Migrants targeted in South Africa after gang rape outrage - BBC News

[@gillsangelicgoblins7056]

Rape needs to have a harsher punishment in all countries.

[@SevCaswell]

Agreed, they need either a whole life sentence, or the death penalty where is already exists in the system. Rape destroyes lives, no one who has been a victim is ever free of the trauma, so the only fitting punishment is to take away the life of the rapist.

[@1112viggo]

I believe a small guillotine should do the trick

[@moafrika8789]

The South African government needs to pay for the damages caused to women as a result of the rampant rape in the country. It is only when they feel the pain in their coffers, that they will deal with these incidents decisively because their corrupt officials won't have much left to plunder and steal.

problem with your commet, "protesting for whats right" issue here is while people are free to protest, in SA they don't just protest they destroy and instead of trying to talk and negotiate first they go straight to violent protest. sorry but protesting should be a last resort, not a first option and it should never be violent. SA seems to think that the only option is violent protest and mostly the cops don't do anything about it because that's how our government came to power.

[@garthgnc54]

I am a South African and post Covid we are being overrun by migrants. A few hundred metres from where I stay there used to be a park next to a river that was frequented by the population of this town. In the last months a colony presently numbering 80 recent migrants sprung up there turning the entire river frontage and even a substantial part of the local golf course into no-go zones. A week ago the residents of the street where I stay adjoining that park had the local police station commander there when I told him, this street is now the border between South Africa this side and crime-ridden Zimbabwe that side. Apparently the police are powerless to act against the migrants on orders coming right from the top where a cabal of alumni from the WEF Global Young Leaders now seem to run South Africa. The bottom line is that we are going to get rid of those migrants ourselves if the authorities won't do it and that day is near.

We do not have the full facts of this case but we should not jump to any conclusions, but South Africa is renowned for xenophobia especially against other black migrants into their Country.

Shameful behavior that needs to be called out!!! Especially so after the solidarity shown to them by other Africans
