Black and White are getting along real nice in South Africa. The media tends to go overboard when reporting on the crime in South Africa and blame everything on racism. As for the crime, there is no single satisfactory answer to this question, but rather a number of explanations which help to explain the high levels of crime plaguing the country.
Here are a few "explanations":
1. The violent past (history) of SA.
2. Transition from Apartheid to freedom.
3. A violent culture.
4. Proliferation of firearms.
5. Organised crime syndicates.
6. Youthful population.
7. Rapid urbanisation.
8. A weak criminal justice system.
9. Substance Abuse
