Aaah, our friend julius (no caps) hahaha! “…ANC Youth Leader Julius Malema is facing a possible genocide charge at the International Court of Justice in The Hague..” Kinda makes sense you feel that way. No guys, crime statistics are kooked by government in SA (…and there boys, julius malema is running the show), we all know that…Google, my friends, is a useful tool. Try it a bit, you may find it to your liking.

Farm murders are horrific in SA as mentioned – Please Google farm attacks and establish the truth. I will not list the actual web site address here – the pictures will haunt you. I wish the World cup every success for the whole of SA.

This article misses the point -
In some countries when the victim and perpetrator of a violent crime are of different races, the crime is automatically considered a hate crime UNTIL proven otherwise. The SAPS keep data on the race of people they process so these statistics exist, but are totally excluded from this article. Different communities have different crime patterns. This article claims to prove that white South Africans are not victims of racial hate crimes. It fails.
The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.

I think one demographic you have clearly avoided including in your piece is that of the white farmers, as far as I know they suffer a murder rate of over 300 per 100 000. many of these are not only killed but also tortured in the process.
