Shocked

Me and my dad have been talking through msn these last couple of days. Yesterday I asked him how things are going with the blacks there in SA. He told me that the SA Police Service is going all corrupt now.

Their neighbour's brother had to phone the police the other day when 3 people tried to break into his house. So what did the police (black ofcourse) ask him over the phone? What type of hats the burglars were wearing...

He realized they were not going to help him and put down the phone.

This reminded me of when I was still living there. I phoned the police once for domestic violence and to report that my ex ran off with my daughter. They arrived there, listened to the lies that my ex's mother told them and left. I felt helpless. There I was, alone, abused and worried about my child and the police just didn't care.

My heart goes out to the people in my home country.

My dad mentioned to me that there was also an article in the Pretoria News about how black police officers assaulted a white woman. I am not even going to comment on that, it makes me furious just thinking about how wrong that is.

Here I am living on an island where my fiance don't know about more than 3 murders being commited during the 25 years he's been living here. I'm safe and cared for.

Maybe that is why these people don't understand what is really going on in SA. They are not USED to that kind of cruelty being a part of everyday life.
