Time for vigilantes arrived?

I think this sentence sums it up best for me :

"People are fed up with crime and resort to killing to protect their lives and those of their loved ones."

Very sad, but that's reality is South Africa now...

Its sad but if it stops people committing crime then ultimately it serves its purpose. The government are clearly doing nothing.

It's interesting to note what happens when the police and other authorities fail to do their jobs.
In Italy the 'Cosa Nostra' (Mafioso) formed as a direct result of corruption and inefficiency in their police. There are other instances of groups that sprang up too.
We are in a dangerous situation which must be addressed soon.

Don't see any signs of it being addressed though.

"They died slowly, we all stood and laughed.

Sounds sick, but it really reflects the attitude that the criminals have towards their victims. I am all for it. Shoot the bastards.

Ultimately its a zero sum game, their loss is our gain. So take them out.

Yes. I firmly believe this. I challenge anyone to form a cogent argument against it.

Don't worry, they'll try. In a more civilised society there'd be better ways of dealing with it. Unfortunately we no longer live in a civilised society in this country.

That is for sure.

I honestly think if government can't deal with crime they should empower their citizens to deal with it themselves. I'm not talking about vigilantism but if someone is for example breaking into my house and already committing a crime why should I not have the legal right to blow him away? Change the law to allow this kind of action and scrap the ridiculous gun laws that essentially try and prevent people from owning them in the first place and watch how quickly crime drops.

More agreement from my side.

Maybe we need to start a political party.

 

[hj2k_x]

Hehe, could be good. We have one fundamental issue covered already...

Suprised we have not been shot down yet...

 

[Syndyre]

Its a quiet day today... tibby, xtermin8or and Angelo aren't on.

 

[hj2k_x]

Indeed, I await their arrival....

cry the beloved country

 

[supersunbird]

I'd cheer...

 

[Syndyre]

I'd cheer...

Don't think anybody has much sympathy left for criminals anymore. Except the government that is, guess a lot of them know what it feels like to be one.

I wish I could have made your day with some half ar$ed argument but I agree with you guys. Sad but true!
