    In two sentences seems murder, assault, drug crimes and robbery type crimes against private citizens up; robbery type crimes against corporate (CIT, banks etc) down. So not good news to the majority of us.

    Consulation prize, police detection of crimes better and rape down.

    Not that I needed it but gives me warm fuzzy feeling where my new EDC is tucked into my waistband.

    Just think how bad it will get if tighter restrictions are envisioned in the scheduled FCA amendment. I just hope that this does not happen and that the amendment is more supportive for FA owners. But then again "if wishes were horses, beggars would ride"

    Just my 2c worth.

    At least this gives some more evidence for the GOSA case.

    More lucrative crime targets (CIT, bank, high value business) which is actively protected with private firearms is being left alone in favour for less lucrative private citizens which is less protected due to propaganda and FCA.

    "A second consecutive year of increases in serious violent crime such as murder, attempted murder and aggravated robbery are of particular concern to all South Africans,’ said Gareth Newham, head of the ISS Governance, Crime and Justice division.
    "Murder is up by 5% with an additional 809 murders. Robbery increases are particularly concerning. Home robbery is up 7.4%, with 1 334 more cases than the previous year. Business robbery is up by 13.7% with 2 238 more attacks, and car hijacking is up by 12.3% with 1 231 more attacks than occurred the previous year.

    Your legal guns caused this crime-remember this how they will "deal" with crime issues,focus on the easy targets,it sounds like are doing something without actually tackling the issues and,or criminals...

    ^^^ vs if the stats came down,it would be because the fca is working so well, and it needs "strenghening"...

    *either way=lets have more guncontrol!

    Phiyega stated that we need to ensure our own safety as the house is the first police station. If she wants this, then they must change the procedure for licenses to license the owner and register the FA.
