Hi Mark
Fair comment. Well, at least as fair as mine was.
Half an hour before I read your piece, I had nearly been killed by some
yobos on the highway racing each other in a very similar way to what you
describe. No they weren't Americans, and yes it was a highway near
Johannesburg.
Lashing out at you in particular, and Americans in general was uncalled
for and I'm really sorry.

Hello John,
By the late 1990s, Johannesburg was rated as one of the most dangerous
cities in the world.

Ugly? Ugly? ugly is getting your ass whacked up by a bunch of Soweto's.
Raping, killing, torturing, robbing and looting etc.

Looks like South Africa could use some red necks but what incentive
would anyone have to gain what? Maybe you could move to Mexico City
where it's safer and continue social work.

ps If I had a flame thrower on my vette maybe I would come fry a few car
jackers for you. Yea I sure want to live where you do where the world is
free of read neck Americans.
Flamethrower now an option on S. African cars
