I post twice in one day when I get angry…

I like having criminals in government.
No wait. I don’t.
But over 67% of South Africans sure do.
What bothers me about this…
No one else seems bothered.
Why aren’t South Africans as angry as I am?
15 years of ANC rule has left SA with broken promises, crime and corruption. Will Zuma spare the country from another 5 years of detriment? Doubt it.
This is bullshit and no one gives a damn. Get angry. I have a US passport. I can leave when I choose. Not everyone can. And it seems as if thinking South Africans have just rolled over. Maybe they don’t care.
Maybe it’s not my fight. Maybe I shouldn’t care either. Maybe I should just leave.
And maybe, just maybe I will.

I feel bad for you.
I don’t know whether I’m angry or sad or terrified.
I know what I am. I’m helpless. Or that’s how I feel.
And that makes me feel angry. And sad. And terrified.

I don’t know how I would feel in your situation. Though you can tell you care about the country and the people who live there, so that makes you large hearted and POLITICAL!
I shrug my shoulders at this, cause I really don’t have much to offer…
And I think after my absense that I am now caught up with all your posts I missed. 🙂

It does make me angry. It makes me livid and scared and sad.
But if I let it get to me…it’ll REALLY get to me. And I can’t handle it.
