I'm just curios, we have the HIGEST crime in the world, with a population of about 40million vs the 300million of the USA...yet with more crime! With corruption and no law and order, the innocent people must just swallow the bitter pill and carry on, trying to make a decent living, dodging hi-jackers on every corner, rapists who get away with raping babies, murderers killing for cellphones...does this not affect the rest of the world? The penalty for crime, does not fit the crime, the consequence is of no threat to the criminal? Now they want to upgrade our country for the 2010 world cup...what a joke! Do you see the corruption triumph in our government or are you blinded by the whole 'Racist' past we are connected to? Now we're celebrating 10 years of Democracy...or hypocracy?? Racism is in full flow right now at this moment, it only changed direction!...and everyone's fine with it? The world forgave Germany for their mistakes...We all thirst for justice!

I see South Africa as a once great and prosperous nation that
went down the tubes once it came under black rule...
South Africa was the crown jewel of Africa and the only self sufficient and succesful nation in Africa when it was under white rule.
This is typical of all the African nations that were once self sufficient and successful under white rule and then fell into the sewer under black rule...Africa is now entirely under black rule and the entire continent is a disaster area....I am not being racist, I am being realistic and these are the simple facts...I have no feeling one way or the other about South Africa's apartheid past.

I've heard from people that the situation in South Africa is nearly unbearable.
I see the people of South Africa the same as I see everyone:
Some good, some bad.
I am so sorry that things are so awful there. I just don't know what anyone could do about it. Throw money at the situation? That wouldn't help. Send troops? That wouldn't help either!
What can anyone do for you guys?

All the South African people I know (about seven) are quite great. Apparently you've got people from other African Countires sort of shipped to you which makes unemployment? I've heard that somewhere...
Justice? There is no justice, or else some useless justice...

After reading about your country I feel a little better about this one
(the USA). I remember a white kid as a youth who was from South Africa. He was unusual and very calm. His house was simple with few things and his mom sowed him a red kite that we flew outside.

My opinion, as an American, is that we ignore South Africa because it doesn't fit our pattern of injustice (e.g. blacks are held back by whites, women are held back by men, the poor are held back by the rich, etc.).
Even in our country we (whites) do little about black-on-black crime because we're afraid of being called racists, and probably in some case we are. And the blacks who try are called "Uncle Toms" by the black power brokers.
