You craps from down south of Africa have no brain. You cannot connect the dots.
You even do not understand that more than 60 african immigrants butchered is already a genuine reason for tourists not to go there.
And you are surprised that your tourism industry is being hit.By the way, you didn't do sh**t out there. Everything is owned by White folks.
Those jobs do not belong to you. They belong to whites. You do not know how to fix a bike,how can you claim that all those jobs belong to you?
When I see a Black south african I'll kick his butts.
They just don't have a good argument. They have to resort to calling you the old standard liberal terms.

We were contemplating visiting capetown with family but this if true will change our mind. Are these statistics real? which governments have issued travel warnings to capetown?
I first visited Cape Town in February of 2006 - I got bitten by the bug and moved out here full time in December 2007. Cape Town is just like any other major city in that it does have criminal elements. Of course if you walk around looking like a tourist it does increase the risks somewhat.

Generally speaking though I have to say that of all the cities I have visited throughout Europe and America, Cape Town has to be the most laid back and welcoming. The people are genuine, friendly and couteous -so different from the false plastic attitudes that predominate New York and the like.

So don't put off your visit. Plan your trip carefully and enjoy a beautiful country.

If you have had 1000 crimes commited against you in London you must have lived there for 10,000 years!
Just for your info I think thay meant 0.5Mill GBP which will just about buy you a garden shed in some parts of London

I think we established long ago that you are a European who does not speak an African language but pretends to be what he thinks is a militant African nationalist.

You should not only feel bad for them, you should write your congressman and the President demanding we help clean up the mess WE made over there when we demanded they dismantle the government that brought prosperity and order to their country in the first place.
That is a very silly argument because the change is RSA came from Afrikaner businessmen and the Afrikaner military officer corps, who realised the country was going nowhere under white minority rule. The Afrikaner politicians miscalculated however by having an early election ebleieving eth ANC were nto rpepared. In fact ANC wasn't that well prepared at all - especially when they took over - but the the real force, UDF, threw its weight behind ANC rather than remain separate and won the elections. The Americans caused much of the present havoc through front organisations backed by former CIA personnel like Ray Cline supporting death squads and political movements in Zululand, Lesotho, Mozambique and Angola, flooding the area with weapons and destabilising governments.

People like you join this forum merely because of racial hatred. You agree to the rules of the forum and then openly abuse them with your racial vitriol. Your word is meaningless.

What racial hatred? God's Warrior just states facts. Boring graphs and charts of the truth. Does the truth bother you?

I've been so South Africa once before, to Durban to be precise. I didn't experience any problems whilst there but I was told many stories by my friends over there about how they were held up at gunpoint in their own homes for a mobile phone. The fact that I'm white didn't seem to have any bearing on how good or bad my time was there and I wasn't treated any differently than I would expect to be treated by my own family. My friends are Indian and live in Chatsworth. I'm due to visit again in a couple of months but dues to some stories I've heard, I can't help feeling anxious. Is this with good reason?
Does anyone know about Chatsworth and crime there?
