Somewhere in the Future


It's 2015. The ANC has been pushing through bills like it's going to become illegal soon. One of them part of one reads as follows: 33 Object of this Part The object of this Part is to enable special measures to be taken: (a) to facilitate the granting of individual rights or interests in relation to land in town camps and community living areas; and (b) to promote economic development in town camps and community living areas. Division 2—Town camps 34 Modifying Cape of Good Hope laws in relation to town camps (1) The regulations may modify any law of the Cape of Good Hope relating to: (a) the use of land; or (b) dealings in land; or (c) planning; or (d) infrastructure; or (e) any matter prescribed by the regulations; to the extent that the law applies to a town camp. (2) A town camp is land that, at commencement, is leased primarily for residential, community or cultural purposes for White people under: To make things even worse: You will be arrested if you have a can/bottle of beer. 75B Possessing etc. liquor in alcohol protected areas (1) A person commits an offence if: (a) the person: (i) brings liquor into an area; or (ii) has liquor in his or her possession, or under his or her control, in an area; or (iii) consumes liquor in an area; and (b) the area is an alcohol protected area. Maximum penalty: 100 penalty units or imprisonment for 6 months. (2) It is a defence to a prosecution for an offence against subsection (1) if the defendant proves, on the balance of probabilities, that, when the conduct referred to in subsection (1)(a) was engaged in: (a) the defendant was in a boat that was on waters; and (b) the defendant was engaged in recreational boating activities or commercial fishing activities. The entire bill runs for ten years, why would the ANC pass a law like this? To 'protect' the white man? Or to control him? The sad fact is that even if a bill like this was passed, the general population would still do absolutely nothing. (the actual bill is being passed in Australia http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/C2011B00242/Html/Text#_Toc309643650) and while it may only relate to Aboriginal the fact of the matter is that it could in fact happen to us as well. People's 'love' of South Africa makes me sick. This 'love' is one of the reasons why they don't stand up to government. I'm not suggesting that we 'stir the pot' purely for that reason, but, that we stand up for our rights and for the rights of other minority groups here in the Cape of Good Hope. The future is what we make of it.
