Our South African people are so stupid without alcohol.They do things that un-comprehendable....
Add alcohol to the equation its a recipe for desaster....Stricter laws to obtain alcohol licenses but also the abuse alcohol cannot be used as an excuse when a adult person commits an offense...............

Our govermnent comes up with all the brightest idea's in the world but in reality they have no CLUE on what the normal South African needs....
Our people are suffering while Goverment cannot run a country......

People who make up these laws always have expensive whiskeys in their personal bars so they won't be affected at all.

If they are a business they need to be regulated. If people cannot function without alcohol, there is a name and treatment for those.
Like the idea of a home though, that I saw commented on another article similair to this one. Here we have group homes for people with mental issues that are not a danger to society. I reckon part of the profits from shebeens should go into building those buildings, since the shebeen would be nothing without the people. Lots of people drink their money away then go home to their family with nothing, that needs to be addressed too.
