    How is the criminal justice system there? Does it serve its victims?

    How do we ever begin to teach the value of life no matter what colour,culture, or background?
    SO sorry for your loss and the families of the victims.
    What a senseless crime?
    I will PM you as I dont want to bore Cervens with SA politics, but seeing that you asked I will answer as best as can.

    John,

    I am sorry for your loss.

    I fear as I think that you do that they died for a noble but perhaps futile cause of a safe and just immediate future for RSA.

    I will not cheapen the memory of their sacrifice by expounding my views on the present day capacity of governments in Africa.

    Personally, I hope this event can prompt some good in providing you the motivation to carry out your own plans for the future.


    Good luck mate.
