Inside the angry xenophobic mob

And that my dear friends, is desperation manifested.

If you have nothing to lose, why be afraid?

I always knew that the zombie apocalypse would be a horde of poor desperate people.....and there are so many of them.

Had the same thought.

In fact, a desperate person is far worse than a walker

These Zulus must go home to KZN. This is our province. They don't belong in Gauteng. We don't need them here taking our jobs and practising crime here.

Start with the fat one in the Union Buildings.

The king has spoken. He is the mouth that tells no lies. His wishes must be fulfilled!

Anyone that makes such statements is a bloody moron.

He needs to send all my taxpayer money back from Nkandla first.

What these foreigners often bring is a willingness to work hard and make themselves useful. What they have is a work ethic, as opposed to the locals who expected everything handed to them for minimal effort.

You forget how much crime is committed by foreign nationals, mostly the illegal ones I presume, since they have nothing to lose and the consequences of getting caught are neigh (a trip back to home country, and free entry back to SA again).

 

[reactor_sa]

How do you know who has 'proper papers' and who doesn't? Using blanket generalisations?

Department of home affairs should be able to verify papers. What's the generalisation?

They don't just deport them for a crime. They serve a sentence first, and then deport them.

I think you will be surprised by the actual results.

The majority of crime in this country is committed by locals.

Oh yay, another person with reliable 'facts'. Ok well maybe in your area but not the case in mine.

Do you have facts to back up your claim then?

Lol. You think the consequences for a foreigner committing a crime in SA is simply deportation? If convicted they would have to serve a sentence before being deported. Anyway, even if some foreigners commit crimes here not all do and those who have jobs and businesses probably don't and those are the ones that our fellow country men are attacking and killing.

Not officially since they don't get published like that. But from what local saps say, that's what I got.

And yet we hear the refrain "back in apartheid days crime was rife in the townships and little in the previously white areas, its not increasing in the country, it has just spread to the previously white areas, so deal with it"

And as we know the borders were much more secure in the apartheid days to keep the "terrorists" out, thus there was not a lot of foreigners, so who was doing the crime back then and why do they not do it now?

That "all foreigners must go back and come back with proper papers". The ones here legally already have the proper papers.

 

[ToxicBunny]

That "all" foreigners must go back and come back with proper papers. The ones here legally already have the proper papers.

Precisely, and there are actually quite a lot of them that are here and completely above board. Hell my gardener is a Zim guy, who has moved here.. has started the process of getting SA Citizenship and all that... he never wants to go back to Zim ever again.

and that why we need a broad middle class..., that have enough as to keep anarchy at bay.....as the poor have nothing to lose...and that middle class must be dominated by a majority of black South Africans.

 

[Sneeky]

Hau, these pesky numbers again.

Plenty of them are here to beg, sell drugs, steal or "car guard" etc. Those ones can fekk off.

 

[Seriously]

Plenty of them are here to beg, sell drugs, steal or "car guard" etc. Those ones can fekk off.

Plenty of them are not foreigners at all but just locals. Again it's so easy to blame someone else for their failures.
