Whites leaving SA in droves

[Merlin]

So Johan, would you like to be the one to tell Obama and his "African-American" friends in the States that he should pack up and come Home?

No. I would never tell anyone what to do.

I guess I am saying that it does not help to try and change things. Much easier to get out.

And... YES.... I will be running away. So what. I think of me and my family and that is it.

Life is about playing the odds to get out in the best possible scenario on the other side. Odds are that SA will crash in the next 10 years. Odds are that Australia will still be Australia.

I have a choice. I need to do the logical thing.

If things turn around, I come back if I feel like it. If they go bad again, I run off again.
We live in a country called EARTH.

exactly how did you come up with said "odds"?

BTW don't come back ktnxbai

Take a chill pill, Johan.

I never attacked you - I commented on the your statement that everybody has a place.

The rest is irrelevant.

Good luck with your move - I wouldn't raise a family here either.

confused!?... I did not feel that you where attacking me.
Thanks, but I am not planning to move. I wish I could.

By reading the news and by seeing how the ANC supports a criminal.
If I could go, I would never come back. That would be the most stupid thing that anyone could ever do.

Do you dislike people leaving perhaps? Why? How does it affect you? Perhaps you are blinded by your love for boerewors or you do not have the choice.?
Perhaps you like the challenge of fighting against the odds?

...but most probably you do not have children yet.

Back in the day when I thought life is about not slipping on the dance floor, I also thought SA is the place to be. That was after I even toured Spain and France. I now know that I had tunnel vision.

Make no mistake... life is good here in SA. The odds are it will suck for my boy.

Life is not good when you:

- cant walk around in your local town, suburb, or city center at night - and find reasons why it can't be done in the day either.

-can't rely on the police force to protect you, your property, and your possessions.

-have been forced to build high walls around your home, like a prison - in order to 'try' and feel safer.

-cant travel freely across your country without (justifiable) fear.

If you're sitting in a high walled home, surrounded by 'stuff' you bought, and unable to go where you want, whenever you want - and are still pretending that you have a life - I feel sorry for you.

is sitting playing computer games and telling yourself 'you didn't really want to go out' what you have to look forward to, until you die of old age - or are brutally murdered?

That isn't a 'life' - its delusion in a domestic prison.

Thanks - my dad's visit here almost had me thinking about going back to the states for a while. However, by your definition my life isnt good here . . . its frikkin' fantastic.

Was thinking pretty much the same.. reminds me, does being reckless(in terms of security) differ elsewhere in the world?

Where do you stay in PE bwana? The crime seems to be getting worse where we are but it always differs by area.

Now that I've seen P.E I realize you are in fact not a dilly naive foreigner here to enjoy the 'African utopia' but it is in fact a nice place

 

[DeadCore]

i am thinking of moving to Australia where there is no capped internet,no Zuma,no Mbeki and def NO!! Mugabe

I dunno - I've never been one for taking unnecessary risks regardless of where I live.

Apparently (and I only recently bothered asking) we live on the Wildside - definitely not the wildside Lou Reed sung about though.

I keep telling them to change the motto to PE . . . it's really not that bad.

I'm pleased they haven't changed the name yet.

We do not want to. Jan van Riebeeck should not have come to this continent in the first place.

I believe he wasn't given much of a choice...
