S.A. Land of hope and glory or land of greed and worry?

Goeie nyt,
I have spent a number of days with my cousins and uncle in Joburg now and will be heading to Zim in the morning I have had a few opportunities to chat with people and the general consensus I have heard is that although things have changed there are men who are abusing and using the system to drive wedges between the communities. Recently to men were killed in S.A. one was killed fro what is most likely mundane reasons, he ran strip clubs and may have provided a front. The other however was killed for his very strong pro white Afrikaner stand point. While being strong in support of your culture is one thing the views he seemed to express were contrary to what this country has been moving toward and this worries me. Is S.A. moving toward bigger divisions that could lead to an even more terrible bush war or is there the possibility of reconciling the differences in a more agreeable manner. I only have a limited perspective at this moment however there seems, from those South Africans I spoke to, to be a mutual feeling of disappointment
Hamba Kahle! Until we meet again Ryan E. Hardman
