I know a few white south africans, story is that they regularly pack guns in the car just in case they are attacked.

If you have a handbag, you lock it in the boot, you don't leave it on the back or front seat

Apparently, the local thugs place no value on life, so if they need to take yours away for a few quid.... they will

Great eh
