Council making excuses and seems to suggests it's the property owner's job to get private security to stop trespassing.
We have lost our minds.
A jury convicted Karmelo Anthony of murder for stabbing 17-year-old Austin Metcalf to death. Evidence was presented. Witnesses testified. Self-defense was rejected. He got 35 years.
That’s not a “legal lynching.” That’s justice.
Crying racism because the killer is Black and the victim was White doesn’t change the facts: actions have consequences.
Austin is dead. His family grieves. The system worked.
Stop excusing violence.

Julius Malema is NUMBER 1 on Annexure C the official list of 17 names tied to SAPS Crime Intelligence deputy head Major General Feroz Khan.
The biggest loudmouth screaming “corruption” and “white monopoly” daily… now leading the criminal connections list at the #MadlangaCommission.
Hypocrisy level: MAXIMUM.
The fake revolutionary is finished.
I can’t understand the logic.
We have to endure double digit increases to electricity cost on the one side & then give “free” tax payer funded electricity to MORE indigent households.
So you make the running costs for businesses more expensive so they can’t increase profits to be able to expand & hire more people … so people can’t find jobs which continues to keep people poor & you promise more “free” stuff to continue this death spiral
Kier Starmer has announced Dublin protestors will be immediately dragged through 24 hour fast track (two tier) courts..

🚨 PIC Isibaya Fund Bombshell: R3.6 BILLION in Public Pension Money Wiped Out
The PIC’s “developmental” Isibaya Fund - tasked with BEE and transformation deals - just wrote off investments in multiple companies delivering -100% IRR. Entire capital gone.
Pensioners’ savings funding high-risk empowerment projects with massive impairments. Parliamentary red flags, governance failures, and a pattern of losses stretching back years.
Question: Are BEE policies actually building sustainable black-owned businesses… or destroying value while enriching a few?
South Africa can’t afford feel-good investments at the expense of workers’ retirements.
Time for a hard audit and honest debate on results vs rhetoric.
What do you think? 🇿🇦

The DA told farmers it was their party. Then this happened. 🧵
1/ SA's worst FMD outbreak. All 9 provinces. A national crisis.
A KZN farmer emails the minister — thanking him for vaccines, offering to help coordinate the rollout.
John Steenhuisen's chief of staff Jana le Roux forwards it to the DG and DDG with one line: "for some amusement."
2/ She has no agriculture background. She's a corporate lawyer who followed Steenhuisen from Cape Town city hall into the GNU.
Steenhuisen's response when it went viral? "I requested the person to apologise."
She kept her job.
3/ This is the same ministry that removed veteran FMD expert Dr Danie Odendaal for publicly questioning the vaccine strategy.
Mock the farmers trying to help. Fire the experts trying to fix it.
Then ask for an apology and move on.
This is the DA's "agriculture reset." 🌾
In response to a parliamentary question I asked, SAPS has confirmed facts that should change the entire firearms debate in South Africa.
Government continues to speak about tightening access to firearms for lawful self-defence. But the real crisis is not responsible citizens applying for licences. The real crisis is the growth of illicit firearm pipelines, and the role that weak state control, poor tracing, corruption and institutional failures play in feeding those pipelines.
The reply reveals three major problems.
First, SAPS says all legal firearms are recorded on the Enhanced Firearm Registration System, the EFRS. But when asked how many recovered firearms with legible serial numbers were not recorded on that system, SAPS said those records are “not available.”
Second, SAPS says it has a firearm tracing protocol. That protocol is supposed to identify the firearm, establish ownership, trace the source, determine where control was lost and track the chain of possession. But when asked how many firearms had their full chain of custody successfully established, SAPS admitted that no national statistics have been gathered.
So the tracing protocol exists on paper, but the national tracing picture does not.
Third, SAPS confirmed that 154 recovered firearms were identified as SAPS firearms, and 205 recovered firearms were identified as belonging to private security companies. That is 359 recovered firearms traced back to state or regulated custodians.
In a separate parliamentary reply, SAPS also confirmed that 741 SAPS-owned firearms were lost or stolen in the 2023/24 financial year. Only 170 had been recovered at the time of the reply. That leaves 571 SAPS firearms from that year alone still unaccounted for.
This points to serious weaknesses in the control environment around firearms. It points to leakage from within the very institutions that are supposed to prevent weapons from entering criminal circulation.
They feed organised crime.
If South Africa is serious about tackling violent crime, then we must be serious about cutting off the supply lines that arm violent criminals.
That means:
•Trace every recovered firearm.
•Build a proper national tracing picture.
•Identify where state control failed.
•Investigate every loss properly.
•Prosecute negligent and corrupt custodians.
•Tighten oversight over SAPS armouries and private security firearms.
•Use intelligence-led policing and prosecution-led investigations to dismantle illicit firearm pipelines.
What we should not do is pretend that lawful self-defence applicants are the core problem while the state itself cannot fully account for its own firearms and cannot provide a national picture of tracing outcomes.
South Africa does not need more symbolic restrictions aimed at responsible citizens while organised crime continues to benefit from weak controls and failed accountability.
The priorities must be clear:
Target illicit firearm pipelines.
Protect lawful self-defence.
Hold the system accountable.

Imaginaos esto:
— Tu hija de 12 años fue violada repetidamente por cuatro hombres negros.
— La llevas a la policía y presentas una denuncia.
— Los agentes se niegan a aceptar la denuncia.
— Desesperado, describes lo sucedido en las redes sociales.
— Dos días después, la policía te detiene y te encarcela. Un juez te condena a una pena de prisión incondicional.
— Los agresores quedan impunes.
— En el Parlamento, esta decisión es aprobada por amplia mayoría porque no quieren ser tachados de islamófobos.
Esto ha ocurrido cientos de veces en Gran Bretaña, y la Cámara de los Comunes en Londres votó en consecuencia hace tan solo unos días.
