Alleged is an adjective that's used to describe things that have been claimed. It's most often used to describe an action or situation, especially a wrongdoing or crime, that someone claims happened but that has not been confirmed or proven.
Statistics are very clear. Look at the USA as an example. States with stricter gun laws and control have the highest rates of crime and violence. States that have more relaxed gun laws and control have the lowest rates of crimes and violence. Unfortunately South African laws are pro criminal pro crime. It makes sense, if upstanding and moral people were administering the country, there would be upstanding and moral laws. SA has criminals administering the country hence the pro criminal pro crime laws. Relax the gun laws and control and stop the unnecessarily long and purposefully frustrating process of acquiring a firearm and watch SA become a crime free nation….but government can’t have that.
Newzroom Afrika must get new reporters asking better questions. Do you really think people will give up their guns, with the crime rate as it is? Get real!!!
There's absolutely no way people will hand over their legal firearms. It is absolutely nonsense to hand in your firearm in a country that's riddled with illegal firearms. Own it and pray to your ancestors that you never have to use it. Make sure it is your absolute last option in any situation... BUT do not hand it back to the police. No ways.
Yes each south african who is fit enough mentally to protect themselves and there family especially since we have a large number of undocumented immigrants roaming our streets and communities. Arm ourselves to protect ourselves yes please
Criminals can possess weapons at will, but we must ASK PERMISSION to save our own lives and jump through hoops to do this legally, it's such a joke. The moment anyone points a gun at you it's an imminent threat, period.
Criminals not only carry guns, they carry guns the lawful citizen cannot obtain legally, what's the point of making automatic guns illegal when criminals still get their hands on automatic guns but civilians can't
Ok take all the guns away. How do you level the playing field with 3 or 7 attackers? Has gun free south africa ever thought of this or are they up for just call the police to bring their guns. If someone try’s to cut you off to stop you. I am expecting the worst and need to be ready. Think about it it’s not hard.
Four reasons to own firearms. 1 as a deterent to a tyranical goverment, thiusand of citzens have been murdered by thier goverments after disarment, nazi germany, russia, combodia the list goes on and on. 2. The police have been useless at protecting citzens in this country, many are criminals themselves so how do the weak and elderly defend themselves from gangs of attackers. 3. Hunting and sport shooting employee many thousands and bring in millions of revenue to the country 4. Citzens famalier with firearms can be quickly and easily be teained to defend a country againt a foreign invasion. In conclusion only the deluisional, the wannbe tyrants and the plain stupid thinks disarming law abiding citizens is s good idea.
As a black American who has been considering visiting SA but hesitating due to the crime, I totally approve this message. Until the police and government get a handle on crime, I totally approve of means of protecting yourself. These criminals seem to be the same everywhere in the world.
The sad reality is that our justice system protects criminals. The risk seems higher with a firearm, but it should be a personal decision. We are in trouble as a Country!
I’ve never heard of such a stupid question. Look how legal gun owners helped police during lockdown . So law abiding citizens must beg the criminals not to shoot them . Ja right.
All people should be allowed to owne a gun for self protection. Too many criminals are running loose in our country thanks to our usless government and lack of good police.
Yes, if you are deemed mentally fit, no if you have a criminal record, for assault..farm owner's should be permitted to own at least 1 AR, handgun, rifle, 65x55, 308 etc
That was absolutely clean self defense with no justification. As a competent conceal carry you are allowed to conduct lethal force against any unlawful attack if your life is threatened to die.
The state cannot protect me or my property with its laws, so i have no choice but protecting myself up to the moment the law can arrive to protect me, and i have the right to prevent the law being broken with force if needed.
If you remove guns from gun owner- what is next? Remove all kitchen knives , then forks and spoons? Criminals will always find something to use to commit a crime.
An antelope has horns to protect themselves from lions. People should have guns to protect themselves from criminals. Criminals run around with fully automatic weapons where civilians aren't allowed to. The best we can get is pistols or a shotgun. If anything, we should be allowed to have better weapons to defend ourselves from criminals. We allow the people WE put in power to tell us what we can or can't do. Madness
Of course congratulations to the motorists should get a medal im a gun owner shoot twice a month and carry all the time if I go to the shower I have gun in bathroom
I love the tone of this video like a bunch of children in adult from talking about adult tools. That news guy can just keep being the victim as they are doing a great job of adding to victim statistics already. Dont worry news man the government will save ya the rest of the world should be able tk save themselves.
Murder rate or premature deaths is going to skyrocket in SA if people own guns. The solution is correcting government ills, not arming people. Arming people is a foolish idea, there are more fundamental issues that need to be looked at lol.
@diamond9650 Think man! Just think! What is the government's effectiveness in Switzerland? General law enforcement? The government there serves its people and creates jobs unlike what we have here, they can't do the simplest things like keeping a city clean lol.
@@multiplier___ That is part of the point I was trying to make by the question posed - as long as the government does its job properly it is still okay if one owns or wants to own a gun, instead of saying its a foolish idea which is not as shown in the Swiss example, and instead of the blanket statements being made by some in SA that possessing a firearm is the primary problem when it really is not.
@@diamond9650 Its foolish because instead of wasting time debating gun ownership, news media should expose government and encourage people to challenge them effectively. But hey these news outlets are sell outs. They going to brainwash yall to think gun ownership is the solution to the problem when its not.
@@diamond9650 Its a foolish idea, just like all the money spent on military equipment, guns, newclear etc. No need for all that when the solution is for people to put their egos aside and learn to live in harmony and use those trillions for better things. In this case news media should effectively expose government and mobilse people to challenge government and to hold people accountable. But hey remember news outlets are sellouts. They going to do a great job brainwashing you to believe that the solution to your problem is gun ownership.
It should be a must that one owns a gun
Why are we debating this? Would they rather have those people be victims to crime, probably killed and no one would have cared
That is what they want actually while these fools cannot handle crime. Criminals are like VIPs in this society.
Fighting fire with fire will make things worse.
@@mashobane6177 That is one incorrect thing to say.
Because the Soros agenda is now using mass shootings in its anti-gun narratives to try to equate it to the mental health mass shootings in the US.
@@mashobane6177 thats how they put out bush fires or rampant forest fires.
Yes I was attacked in my kitchen at 18:20 Monday afternoon by 3 attackers and I used my gun to save myself....It absolutely protected me...
Well done 👍
Goed so hoop hulle almal is dood
Glad you had one.
You saved someone's life without knowing.
Are the bullets okay?
Why do they report "alleged hijacker"shot by gunowner?
why do they not report as hijackers ällegedly" shot by civilian.
Yes. It's funny how news agencies pick and choose to use words. It's almost as if they're trying to push certain sentiments in society.
They getting paid by soros to use certain words and GFSA
Alleged is an adjective that's used to describe things that have been claimed. It's most often used to describe an action or situation, especially a wrongdoing or crime, that someone claims happened but that has not been confirmed or proven.
@@mandlaluthuli6640 Then it is alleged for both parties. One cannot picj and choose who allegedly did what.
If the state is unable to protect its citizens then its citizens surely have the God-given right to protect themselves, their family and liberty?
Yes, yes and hell yes to owning your own gun.
i have the right to defend myself

I am heartened by the comment section. Every human has the right to keep and bear arms.
Asking stupid questions. People NEED to own guns
You are more stupid for thinking people owning guns is the solution.
@@multiplier___part solution
@@multiplier___ imagine getting killed especially with your own gun surely there are better solutions than every tom and dik owning a gun
@multiplier___ you think criminals will hand over their guns if civilians are not armed? 😂😂
@@Wilderness_summit You really think guns passed around to civilians is the solution?
Those 3 robbers wont try that again!!
😂😂😂😂😂
Well done. We should have it constitutionally fortified and teach people about how to properly use and care for firearms.
I believe we must own guns
Without doubt
I wonder if law abiding citizens could get the same deal for guns that criminals get from SAPS
Let's all buy them
I got two licensed already. Let's go!
Exactly my thought
No debate needed. Guns for self defense are a must in this country. If it's you or them, you should be able to protect yourself
Newzroom Afrika must get new reporters asking better questions. Do you really think people will give up their guns, with the crime rate as it is? Get real!!!

Even if its handed to police.It could get stolen or sold from their armory or evidence

Criminals can possess weapons at will, but we must ASK PERMISSION to save our own lives and jump through hoops to do this legally, it's such a joke. The moment anyone points a gun at you it's an imminent threat, period.
Why don't we remove the armed protection teams for politicians for a couple of years and see how it goes before we disarm law abiding citizens?
Criminals not only carry guns, they carry guns the lawful citizen cannot obtain legally, what's the point of making automatic guns illegal when criminals still get their hands on automatic guns but civilians can't
They should be handed out to law-abiding citizens for free.
Ok take all the guns away. How do you level the playing field with 3 or 7 attackers? Has gun free south africa ever thought of this or are they up for just call the police to bring their guns. If someone try’s to cut you off to stop you. I am expecting the worst and need to be ready. Think about it it’s not hard.
Its Our Right to Protect Ourself...the Firearms Control Act must be Reviewed and NGOs like Gunfree South Africa, should be Banned
Spot on!
Yes

How is this even a question? Everyone should have the means to protect themselves
Are you crazy?I will never hand over my gun,NEVER
Relax lol
@@multiplier___never,ever,ever ,ever?
The sad reality is that our justice system protects criminals. The risk seems higher with a firearm, but it should be a personal decision. We are in trouble as a Country!
We live in a violent society …. You have to be able to protect yourself from criminals.
Do you think the criminals will hand over their guns.
Guns are a necessity to responsible law abiding citizens just as it is with securing ones home with security fence or bugler gates.
I"D RATHER HAVE A GUN AND NOT NEED IT,THAN NEED A GUN AND NOT HAVE IT.
said by a famous gun philosopher😊😊😊.
Gun laws need to be relaxed. Law abiding citizens have to jump through hoops to defend themselves.
yes
Why is there so little known about the law in SA by citizens?
Since the gvt fails to disarm criminals, it should be a birthright to own a legal firearm. Of coz after assessing if the citizen is fit to own it.
I’ve never heard of such a stupid question. Look how legal gun owners helped police during lockdown . So law abiding citizens must beg the criminals not to shoot them . Ja right.
Well done the motorist !! That's what we need !
My uncle shot a guy who broke into his house dead but now my uncle is in jail now for defending himself
Licenced gun owners are not the ones commiting crime.
All people should be allowed to owne a gun for self protection. Too many criminals are running loose in our country thanks to our usless government and lack of good police.

YES YES YES
Yes, people should own guns
Gunned down? Bit emotive what?
Where are all the missing guns that are missing from sadf ?
If you remove guns from gun owner- what is next? Remove all kitchen knives , then forks and spoons?
Criminals will always find something to use to commit a crime.
Yep. I can go to builders warehouse and buy a panga. Where do they drsw the line
What is meant by a gun free society? Is it only a select few to have guns or a complete gun free?
It's a right. We won't let ourselves be in the hands of the state or criminals for our own protection
We are left to defend ourselves in SA. Very SAD!!
Glad they are sorted out🎉
why is it even a debate lmao
why is this a debate in the first place?
Debate if we must protect ourselves frm thieves n rapists 😂😂😂 our law is so useless, criminals have more rights den innocent victims.
Good job bro
Let's guess what he's angle is ........ mmmmmm it's racist. Because ?? I'm sure he'll come up with a reason
Give that man 3 bells
