Realists acknowlege the RSA issues. Those that can leave are leaving. Those that can not leave long for the opportunity to do so. Those that acknowlege the problems have not plan other than smiling at the green dying grass and prefer a boiling pot. Those that deny the problems are the easy targets and do not get why the rest if the world is so called ‘wrong’ in highlighting the issues.

Bless your ignorance.

Some RSA people do return (e.g. Ja-Nee) – I never disputed this fact. They may have some spare cash to employ 2 maids, 2 garden helpers, afford the bullet proof BMW, money for bribes, money for foreign hospitals, 2 armed responses, that super dooper alarm system, satalite tracking for that Beamer, bucks to build that extra meter on house wall, private taxi driver, house in gated community, cheap booze and ciggies, and most importantly: those BIG BLINKERS for the eyes!

Ps. Google is your friend:

Please share where I said that Aussie is save? Every country has it issues. However, RSA is the world leader in Crime. Aussie is much much much safer than RSA. I find it amazing how you trash Canada, Australia, RSA, etc. Make up your mind please as it seems like you like trashing all countries. lol. Btw, I am yet to get what you are trying to say. Guess “10 point rubbish girl” is a great name for you as it suite you writing!

At the end of the day it is about life expectancy. A measure how long you will live on average in a country. Have a look.

Yes, we all die. But no stupid person run into a fire. Or do they? The basic person would run away. Seems like you are running into the fire!!!! lol.

Look at this. do you think this is a joke?

You are playing the odds (gambling) with you life by living in RSA. Denying this is just stupid. 50 murders a day, 60 attempted murders a day. Lets not even mention risk of AIDS, etc. Phew…WOW.

Even Nic agrees that RSA has issues. Why do you deny this Dianne? Get out while you can if you love life and like living.

NOTE TO NICK: People die terrible deaths every day, in every country. By getting in a car, your are endangering your life. I worked in litigation in auto insurance claims, and I’ve seen more horrific accident scenes that I care to describe. I’ve seen babies whose necks snapped in half and were sliced to bits as they sailed through the windshield because a parent decided not to put the baby in a child seat. I’ve seen horribly mutilated bodies because someone decided to drive instead of walk to the store. Simply by getting in a car, you invite death. Or paralysis, or mutilation. Or catastrophic head injury. Does this mean you won’t get in a car?? Does this mean you will write terrible things at people who blog about their favorite cars? That all Mustang lovers are superficial assh***s who deserve to be stomped on? According to your justifications for your accusations above, you should be angry with those people for not telling the truth , for not telling everyone that cars are actual death machines. Do you let your children drive a car, Nick? Do you let your teenagers get into a death machine? How irresponsible of you. Your parenting license should be taken away from you. Don’t you know the statistics on how many young people die/get paralyzed/have head injuries from cars? How many accident scenes have to been to? How many morgues have you visited to look at dead teenagers? But yet you let your kids drive. SHAME. You should be berating car magazines and commercials. You should never get in a car again. You should give up your driver’s license. Go on. I dare you. Give it up, Nick.

Or how about police officers. I worked with officers every day when investigating accidents and while working in customs. Do you think that because they could potentially be shot and killed every day, they should be writing terrible things about their jobs, telling young people that policing is a terrible job? Most of the officers I know LOVE their jobs, in spite of and because of the danger. Certain people thrive in stimulating situations and don’t even perceive it to be dangerous.

Basically, you are unable to understand that shit happens in life and we are all going to die. Some people care about death more than others. Some, like Buddhists, see death as simply the next phase and it does not worry them at all. Christians should not fear death either (remember, God commands that people fear nothing but Him), since heaven awaits.

Some people prefer to worry their entire lives (which to me is like a living death). Others choose to say “f*** it” and do the things in life that they love to do. I have travelled all over the world. I have been mugged and robbed and assaulted. But that does not stop me from living. As long as I’m alive, I will LIVE, and for me, living means experiencing life in it’s totality. Including things that are risky. Do you smoke? Do you drink? If so, you have more chances of dying from that than you do from being shot.

We ALL die, pal; maybe you have a giant cancerous tumour in your brain which makes you speak in such hateful language – maybe you won’t wake up tomorrow. Or maybe you’ll have a heart attack due to all the hateful energy you carry in your body. Or maybe you’ll choke on a carrot while you are pontificating at positive people. More people die of heart attacks than gun shots, my friend. I am very curious how you plan on avoiding death. Last I heard, people die in Australia, and Canada, and England, and South Africa, every single day. Babies, old people, middle-aged moms…everyone dies, and no one can control it, not even you.
