Not making excuses for RSA thugs, but had this same thing happen in Nova Scotia, when at a site seers site. and back a few years, when in Ireland, was told by the proprietor of a B&B, bring in everything out of your car, you're in Ireland now, and it's full of thieves. And I live mot far from DC, and Baltimore, and sure wouldn't leave my car setting in places in those two cities.

I am sure it could happen anywhere, but South Africa way ahead on crimes!

that is so true!

I was planning on taking the lady friend on a trip to South Africa this year, from Cape Town to Pretoria, with some time in Kruger or Vic Falls. I dropped the plans due to all the crime and attack incidents in South Africa these days. There are easier places to take her for her first African trip...

Like taking her along to Zambia in the near future!

In San Francisco it is epidemic. California passed laws that you have to prove that the items stolen were worth over $950 to even have the police arrest someone. Even if they break the windows you have to prove in court that you actually locked the doors. They won't even take the fact that you pushed the lock button and the car beeped that is was locked, you have to have had more than one person actually look to see that the door locks worked.

You forgot to add that, here in California, theft of a firearm isn't a felony now, unless the gun was worth over $950. The idiots running this state have lost their collective minds.
