    Murders in South Africa

     
    Dear CNN,

    Why does a story of a man being dragged behind a police vehicle make the CNN news headlines, but the stories in relation to brutal murders (approximately 45 to 50 per day in South Africa) were/are not broadcasted or did not/will not make the CNN headline news?

    Crime is out of control in South Africa and the people (all colours) are suffering. Many of these murderers were born after apartheid was abolished 19 years ago. One cannot blame apartheid for taking someone elses's life?. Please also refer to;

    http://www.thetruthaboutsouthafrica.com/p/white-genocide-in-south-africa.html

    (Please note that the above link contains explicit visual material of brutal murder scenes and it is up-to the reader to decide to visit this/these sites or not)

    The people in South africa is living in "prisons" with dogs and other forms of security to protect themselves against crime (also refer to the Oscar Pistorius's murder case).

    I want to make it very clear that this is not a racial related story, but myself, my family and millions of other black and white South African citizens were/are victims of crime!

    Kind Regards,


    Graeme Swart
