  1. RIP to Brook and condolences to her family.

    Many ‘visitors’ to South Africa is oblivious on how dangerous the South Africa is. The MSM keeps these people in a dream. My country is also the worlds crime capital, deterioration of infrastructure and cost-cutting has put it on fast forward to decline the last 30 years. Many people go to Cape Town and say they’ve been to ‘South Africa’. Like going to Hawaii and saying you’ve been to the US. Two other foreign tourists that made news was Nick Frischke, who was never found, and US tourist Walter Fischel, that took a ‘wrong turn’. People need to be aware as there is an ignorance created by media. Something else is that South Africa is partly western. The other part of South Africa is known for witchcraft. People get abducted and murdered for what is known as ‘muti’. (Potion) Mostly African albinos, mixed race and whites. As these are seen as ‘strong potion’. If this sounds like ‘science fiction’ then can be easily fact-checked. Joslin Smith and British couple Tony and Gillian Dinnis that are recently cases comes to mind. The Christian parts of South Africa (mostly westernised) people get along but it’s rural and travelling to the differences open up. South Africa is NOT the US. It is a country with unique people and complex history. As people we need to be more aware of our surroundings and countries. Unlike the US, the opposite is true in other countries. Many times the US perspective is ‘sold’ as a global perspective and that can get you into trouble.
