Townships tense after xenophobic attacks

Well does killing people, evicted them from houses, stealing and looting solve the problem. Does saying that work is hard to find justify their actions? I don't think so...

To quote the black eyed peas:
"What ever happened to the values of humanity?
What ever happened to the fairness and equality...."

No.
This just goes to show how shallow the layer of violence is in our country, thats all. And my question is: What will the next outburst be? Attacks on affluent neighbors? Shopping centres? SARS? (LOL that was just for fun hey!)
 
Well yea, we employed a Malawian gentlemen in our garden for a while, and he worked his socks off - honestly he was prepared to go the extra mile. As for his South African counterparts - same pay practically half the work and no enthusiasm...

Makes you think. What would you rather do?

Agreed, the same applies abroad, I know a lot of people living in the UK work alot harder than their Brit native counterparts. The locals get upset, yobs stab ex-pats in the eye with box cutters and suddenly the news is all over the xenophobic craze. Truth is, if you're a foreigner working in whatever country there will always be idiots who think you're there for wrong reasons.
 
I just saw on SABC the size of these mobs. Insane stuff... lets hope this doesnt go all Rwanda like. I didnt expect mobs that huge.

Its kinda weird that they are being targeted over the white people :/ Strange

Great. those zim imegrants should know whats coming to them if they decide to shack up here.

Just because our borders are open don't mean we want you here..or atleast, those living in the shacks don't want you here.

Violence on illegal aliens means less violence on us. Good Job guys, "ama ichase away"

And when they come for you ?

Mobs aren't too logical. I would hesitate to ever agree with mob mentality, it does not mean that the focus is off "us" it means that "we" are next

No doubt you are one of those people with an exit plan to Oz or the Uk ?
How would you feel if you received the same reception ?
 
True.

Scary stuff. :eek:

Mob mentality has no thought process. Why do people think they pillage and loot? :confused:

Could very well be white people next. :(
 
The more immigrants arrive the worse it will get. Living with 1 person you don't like out of a 10000 is ok, living with 1000 out of 10000 is another story.
