Re: Farm Attacks 2020
gov't insists that "farm attacks" are fictional and that it only amounts to common house robbery with robbery as the motive. Tied by the neck to a pole in upright position, stabbed to death..... yeah, robbery... sure!!!

Re: Farm Attacks 2020
I live on a farm, I edc continuously. Most people around here are friendly and hardworking but the remoteness means that bad apples have enough time to watch & plan. And they do plan because they take into account reaction times of neighbours & security plus if they need more time block access roads.

Re: Farm Attacks 2020
And in other news: "Farmers" go on the rampage, storm the court in Senekal, burn a police van, damage property, call reporters liberal bitches for speaking English, destroy cameras and cell phones belonging to reporters like a bunch of AWB goons...
And next week they will complain around the braai about how the government wants them disarmed and the police doesn't have a van to respond to their complaints...
What a bunch of fucktards. I sincerely hope that these people do not represent the average SA farmer.

Re: Farm Attacks 2020
Except that it is not going to "wake up" anyone. The only effect will be that there will be animosity between the police and the "community".
The fact is that the police did their job. Suspects were arrested and brought before a court, but that wasn't good enough for the so called "farmers".
If I was a DFO in that area I would be busy registering sect 102's right now...

Re: Farm Attacks 2020
I understand the resistance to take things into ones own hands. But at what point do you say "dis genoeg"? The Farming community has been patient and tried to raise awareness with various role players, they have tried to hold vigils, block roads, make videos, flood social media. Our government do not listen, our police chief and president openly say it's not an issue. Where do you go from here?
Sadly people like Julius Malema are itching for this kind of eruption so they can make political capital of it, but it's been simmering for years - something has to give, the situation is untenable, the farming community will not be pushed further, so hopefully people can sit down and understand what is at risk. But to blame the farmers for reaching the end of their patience is a very detached view.
Yep. Exactly.

Re: Farm Attacks 2020
People burn down police stations, universities, clinics and the police stand and watch.
When a certain demographic protests peacefully, the police rock up with tear gas and stun grenades, this is exactly what happened at this protest before a court was stormed and a police van set alight.
If you can't beat them, join them, because we are gaining nothing by acting civilized in this country.
