Communities on the Cape Flats in the city of Cape Town say police have lost control of gang violence.
More than 900 people have been killed in turf battles since the start of the year, and the government is now preparing to deploy the army to clamp down on the unrest.
Al Jazeera’s Fahmida Miller has the story.

Where are all these drugs & guns coming from?
@Yusra Daniels blah blah blah!!…those hooligans kids have corrupt minds. FINISH & KLAAR..y’all stop looking every where else to just to paint. What y’all have to say about those hooligans thugs who put other innocent people in danger??? there’s no corrupt cops here..
@lwazi Morris hard livings my man. numbers gangs . born killers and the government jail bird haas drol vreters . how many jobs back in 88 today 2019 no jobs . rainbow drol nasie van diefville
@Azanian Bantu koi koi own rsa point. azania was a country 2000 years ago .red sea area africa. the whole nation was genocide by bantu tribes .your thick as a plank boy. azania drol
@lwazi Morris I know it has alot to do with the children, their parents and their trash environment, I’m not making excuses at all. But there are corrupt cops who sometimes allow these things to happen .
Policemen provide the weapons and Powerful Druglords import the Narcotics from other countries
Eradicating poverty is the long term solution
@Inga Nodie THANKS TO THE ANC THE WHOLE COUNTRY IS LIKE THIS .WAKE UP MY FRIEND YOUR COFFEE IS GETTING COLD
There’s no excuse for what’s happening here… The government is not serious about stopping crime here… in fact i am sure the top officials are getting something big out of it. It’s so easy to catch these guys,they rob people in broad daylight but the police don’t care at all!
@Inga Nodie They can’t even run Western Cape Province alone
You actually have to be willing to work and stop allowing MILLIONS of poor people from the rest of Africa pouring into the county for this to work.
Black leaders keep their black people poor and the black voters never vote idealistically.
No !
Subject matter notwithstanding, I’m loving all these South African videos Al Jazeera has been posting.
Yes nuke the townships
@LordBane I’m actually a white guy trolling
Mal ya
Lmao I agree!
Pay R100 to security guy in airport then u can bomb n blow whole airport that’s simple n easy it is in south Africa
No jobs no hope caused by affirmative action and bad governance by the ANC. SA army not fit for the task, the government is confessing that they’ve lost control. Military personel are not equipped or trained to deal with civil issues. Army = warzone
Eradicate poverty crime will take care of itself until then forget it.
Crime was very high in Italy when they were poor but look at Italians now.
You can not deprive people opportunities and expecting to just to seat there and do nothing.
South African government it’s still the same government of the apartheid with a black face
YOU SIR HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD!!!!!!!!
@Jodie Landon thank you so much for that… I am a Capetonian and unemployed but I am not a gangster. It’s because they get away with murder and armed robbery everyday. Shame on those who blame unemployment and poverty for that. I have lived in Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi where unemployment is much more serious but the authorities there don’t tolerate such nonsense crime
@Jodie Landon I agree with you…its the same with black people always complaining and wanting things handed to them on a silver plate…You need to do what you gotta do and your situation should not turn you into a thug. I know what it’s like living on both sides of the spectrum and I promised myself that I would do everything in my power to get myself and my family out of poverty
but no brains
@Osaka 122 coloreds are nothing but black people has being lied to for hundreds of years that they were blessed black to be mixed with oppressors blood that’s nonsense then and it’s nonsense now
Uhm, they killed 43 people (in cape Town) THE WEEKEND the army got deployed 😂 of which 25 cases were gang related, the army is useless.
BTW, I recognized “MICHAEL’S” voice. I know exactly who he really is.
You must read news.hold up in paper work.means they not in the streets
The Army is not useless, they’re just not being given full access for a successful operation.
It’s the police which is useless.
sandf aids farm in boots
sandf aids in boots .
until SA laws jail murders for life..gangs will never end
@Julia D and what happens when the wrong person is killed
This solution won’t work because the SA prison system is just a feeder for the numbers gang which turns petty criminals into cold blooded killers. They come out into society only to commit more crime
If that law can be implemented coloureds population can decrease by percentage of 70%😂.majority of them are scary. I can’t even live there and I don’t wish.
bs dude. till 1989 most killers hang at Pretoria d r . that did not change a thing did it. some men are just born idiots . no one stopped them from leaving or working in maputo or cairo
A life for a life, why waste room, jails are for rehabilitation, reflection and to try out schooling if you dont have it already. Not feeding and sheltering monsters.
Drop a nuke on cape town.
Jou ma se Poes. Vir Jou skiet ons inie gesig slimkat
This is sad. I’m from Cape Town. I live about 10km from the Cape flats. It’s really sad what’s happening there. People are dying like chickens.
I hope the army will help.

Anglo-Germanic stock are the best Whites….
@Akwida Really! Gangstrism & illegal drugs on the Cape flats, and most other places around the world was initiated & still maintained by them. Best stock in accordance to what.
@Akwida oh ja because that was great right!!? Wow. Literally backward thinking
@Zwivhuya Sivhabu well the parents of those hooligans must do enough too. why always blaming?? The problem is from those who kills, steal from innocent souls.
Akwida just about to say that
Lack of jobs and corruption
@JapaneseSalaryMan the ANC sure..
JapaneseSalaryMan
Having spent several years living in East and West Africa, I can assure the planning you described is not the way Bantus think….
There’s a reason South Africa held First World status during the late 70s and early 80s …
There’s also a reason why South Africa is headed to 4th World status…
Can you name them?
@Akwida then go away..
Lack of brainless and race-baiter….that you🙄. every race in south Africa is affected by the situations, your question should be why those coloureds hooligans idolize gang lifestyle like its something good and motivating!!..stop finding excuses.
Lack of brain cells and race baiter…
They are playing. They should go to the Central American countries, such as EL Salvador 🇸🇻, they’ll see what gangs are really are. Ms13 🙄
Mark Coetzee Surely, you know nothing about the gangs in Central America
All I’m saying is. I have a friend from Mexico born and raced and I am a cape coloured. We have been mistaken for being the same race by both sides. That must mean something in atleast physical appearance.
30 70 Yes, that is true dear.
@OM Rams I know about the central American gangs they ruthless yes but when it comes to south Africa we in a league of our own we don’t worry about countries gangs and how they operate…If I would be in central and south America in sure I’ll have a hard time over there cause I’m not familiar with the gang culture over there and if they should be here it would be the same
@30 70 because south americans are mixed too. But they look nothing like us as we mixed African Asian and european and they only mixed european and native American..
The real question is ….why is Wouter Basson’s work still active ? If apartheid really ended then who is the force behind distabalising coloured communities? Who is selling arms to them to kill each other off? Who trafficking drugs into these communities at this present day….the doctor of death started it in the apartheid years …who has taken over the reigns ?
The thing i want to know….they want us to destroy one another
Nelson Mandela wasted his life getting jailed for 27 years! What a Shame! SMH!
Compare when Mandela went to jail and now..and tell me if there is any different?
@weezySKLH South Africa was not the HIV/ Aids and Rape Capital of the World! Maybe you are comfortable with the situation?
@Lion of Zion Actually, Malmo, Sweden is now the “rape capital” of the World due to the heavy influx of “refugees” and “migrants”. Islamic . Islamic .
yes muntdela pleaded guilty to 150 charges in court. amnesty international would not help him. self confessed mass murder in court. he was sentenced to hang. then it went all wrong . blessed are the bomb makers now they loot the nation of billions monthly. vote anc and starve….hahahaa
polsmor he had his own home swimming pool maid etc etc. look on the net. .then came the haas island crew to rule yo 94. see now the future is clear
Nope our army is broke
saNdf aids in boots on wages
This wont end until inequality has been eradicate
Actually nothing to do with inequality. A thug is a thug.
wheres that in dream land . the whole world is that way. you just have gangs who are low lifes. same back in the 70s 80s etc . their were gangs selling drugs in cape town back in the 1880s
@guy savanna in 1880’s where you there?? Y’all like shifting blames. You white apartheid beneficiaries will never face struggles of people of Color. South Africa still living in apartheid structure….where blacks were taking and ditched in dirty areas while white people living lavish lifestyle. How can previous /current government change what was working for 500 years in 30 years, tell us how.?? the economy its still in hands of apartheid beneficiaries,….so being a government for black people means nothing. cause still apartheid beneficiaries won’t share anything with other races in SA.
@lwazi Morris you have no books alphabet or written history . where are your books from 500 years ago. not even the wheel or stone buildings.. we know you communist self entitled losers . its the end of the road azania is a terrorists dream . . make your own life stop stealing and being lazy thugs .struggle where to be honest workers and stop stealing and burning shops for last 6 weeks .
2019 and they still can’t figure this out
Most countries in 2019 still have gang and drug problems.
And where is DA
@L B DA is in power ,their power is limited to the European South Africans in Cape town ,if they wanted to help they would done everything in their provincial powers to help ,same energy they give to protecting the beaches .
@MissG Ndlovu you’re an idiot. DA does NOT control the police or the army. Only the Governong party (ANC) has the power to control those departments. Hence why ANC has failed Cape town and the western Cape as far as security (and basically all SOEs) in the province/city.. go back to school and learn about governments powers smh
DA is leading campaigns to fight the parasites in ANC who are the ones who actually have the control to do something but as usual with all areas , do worse than nothing. They feed off the collapse to fatten themselves like the greedy immoral parasites they are while complete dumbasses like yourself still worship them. SA government is one thing but the people of SA sadly demonstrate pure stupidity. At least ANCs fat frogs can boast of all the wealth they stole from its citizens. What do these dumbasss citizens have to boast about 😂. They boast about their idiotic lifestyles and fake leaders who are more than happy to continue raping them 😂
@Zed On Meds If I had way when ANC meetings took place would blow them all with no hesitation but they are still winning elections because every time votes are near you start to see many racial incident caused by Boers and it unleashes fascist tendencies to black communities DA deserved to win the 2 past elections but when society is unrealistic stupid as Boers on those dates ANC will rule forever
da they are blowing mk looters . national interest
I thought they say is the Nigerians that sell drugs in South Africa? Confused country.. instead of facing their problem they always point fingers on hard working Nigerians…
It is the Nigerians…. they ruined our country
Lol for hardworking nigerians
@Lesego that is why you continue to be a slave even to this very day.. nonsense
@Sam Loco Funny Movies go sleep, are you even an SA citizen. Yes the Nigerians sell the drugs and traffic our women. We see this with our own eyes but wtf can we do the police doesn’t care
@Lesego stop blaming us every country has it own problem
If Nigerians sell drugs that doesn’t mean we gave you guns to kill yourself just sell the drugs and enjoy your money lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂 xenophobia people we all know S.A hate everybody
You guys blame everybody for your problem but white and other African people wake up and make your country better and stop killing yourselves
Give the country back to the white people.
Communism doesnt work huh?
Egonjkp we don’t have communism in South Africa. Wtf
@Zacky J ANC is literally born out of communism. Do you even know the ANC history?!
@L B yes!..i know APARTHEID structure that still exist in south Africa that was never erased.
@lwazi Morris What structure?! Literally everything in SA is catered towards the black man. Every law!
@L B oky
Yu know it’s real when gangsters complain about police not doing their jobs
Lucas Siyabonga Mphela the truth in this thou.😭😂😂😂
Lol
This is a funny statement but it happens because of how poor civilians are also boxed in with the gangsters. Quite litterally
Lol
@30 70 the cops are the gangsters and the mk jailbirds are their boss . will south africa one day have a non jail bird non terrorist affiliated government.. Canada only took the anc off the terrorist list about 8 years ago or less..Even president j b vorster from 1966 to 76 n p party he was a jail bird did 6 years in jail 1940 s..makes you think,
Shoot at site this bastards
Love ❤️ Philippine President Duttertte… Same do in South Africa
Karama gold Ghana Philippines is fuckt
@Dream Chaser Not really. The only ones dying here are the druggies and the streets are safer for ordinary folks, the economy’s doing good too, altogether pretty nice time.
Karama gold Ghana l wish he was the president of South Africa
Yeah they need Dueterte to fix that place up!! He’s done such an amazing job with the Philippines 😍😍😍😍
Guys does not want to be identified, but you show his sling, back and clothes. They can easily be identified like that. Maybe Al Jazeera costed that man his life already.
Zunaid Kajee 9
Then he should not have done the interview, cos he probably knew what was gonna happen?
Impound all armunition in this community gangs busy relocating as we speak please do door to door searches and roadblocks
The first part is getting rid of the communist government.
@Julia D What you have described
and what ANC done are nationist not communist.
South Africa isn’t a communist country.. You sound dumb
Shifting blame?? I see what you did here. Countries with huge economy do have notorious gangs like USA. so STOP finding excuses and go help those hooligans with toxic minds on cape flats.
You white person. I wouldn’t be surprised. Y’all are shifting blames while the apartheid structures still affecting people of colour. Blacks/ coloureds living in shacks while white apartheid beneficiaries living in green world.
Bernard, you are a political idiot.
Apartheid still rules in South Africa, American style.
what?
What do you mean?
@Menziwa The Servant this oak is dizzy xD
Please explain , come on we are waiting.
Only now it has a black face
Al Jazeera…please please please dig deeper. Check AP sources for 80s violence during the 1985/86/87 state emergency period on the flats and across South Africa. This is much more than a gang war. Listen to the complaints of the public then and compare with now. Cut and paste. Eldorado Park(Johannesburg), Northern Areas(Port Elizabeth) are all going through this. Not just the cape. Its all targeted at one racial group.
Ask yourself what happend to the Wit Doeks and other armed groups that turned the Cape into a civil war. These actions smell of a resurgence of that very same violence. The social problems won’t be fixed as long as no one is willing to recognise the effect forced removals had on our people. Spatial planning and segregated races were designed to keep races at each other for generations and as a spin off halt any progress at a solution in the future. The drugs come from Eastern Europe. The weapons flooded on the streets are European and Asian. This is a calculated move. Question is BY WHO
I might not agree with the last part of your comment, but you hit the nail on the head – the effect of segregation will affect generations to come.
😪
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
When Pieter Du Toit released the book- The Stellenbosch Mafia-inside the billionaires club
all I could think of are the real monsters behind the Cape Flats mess and their tactics to blame it on black government. Until we free ourselves from the idea that we are better than blacks, we deserve better than blacks, we are preferred more than blacks, we are Khoi and they are foreign to this land, in reality WE will never taste freedom because black communities have proven to be far better than us mentally and spiritually. All we ever did was to criticize and racially slander them even though we know who is our real enemy.
Gangsters can always sound so sad and blame it on everybody else but not themselves. He is one of the reasons cape town is fcked..
There are soooo many poor countries where people dont turn in to gangsters because of no jobs. Its all excuses excuses.
You dont have to become a gangster just because you cant find a job. I grew up in the exact same situation, seen alot of things. Lost so many loved ones. They always use not getting a job as an excuse to become a gangster. Theres lots of opportunities out there but most of them just stroll early mornings, sitting at home, smoking and drinking or lookng for people to rob.
Getting rich quick is what these thugs want
@Romy YT I am half Portuguese and half South African. When I was 5years I moved to Portugal. But I still have a lot of relatives in South Africa, and I get mad when I see them at home setting on the couch, praying for money, but they don’t make any effort for a job. They try once, and if they get rejected, they give up, they don’t try different ways and they don’t insist. In Portugal when I try to get job sometimes I get rejected many times, but after I insist so much there is always somebody that hires me.
@CPT 911 you one of those gangsters. RUBBISH.
take the c out cape town you got the invasion from north by force still to come.
Unemployment and unequal is the cause of this. If you want to visit a 3-in-1 country, visit South Africa.
I’ve always wanted to live In south Africa..I don’t know now
Sherwin Dlamini tell me what you know then
Used to be ok pre 94. Now its on a steady decline. Welcome to banana republic. And its the same all over, not just cape town.
@zerpashmal if you believe that then you’re a fool. This happens everywhere.
@Graham T shut up…y’all are still apartheid beneficiaries and SA, still live in apartheid structure implemented by white supremacists.
@zerpashmal exactly!!…sooo true. South Africa still living under apartheid structure that was implemented by white supremacists. we will never be free as people of colour, TRUST ME.
This solution will only suppress the problem, not eliminate it immediately. This strategy was implemented by Mexico, Brazil and central America in recent years.
Both DA white racist and ANC black nationalist dont care about the death and ipoverishment of South Africans who are not white or black ie the Coloured majority of the western Cape. The ANC only look after the black looters in government and DA are only worried abt the White minority Colouredss need to wake up and root out disrespect and gangsterism among themselves ,dont wait for a non existing govenment ANC are too apathetic but in all fairness they dont rule in WC but the white DA .
Aljazeerah should make more reports on the treatment of Coloured minority in South Africa .They are being economically marginalised by the current ANC blacks and the white DA just use them for their voting fodder .
Under the constitution colored and indian people are classified as black, so the same opportunities provided to black people are provided to colored and Indian people. Indians take advantage of this system that’s why they don’t struggle like black and colored people do. Stop with the conspiracies, people must work.
Yeah….blames all black people but living those hooligans kids who idolize gang lifestyles. why only coloureds are deadasses in education only?? If government responsible?? Whites/Indians/blacks doing well in schools where are Coloureds??? Blaming ANC?? Licking dicks of apartheid beneficiaries?? I guess.
how many poor countries have become gangsters? poverty pushes a man to become wise not gangster. evil people are evil people .
It takes bravery to abolish this disgusting act.
The black ANC government want us to kill each other
@Inga Nodie True. I prefer my country pre-1994.
When there was order.
DARIAN MIGUEL SAMUEL KOOPMAN you’re either trolling or an ignorant racist
yep thats the plan . all minorities must die or leave rsa . the anc terrorist want that
@JapaneseSalaryMan thats what the anc are. they invented the necklace . they have stolen your future. can not even be fixed in 50 years.
we left the country with our money and all investments . now living with civilized humans. earning real money not muntty notes
Eradicting poverty on the Cape Flats is the answer. Colored and black people are being dumped in hunting grounds for Gangsters. RDP homes where gangs are just moved from one eara to the next makes the situation even more wide spread. I’ve not seen any raids in Ottery , Hanover Park , Laverderhill Hill, Bontehewel at all! This is such a farce…argh! People of color do not matter in this Country.
its not just cape town all over South Africa since the Nigerians arrived drugs have become a source of income for these gangsters and the police are also involved. the laws in SA when it comes to murder and drugs is a joke.
@Julia D comeon guys we not Americans let’s not sound like them
Yeah, build the Trump wall
yes anc protect them from the rope ..brotherhood of evil . must be free to kill again.
It’s easy to identify a guy who has a cast on his arm
Well make the laws more harsh that will be a start
It wont help making harsher laws if you cant enforce the existing ones.
When PAGAD wanted to sort out yhe gangs the govt ANC stopped them . The army wont make a dent. The gangs will go underground then when the army leaves they will surface again.
And start the next ISIS here in cape town? No thank you
They are not the law!
It’s Time for PAGAD to make a real comeback
Always blaming the ANC!! Typically white tendency. SA is still like this cause of apartheid structure that was never erased. whites in green side of the world and people of colour on the bushes.
@lwazi Morris So how long before the govt comes right. They are running out of time and other peoples money.
And let me tell you I have seen plenty blacks ridding cars I can only dream of and staying in very fancy houses with all the trimmings.
Pray tell what apartheid structures there still are, because from where I am looking all I see is BEE and AA is that not discriminatory.
What a joke. As a South African we know the reality of living on the Cape Flats.
And is the reality sir?
Unfortunately there are too many internal issues that delays productivity.
Stuug dagh Fùjj opp staùpod ahdy mùslim
What if all their customers had to slowly go on rehab..?
drugs is big big money . so no change
nah breh cape town gotta get better
NO THE SA ARMY CAN’T HIT A DRUM AT 50 METRE
police get their cut from the drug sails we the public see how the gangs pay large sums of money to the police in broad daylight in front of the public then they just drive off you don’t know who to trust so we say nothing to survive
Ha ha ha . Have you seen the army ? Useless. And lets not forget the two times they got deployed outside S.A..
@N O M F U N D O please give us 1 shining example of them been not useless. Its better we put them to use instead of paying, clothing and feeding them to sit around and do nothing.
The Real South African Army fought in Angola.
Whites build the best armies in the world.
@Akwida wow same army destroyed by flip flop wearing Angolan soldiers supported by Cubans who peed there pants in Angola and Namibia only thing they were good at is killing civilians
Luvuyo Abraham
LOL!!!!
Stop lying, Racist…..
So i just watched a carte blanch thing about the army going to the cape. Guess what, nothing changed. And… it cost them 2r million to be there. 😂😂😂 So they get paid to do nothing but all of a sudden they need more money to do something. 😂😂😂
How is fatty on the task force
SA law enforcement is a bunch of fat cowards who harrass innocent people more than the real criminals out there. Its the general state of SA despotism everywhere
Bringing the army in shows how pathetic and corrupt and useless the police are in South Africa
The death penalty must come back
Army can at least bring some stability. If they need to stay in order for the kids to be safe then 100% yes stay
Education + social rehabilitation= Problem solved
These gangs has been operating in South Africa for more than 39 yes. It is not the first time the army tries to atop them. They have been falling to fight them and they are even afraid to enter their main territory . These gangs run a multi billion drug industry and they have the most money. They even do their operation from prison. They are just too advanced and it will take forever to eliminate them
guy savanna you know you just said something I never thought of. The Mk’s . Now I have pieces to put together
@Thabang Mashika thats why they use to hang them mk killers pre 89 . n p were the big gangsters back then . brotherhood of dictatorship handed down to the mk jail birds who brought control and fear now its 2019 .even the sap many have become worse than jailed rats , zim style voting still to come for 20 years . glad we left .. the vultures have landed. and just yesterday old chief in terrorist hippo eyes told the nation on tv south africa is bankrupt its all bucjked up.. we stole all da money . ..better start hanging rubbish again it will bring order and wealth like good muti .
guy savanna I hear you. Thanks for sharing the information. It makes sense now.
Seker apartheid se skuld
Ja niks is Apartheid se skuld nie.
I bet you all wish that you had a white government. Just like the old days
@Sibongiseni Dlamini hey i guess that julius malema has it all worked out. What’s the economic strategy. Is it mass African migration to Europe. Or is it live of foreign aid.
Listen, it’s pretty futile debating you. Your initial comment was racially motivated, yet you think you sound really smart. Ok bro.
@Sibongiseni Dlamini so is KILL THE BOER. And seizing white south African farmers land without any form of compensation. You are absolutely right. There is clearly no point debating the subject
james mccann yes because killing them is what is needed
james mccann we need them off our land
I’m just curious if there is more violence and corruption now or during the Apartheid era in South Africa? I bet it is now!
Far far worse during apartheid why did the white man came to AFRICA.
@ATLANTIC STAR dumbest question ever….is Africa exclusive only for blacks? So Europe should be only exclusively for white population? The violence in South Africa is mostly black on black crime, whites are leaving SA soon it will be Zimbabwe 2.0
Seems obvious. All these people need lun h money. So bribes continue
You mean the worse corruption in history, huh?? I wish also I was born white, I mean..my parents would have been apartheid beneficiaries.
@lwazi Morris well you’re in luck now. You’re black and you can plunder away and your kids can reap the rewards.
I had no idea 43 murders are a lot. I live next to lavender Hill and one weekend 21 people got killed in that area. So 43 for the entire city doesn’t look to bad.
That just shows how normal this has become to us in the Cape Flats that we think like that.
Running from your house to the taxi rank, then hoping your taxi don’t get shot up at by a rival gang until you get by the train station only to spend the next 40 plus minutes next to passengers who are clear targets is really worrisome… Then to get to work where your boss (whose not from the Cape flats) screams at you that you late and you should wake up earlier and could possibly loose your job. Wake up EARLIER? JAS!!
We can’t live normal lives here.
43 for any city is a lot, but They’ll never reveal the full statistics to the international media, because if it were the death rate would climb astronomically.
🔄this is a cycle that will never stop,the police to the politician and judges they all belong to a gang they all connecting
No they cannot. Just this past weekend 27-28 July 46 people were killed. The weekend before 25 people were killed.
This needs to be fixed!
Lol if only i could move to Constantia
Taurus Izayah bro💯
No no, there’s plenty of officers, just not enough ones that ACTUALLY know the law and aren’t corrupt 😂
Coming to a European country near you thanks to all the leftist pro immigration politicians!!! 😀👍🏻
You gonna cry ?
The future of the USA if immigration is not stopped NOW
You’re an idiot if you think those gangs are not south African
Maybe if the communist ANC government didn’t have an open borders policy where the rest of the entire continent of Africa is free to pour in unchecked, we wouldn’t have such high rates of drug smuggling, crime, racial and cultural tensions and lack of jobs. Not to mention all the public services they use such as housing, medical care, electricity, education and more which are paid for and meant for SOUTH AFRICANS. Plus they are willing to work for extremely low wages, undercutting local wages and increasing South African unemployment. Close the borders.
Where are the boers that always stand with the “Khoisan”?🤔
Lol those guys aren’t khoisan they are coloured mixed with black, white and Asian people
Soo accurate question 👍…wait until black people committee crimes. they will all flood social medias with them pink faces cursing BLACK this and that. bullshit. Already some coloureds /whites are saying the “black” government is responsible for those violences happening there.. BULLSHIT. they like shifting blames when bad things done by them.
Mxm those hooligans ain’t khoisans. are those hooligans on that video looks like khoisans?? I Highly doubt. If you want to know khoisans go search them or go look them cause they live in Namibia /Zambia..not these Afrikaaners puppets.
@lwazi Morris pap for usa dollars next year boy . like zim
The Army is now witnessing the senseless killing. Gangs are not afraid of the army it is business as usual. Gangs moving into more affluent areas bcuz they have the blood money to take any area. It’s not only in the Cape Flats they are like cockroaches they everywhere. Gangs are already selling drugs in all affluent areas. Loop Street is an example of how they taking the City of Cape Town.
When are they going to deploy the army and the police to parliament!!!
You really know how to spin the real truth.
Are they killing each other in Parliament?
JESUS YOU DEAL WITH THIS PLEASE.
Ek kanie. 🤦🏻♀️💔
It sucks so badly to see the coloured community in this predicament and it seems like there’s no solution or no hope for change.
the mk plan since 60 years is all minorites must leave or die as they rob you . we left we knew this 30 years ago.
The untold Mandela legacy…
What Army???
Take all gang leaders help them start legit business;they are the pillar of gangs without them the gangs will be very weak or will just follow them in doing legit business
They can’t because immediately when the army gets sent then It’s the start of a civil war between the army and the rebel forces
THE POLICE FORCE IS USELESS SO I DONT THINK THE ARMY IS GOING TO BE DIFFERENT.
Don’t worry, drugs and gang violence is a menace in every country in the world
The army won’t solve much
Does the International News Community know the true situation of the Gang Ravaged Communities. They should go back and research “Verwoerd’s” policy of Social Engineering to understand the dynamics of the violence…….. Wake Up And Smell The Coffee……..
Well it’s been a month since this video was published and the question to that answer is a resounding no. Taken from on the ground accounts of persons I know who live in the area and immediate surrounds.
I hope oneday that my coloured people can come together unite and help each other I have faith that oneday we can stand together all coloured people please unite educate and help one another our coloured people are still enslaved by the white system but if we unite and stand together we can fight our way to freedom together
freedom hhaha under marxist terrorists. they want you gone thats the plan. get a head start leave . we did .
Is this Nigeria crime now? Shame to South Africa you guys are so corrupt
South Africa is not adressing the actual problem. Unemployment is the basis of the problem but obviously sending the army in is the easier way out for politicians.
No the army won’t solve it because it’s the police who are part of the gang violence selling firearms to the gangs. Over 1400 firearms were sold to the Western Cape gangs by the police. Over 2400 people were shot with these firearms .
It’s time for PAGAD to return because the government is not going to help. The people must help themselves if they want change
happy hunting .
Government also giving them drugs, huh!!…😏😏😏. government want these people to die. government is motivating these people to leave schools and idolize gang lifestyle. wow….WHAT A government.
This army must also go in Wynberg and Cape town at parate .coz Nigerians selling drugs there day light plz
This is alota kuk! THE REAL GANGSTERS IS IN PARLIAMENT YOU IDIOTS!!!
The problem is corruption
At least during apartheid cape town was safe , somebody needs to step up
Sad thing is these gang members are to stupid to see how stupid they are…
This is the result of lack of opportunities. No matter how much security is deployed, nothing will bring effective change till opportunities are made available for people who don’t want to be in gangs
The amount of resources needed to reduce these issues the government won’t commit. This government cannot effectively manage South Africa that’s just my opinion though. It can get better we just need to have the right people and NGO’s in place to make transformative change.
South Africa needs their own Rodrigo Duterte.
No.
No
Just put them all in 1 place and let em kill themselves, we can have em do it in waves so at least we can bet on it and make some money,at least that way for once in their lives they can contribute something to society and we erradicate the pest problem, win/win
