There is a group of misfits who are showing huge ignorance about the spirit of ubuntu.

I write this just after witnessing a large number of hooligans in Thokoza and Katlehong going on the rampage, stealing fruit and vegetables from people deemed to be foreigners. The shopping mall had to be closed .

These East Randers are just copycats of a what happened in Alex and Diepsloot.

The reasons advanced for these attacks are as shady and silly as the people who perpetuate them.

There are jobs in the job market but if you do not make yourself available others, including foreigners, will.

We have people who never search for the very scarce jobs but yet say foreigners are taking our jobs.

Some say they will never sweep floors yet they have no qualifications to show for their arrogance.

Foreigners are available to do what we do not want to be seen doing. Is that their cardinal sin?

If these foreigners increase the levels of crime it is the work of law enforcement to lock them up and throw away the keys.

When the history of South Africa is written there will be a huge blot of human rights abuse on our copybook.

The xenophobia being perpetuated today is as bad as apartheid was. It is a crime against humanity to vent your anger against people who housed us during out struggle.
