What a pleasure it will be when we can debate topics such as Sprinbok team selection without feeling like just because we have an opinion we are going to be judged as "typical" whites/blacks/coloureds.

Great thoughts! I know that it's in Afrikaans, but I expressed some of my thoughts on (inter alia) crime and SA here: http://boerinballingskap.wordpress.com/2007/04/27/oor-afrika-afrikane-en-afrikaners/ I hope that the Afrikaans doesn't make my thoughts to limited to the wider audience. I know that SA has 'n chequered racial history an that it's not easy, but I would SO MUCH like to move BEYOND race in this debate! As you so rightly point out: Crime affects EVERYBODY, in disregard of race. The same goes for "transformation" etc. Are we a nation that dwells in the past or looks to the future? Unfortunately the SA Government often chooses the former... Hi!
