May 1999 In this report South Africa's growing vigilante crisis is thrown into sharp relief when the rape of a black girl is publicly avengedSome of her attackers live in her street and she now fears for her life. Frustrated that the police will do little to help she approaches the local taxi firm to help her get revenge. "Will you be satisfied and stop crying once we've beaten them?" the firm ask her. At 4am the girl points out her township tormentors to willing vigilantes. They strip the culprits naked, strap them to a lamp post and lash them. The girl herself gives the first stroke. The legacy of apartheid leads South Africans to such violence, when even the police disregarded their own laws. The mob ruled when it black against white. This past has depersonalised and dehumanised. The police stand accused of apathy but often they are frustrated by clever criminals. But unless the police earn people's trust, vigilantism may become the norm.

The police? Who are they? Never heard of 'em.

Shut the fuck up you imbecile. Extreme poverty conditions make people do unspeakable things, wake the fuck up and study something instead of making your race sound almighty. Soon Europe will be up shitscreek with this credit crunch, a continent so reliant on other continents for supplying virtually everything. Europe will be the worst off and I can just imagine you robbing your neighbor for the last of her food. Grow a brain, if at all possible.

Nelson Mandella ruined south africa, how dare he think the nigger could run anything, i think he should be tried for treason and hung. I will make up the rope!

any place that is heavily populated with niggers is unsafe and crime ridden, j'burgh, london etc.. Niggers are basically animals that have wrongly been given human rights.

Well, you see, if you don't creosote you're not protecting your fence from long term damage. I assume from your "comment" that you channel your energies solely into child welfare which begs the question why are you wasting time on here? Haven't you got children to save? Me, I'm creosoting. And if my neighbour doesn't like it I'm calling a cab full of hoods to do him over. As I say, he's a cunt.

im for this type of justice...but death should not be a penalty at the hands of a mob---what if they were innocent? no trial, just guilty. if they admit to their crime its different. false accusations could cause a disaster.--glad i live in US.
