#2 Vigilantism happens anywhere where the government doesn't do its primary job of protecting citizens from criminals. The only other choice is "the rule of whim", like what the Afghans experienced under the Taliban.

#3 Not good, mob rule is never a good thing. You see, the same tune is often played (police refuse to arrest) for the non-black victim. It's easier that way for the coppers.

#4 "This came after the community stoned Charlie Movenda to death who tried to escape community custody, (who wouldn't, near Pretoria) when police failed to arrive on time". NO!!

Next they be taking peoples farms and eating endangered species.

Had to be said. I have recently given up caring about Africa, apart from how many migrants, legal or otherwise turn up here, thats what does interest me.

#6 The other option, sadly, is giving whiskey to an alcoholic. We need to continue inoculations to keep Africa from being a source of pestilence to the rest of the world, but beyond that, Africa wins again, yes?
