I've also had a similar experience in South Africa down to the "now I'm going to kill you white bitch" comment. The whole thing lasted 6 and a half hours of being tied up with attempted rape. They lost all the papers for rape and attempted murder when it went to trial 4 years later. Thanks for sharing this story. You are not alone.

My brothers substitute teacher in middle school lived in Africa for a time, can't remember for what. Might have been some sort of Christian thing, ya know. Anyway, she told a story once where she was at her home there and she saw some locals chase a guy down and wail on him with a machete until he died, then they picked the killer up on their shoulders in a group and paraded him around cheering. She left shortly after. I don't get it. I've seen a lot of videos of these sorts of things, it's how I found out about necklacing, the practice of putting a tire around someones neck and setting it on fire so it melts around them.

I don’t want to have my life involuntarily changed like that so drastically. If you don’t mind my asking: How did the robbing envelop? Were you able to read some signs that something was about to go down? Or are you now able to do so? What I find the most interesting is that many people who were robbed, never thought it could happen to them. Also I’m convinced it’s wise to carry some sort of weapon on one’s person. Police in my country actually advise against that, speaking of false sense of security, failing to deescalate and so on - because according to them carrying a weapon makes one lose all care for their own safety. Funnily enough they instead recommend trusting your gut feeling to avoid getting in such situations in the first place.

@@cambridgemart2075 I think it probably is a safe neighbourhood still (relatively speaking). But that doesn't stop it from also being the kind of place where you can get hijacked or suffer a home invasion ... etc. No crime-blighted part of the world is up at the danger level of the Somme, or even some more moderately dangerous war zone like Iraq ( -- and right after the invasion of that country you'd find that the more prosperous areas of Baghdad were safe on 95 days out of a 100, too), but there are more places on Earth where a hijacking that ends with a bullet in your head, as you kneel down in a sugar cane field (or whatever) is just unthinkable. It's not going to happen. Lightning doesn't strike there. But it does strike, sometimes, in e.g. Sandton. It strikes relatively often, there. Not as often as shells flew in on the Somme, but much more frequently than house invaders get to destroy lives in Edinburgh.

Your mum is so eloquent and articulated. I'm glad she survived that ordeal . She is brave ,more power to her 🙏

I can relate to your mom mentioning her calmness during the robbery. I was hi jacked in my parents driveway. My mom and 7 week old daughter was with me. There was also a crazy one running up and down demanding and acting erratically. In retrospect he was probably high on something. My daughter was on my moms lap because we had just come back from grocery shopping and my car (a little Citroen C2) was full. So she couldn’t sit in her car seat. Again in retrospect thank heavens for that because I’m sure they would have just driven off with her! They demanded we get out of the car, which I did but my mom was battling to with my daughter in her arms. The crazy one grabbed my baby’s arm roughly and she began to cry, he looked like he was just going to throw her on the ground like a piece of dirt, so I dove back into the car and grabbed her from him. The other calmer guy that was on my side dug a 9mm gun into my ribs at my sudden movement. I stood back up with my arms crisscross over my daughter on my chest and looked him in the eye and said, “You can take everything, I don’t care, but don’t hurt my baby or mother…” He nodded and I planted my gaze back onto his chest, still with the 9mm in my ribs and they proceeded to take our jewelry and handbags etc. Sometime during all this my Dad came out of the garage with all the commotion and the crazy one waived his gun at him and my Dad jumped behind his car, which was also in the driveway. I am forever grateful that they were just after my car and didn’t force us into the house. They eventually left. This all happened in Edenvale in the Avenues. The Police station is literally 500m from the house but it took the police over 2 hours to come and take our statements! Their excuse was there was no vehicle for them to drive as all of them were broken…. All 8 broken at the same time? Yeah right!!!! Anyway, I’m shaking typing this as the memory floods back. The experience changed me. My daughter is now 13years old and yes we are still living in SA. Perhaps you think us stupid for staying but we were one of those families that just could not afford to leave. We could now I suppose but my husband and I are in our mid to late 40’s and we are pretty much over the age limit for most countries. We plan to retire in the next 10years abroad. We just have to survive until then…..

Mandela's generation was quite a tough bunch, too.

Wow what a strong woman. This is a fear every son have, i cant imagine the rage if this happened to my mother.

Here's a story when I lived in SA: I'll keep this super short. I was a kid sleeping at night when my house was surrounded by a couple of armed bandits. By sheer luck, one person in the house awoke and alarmed my father who also called the neighbors. When the neighbors said they were ready, they opened up on them. Two of the trogs got hit, one died on the way to the hospital, the other lost some brain matter to the gutter and then expired. There are many more stories to be told from benign to one's like that the gardener's son was hung on a telephone cord. This guy had nothing, yet the trogs still murdered his boy. All the black women I knew were molested or raped at some point in their lives by such trogs. Saw a dude blow bloody bubbles with his nose after getting stabbed up. I'm sure there's stuff that I repress. Anyway, about the video - this story was close to my heart because my mother was held at gunpoint too and a trog attempted to murder her. Winston is super gentle, however; and escaped the jungle with no jungle in his heart. I, on the other hand, was only taught WAR by the "rainbow nation". God willing a time comes soon when all the victims can reciprocate.

@@dannyshorvoyce4456 I think it’s not so much “hate”, as it is that Leftists have made an extreme virtue out of anti racism, which manifests as a kind of bizarre black fetishization, and an extreme anti whiteness. What they hate is any kind of racial identity or solidarity for or between white peoples, or even the mere appearance of it. Meanwhile, they bend over backwards to accommodate racial identity and solidarity between non white peoples. Another motivating factor is political. Leftists/Marxists seek to disadvantage their political enemies who are most likely of European extraction. If they can cast white peoples 2nd class citizens, with the exception of their fellow white Leftists, they can control and injure their opposition. It’s a rather sick, profoundly immoral and hypocritical. Our task is to destroy and discredit this as a moral authority.
