How do you feel about xenophobia??  | |  For all those who do not know ... xenophobia is criminal act(s) against foreigners in your country.
I asked because . . . well I am a South African and I am disgusted by the actions of my fellow South Africans towards foreigners in this country. The past two weeks they have killed them, destroyed and burnt their houses. They claim that foreigners take their jobs and they want to take over their country ... how stupid is that?? I don't know about you people but disappointed to think how far we come from as a country. Please share your views, I would like to hear what the mylotters think about this situation. . .

 mamuzo (141) | 4 months ago | i wish it was as easy as just explaining to them about this situation. It has gotten out of hand and it's spreading across the country. My take on this obviously is that they are no reasoning at all, they are venting their frustrations yes but have they considered trying to find solutions to their problems before killing innocent lives???? Take the job issue for instance ... Some foreigners are very much business minded and they come to SA and create more jobs for everyone who needs one, some come to SA and they appreciate anything to help them make some kind of living and they are even willing to do jobs that some South Africans do not want to do - garage/fuel station attendants, car parking attendance, road cleaners, and flee marketers. If only they can realize that killing and chasing these poor souls out of our country is not the solution to their petty problems!!! | |

| | 2.  bojangles88 (536) | 4 months ago |  I have visited South Africa, and although many Afrikaners snubbed the idea of speaking English to me I didn't find too much hassle. The main problem I found where between South Africans themselves, of course white and black. I think it's stupid for all of this trouble to come from people being 'different' whether it's skin colour, language or culture that differs...

| mamuzo (141) | 4 months ago | Hi there, I'm sorry i have been offline for the past 3 days! Thank you for your comment. It is a sad thing that South Africa is going through right now. I so much believe that we are past the "black and white" issues and that we are civil and good to each other despite the pigments of our skins and now xenophobia kicks in. These people are our brothers and sisters and we are treating them like animals! Why????
Yes, a lot of South Africans have something to be angry and frustrated about. Yes, there is lack of employment, lack of good housing and the inflation rate is not helping the situation. People are frustrated and they are venting their frustrations, but to who and how is the question. Foreigners have not taken jobs from no one, they have not taken anyone's house, they are just here to struggle with us and earn a living one way or another. | |
