us have been saying this all along and were called afro-pessimists and racists.
We have been walking on eggshells for 25 years ... i guess we can start calling a spade, a spade ?

They are not just discriminating against so called "White People" ... they are discriminating against everyone outside their nepotism circle.

Tender Awards go hand in hand with Brown Envelopes, so the officials awarding them are just as much to blame as the "White monopoly capitalists" who provides the Brown Envelopes...

Redistribution of jobs by taking them from a minority group is not job creation, defining it as such is stupidity.

Stealing 200 million rand from treasury is not an oversight or a mistake... it is considered treason anywhere else in the world.

Keeping hundreds of millions worth of illicit smokes in stock is not charity towards small businesses... it is a crime ... can he present his receipt?

I am not a racist, i do not discriminate and do not believe in the notion that people of banthu decent is intellectually inferior ... if that was the case ... this gravy train would have stopped long ago. But i also believe if you say nothing you are just as guilty as those partaking in the corruption. A spade is a spade ... no matter what color you decide to paint it.

The same ones that cannot march? They will easily be outsmarted by organised rebellion.
My perception is that the intention is to force conflict ... International intervention will not happen if we are the agressors... and i believe that is what they are bargaining on.

I think most of the blunders captured in videos was done intentionally to enforce the idea that there will be little or no resistance.
Take Special Note of Points 19 and 20:

I do believe we need to set up service focused on the collection and validation of incidents related to all relevant incidents and the law enforcement conduct towards the victims and the efforts taken to bring the criminals to justice ... complaining is not helping our situation but numbers and verifiable facts will.

Again I bring it to your attention.
That fcuking zero no longer has the privilege of being referred to as a general.

Misplaced and misguided reverence, admiration and submission to authoritarian leaders is why so many African countries get into a state of abject poverty and ruin.

They think they can "nice" and "grovel" their way toward favour and a better life in some weird and warped mindset of "the more subservient I am the more I shall be rewarded.

This is exactly what those leaders count on to grind your bones into the ground for self enrichment purposes.

Hardly flattering for his Police Farce. Doesnt say much for policing prior to Covid now does it.
I wonder how the number, 200 000+ citizens that have been arrested/fined/charged since covid lockdown, compares with those arrested in the last decade for smuggling smokes and booze?

Police Minister Bheki Cele has said while organised crime syndicates have taken advantage of the lockdown regulations by illegally selling alcohol and cigarettes, the illicit trade existed long before measures were taken to curb the spread of Covid-19.
