Why do South Africa's law enforcement agencies not seem to be curbing or preventing violent crime incidents plaguing us of late?
Two likely reasons come to mind:
1) Because they are really unable to curb or prevent violent crime and don't want to admit it, or
2) Because they want the country to be or at least appear to be becoming ungovernable.
Of course, one would have to really wonder why the second reason might apply... except if, for example, they might later need to "justify" a reactionary crackdown on societal or democratic freedoms.
Surely I am exaggerating? I don't know, am I?
Asking myself this question, I am confronted with several interesting facts.
At the top of the list of these interesting facts, is the detail that something like this is beginning to happen right now with the pending reintroduction of media censorship.
