In the 90's, we had multiple farm attacks on our farm. My parents would sit at the windows in the dark house and shoot at the people shooting at our house with AK's. We hid under our beds as kids whenever that happened. It happened a few times. Twice they shot at our house after putting our fields on fire. I've seen bodies twice while walking to school in the morning too. Our neighbors were murdered. The wife was "assaulted" and they both were decapitated with barbed wire.

Funny fact: The reason why so many people have a wrong impression of what a lion's roar sounds like is in large part due to the "Metro Goldwyn Mayer" intro that was seen at the start of so many movies and other media for decades. You know the one. In that clip they replaced the lion's roar with that of a tiger - because it sounded more impressive. But tigers and lions sound nothing alike. This original error in perception propagated through later media. People expected to hear that kind of sound when they saw a lion on screen, so directors kept using tiger sounds. Now whole generations who have watched far more movies than nature documentaries have been unintentionally gaslit on this topic :P There are loads more similar examples of wrong sounds in movies and media being intentionally used, but I find this one particularly memorable.

Hello Winston. I'm Czech. One man from my church moved to South Africa some 30 years ago, when life wasn't so good here. He found a good job there, got married, had two kids there. He liked living there - it was actually his wife who wanted them to move to Czechia with him as she didn't feel safe and she was afraid for their children. It's about five years ago that they moved, so I'd say the situation isn't getting better there since you lived there, it keeps getting worse. So, the wife and both kids are learning Czech language now, and maybe they are getting used to a bit lower living standards, but at least they are not living in violent country and they are not hated for being white (yet).

I have to comment on the truth about guns in South Africa - for many years now, it is very difficult to obtain a gun license in South Africa. We all had to do competency tests in order to keep our guns for self protection in our homes. Very few people were lucky enough to be able to keep their guns - only if they had a very good reason. We have a business and my husband couldn’t even renew his firearm license although he was a captain in the defence force. We had to hand in our firearms and they were (hopefully) destroyed by the police. Many police stations were ‘robbed’ and guns stolen by criminals. Very often homes are targeted where it is known that the owners are in possession of firearms and the homeowners beaten and even killed and their firearms are stolen. So you are vulnerable with or without firearm in South Africa.

Governments that want to disarm law-abiding citizens are not doing so to "protect" the public. Strict gun control laws simply enable criminals to prey upon the populace without having to worry about their intended victims being able to defend themselves. When the criminal element has to guess whether or not their intended victims are armed they tend to be a bit more judicious in their actions. That strict gun control in SA has only contributed to a massive increase in violent crime.

Lived in SA 45 years ago for 4 years. Worked in Rhodesia in 77 and was told by resident who lived there, to get out of SA because it will be the same there as it was in Rhodesia. After dealing with a Totsi at work and getting stabbed twice, fortunetly I got the upper hand, I'm pretty strong. Our house got broken into where I had to protect the family. That was the final straw for me. We gave the house and car away for people to take over the payments, sold all the furniture and little savings we had and headed back to Canada in june 78. My Best Friend ever was a boer named Koos Pretorius I will see Koos in my way out of this world.

These guys told me SA is next and if I had children to move out of SA because it is next to go. They said the ANC will take everything, so a smart choice would be to get out now. I must say Rhodesia was Beautiful with Flamboyent trees where red Flowers grow on top and of coarse the Jackaranda trees and the smells of beauty everywhere. but there was nobody on the streets, it was like a desert, the reason was the people were fighting at night.

I saw videos of people being forced to travel in armed caravans with the military to travel between cities or even in the countryside. Would you say that is true? That by 77 people were starting to realize the war was going to wrong way? Or were people still optimistic?

A lot of South Africans emigrated to Australia. I was standing in the line at a supermarket and these two South African ladies met up for the first time since moving. They were like “Oh hi you moved to Adelaide too? Yeah totally, it was just getting to crazy in South Africa.” Then they were swapping “war stories”, “…I remember when my Mother was shot in the street” It freaked me out how casual they were talking about it, like Winston says it happens all the time. Bit of a culture shock for Australia where gun crime isn’t really a thing.

I would guess that every South African (or close to this) has at very least met at least one person who was later murdered. I think the closest murder to me was my 83 year old next door neighbour, who got stabbed in their second home invasion/ house robbery, for instinctively trying to defend his wife when they got too rough with her. We also came quite close to having that kind of unwelcome visitors, although the alarm was going when the kid they sent to smash the kitchen door in was attacking it, so I don't think we'd have had a long incident if we had. (That said, me and an uncle of mine were standing on each side of the door with knobkierries, ready to hit him as hard as possible when he broke in, so we might've been "punished" by the rest of the gang if he'd succeeded, but we damaged him too badly.) A friend of my brothers that I only met once responded to the alarm going off at his parents place on a farm near Greytown. He was one of these "karate pacifists" and very liberal in a good, kind way, so although he had a gun he just ran into their place, and all the attackers he could see there ran away. And then instead of shooting at them, he ran after one to catch him alive, got him down on the ground, got him under control, and then one of the rest of the gang he hadn't realized were there, too, came up from behind, and shot him point blank in the head. Your filling station shop story reminded me of something similar I encountered. It was in broad daylight, and I think the robbery had been a few hours ago by the time I got there, but the woman behind the till told me all about it. Frightening stuff. The professionals tend not to just kill for killing's sake, but you never know. I'd forgotten ... wow ... Farmer friends of ours, years ago, were attacked by a gang at night. The daughters were in the cottage in the garden, and one went to the main house to get a coffee or something, and was met at the door by the attackers (17 years old at the time, I think she was). The one with the handgun pushed in into her stomach in a way that caused bruises afterwards, and told her to take them to her parents. They went past her brother, who was busy playing some computer game in the office, wearing headphones, so didn't hear a thing. She took a chance, and shouted before they got to the bedroom door, "Pa, daar's mense hier ... " (Dad, there are people here). This woke her dad up and made him suspicious enough to move toward the door as he got up. Then as the girl opened their bedroom door, she finished her sentence, saying , "En hulle hou my vas", while breaking quickly away into the room, and grabbing the pull switch for the light as she went. At this point, her dad was behind the door and the guy with the gun was turned away from it. Dad just attacked, and grabbed the gun hand and held on for dear life. Luckily as soon as this happened, the other four members of the gang fled, so there was just this one with the gun. He was really strong, so it took both hands to hold that gun hand. The farmer's wife ran to the bathroom, where they had a handgun (don't know why it was there), and ran back and took a shot, which missed and went through the wooden floor, so the farmer shouted at her not to shoot. The shot alerted the son, who had a home made self defence weapon made of a pipe with an enormous bolt welded onto the end of it, and came running up with that. Between them they managed to beat up the gunman to the point where he let go of his weapon, and was down and injured. And then something terrible happened to this farmer, our friend. He snatched that weapon from his son, and started to lay into the attacker on the floor with all his might. I think I'd better stop here with something vague. He had feelings he'd never had for another human being before, and afterwards the memory of them was a horrible thing for him. The kids pulled him off, brought him back to reason, back to being himself. The story kind of ended happily ever after. The police caught some of the other gang members and they all got long sentences. I had forgotten about that. How does one forget something like that? And now I'm remembering the lovely man who worked on my brother's farm, who became sad (was always happy, always glad to just be alive) when the tsotsis murdered his brother while stealing his disability pension. There would have been no reason to kill him. They must've done it just "for fun". OK now I've really had enough of this.

I lost my SA citizenship because apparently, I needed permission to keep it. So, unfortunately, I am no longer able to visit Eswatini, Gambia, Guyana, Saudi Arabia or Senegal without a visa. These obscure countries will be sorely missed, or I'll just apply for a visa on my Mexican passport. Saudi Arabia is the only one worth a bother, and you can enter on a US visa, which I have/need anyway. I can even enter South Africa without a visa and have consular protection because I'm not a citizen, so if I ever visit and all hell breaks loose, I can approach the Mexican embassy for help. I did the research and found that I effectively only lost access to 4 countries - none of which I ever planned to visit, but I gained 50, including most of Europe, and I have a card that allows me access to China without a visa. Compare your citizenships and see if it's worth keeping.

Still live in South Africa and it's getting worse by the day. There are daily drive by shootings, assassinations at shopping malls. Constant scenes of crime such as the ones you would see in a movie. Jewellery stores are robbed often and cash in transit heists very common. ATMs get blown up. Living in South Africa is a constant trial of survival. It's not uncommon to drive on a main highway and see a body hanging from a tree on the side of the road. Drivers drive towards oncoming traffic when they do not want to follow slow moving traffic. There are no laws here, basically, crims run the country. There's also the construction Mafia that extorts money from companies. There is so much more that it would require writing a book.

Yeh I worked with a fellow civil engineer who grew up and worked for a bit in South Africa and he had many similar stories. How annoying and frequent it was to turn up to his construction site and people had been hung from the building's frame overnight and he couldn't get on with work until the police had taken them down. Random animals being about if you left the cities. How his best friend was a security guard and got his throat slit from behind for his shotgun and shoes. The perp would then go on to try and rob a convenience store with the shotgun and got gunned down by the clerk. Or how when he was out surveying to build a water treatment plant he came under fire from a guy with an AK but he and his buddy, both of whom spent a lot of time down the gun range, outshot him with revolvers, he ran away and when the police turned up they released dogs to chase him down. Half an hour later the cops turned up with the perp to identify him, a hole blown through his abdomen from a revolver hit and his kidney hanging out his back. Hours later, after the survey, they went to the police station to find they had chucked the perp into a packed jail cell, without medical attention, where he died before they readied his paperwork because they give medical attention after writing them up "so people don't treat the police station like a hospital" the cop explained to him.

It's just nuts! One of my good biker friends was transferring cash from one location to another for his company. I expect someone on the inside tipped off one of his dodgy mates and on the way down the road he was jumped by a van full of armed people who not only wanted the money, but wanted him to get in the van with them as a kidnap. The only way he got out of it was to hand them his gun and insist they let him go because he has nothing else on him. He could have died that day. One time he was at traffic lights and someone snatched his prescription sunglasses off of his face. He jumped out of the car and chased him down the road, firing shots at him! Police pulled him over once, when the officer walked up to his window it turned out he only wanted to admire his car and ask if he could take it for a blast around the block. He allowed him to do it and the cop actually came back and said "Nice car bru", apparently this happened more than once!

I was born in the Netherlands and grew up in Rhodesia and South Africa. I have been living in Cape Town since 1984 - currently living in a village called Melkbosstrand on the outskirts of the city. I have never been mugged, raped, held at gun point or anything like that. I also do not personally know anybody who has had any such experiences. My house has no walls around it, no burglar bars, no alarm with armed response and my guard dog is a French Poodle. I also do not own a gun (it was stolen 26 years ago due to my own negligence - I left it lying around unattended with workmen in the house) and I have no desire, nor do I see a need, to ever own a gun again. I have travelled fairly extensively and I am aware that South Africa has many challenges, but I love my life here and would not want to move anywhere else. I have many friends in Johannesburg who also love their lives there and have no desire to live elsewhere. Every country and city in the world has its problems and challenges - just don’t be stupid and stay away from the dodgy areas!

@@jennifersymons7036 Yes, there is good and bad in every country. But the fact is that some countries are much worse than others. I'm from Czech Republic. Noone has to walk around with a weapon, armed robberies, hijackings and murders are pretty much unheard of in here. I can walk down the street in the middle of the night and know I'll be fine... So saying that there is good and bad in every country is a phrase that says literally nothing.
