South Africa's Descent Into A New Zimbabwe

I ran across these posts. Yikes! That's some serious home security!



I live behind 14 layers of protection in a town in South Africa
🇿🇦


1) Loaded gun within reach.
2) Strategically placed panic buttons throughout the house.
3) Security gate in the hallway protecting the sleeping rooms.
4) A small dog inside the bedroom for early warning in case the dogs outside are poisoned (lucky she has dual purpose as she's my pet as well)
5) Security gates on all doors opening to the outside.
6) Burglar bars on all the windows, including those which can not open.
7) Alarm system with glass breaking and movement detection covering the inside of the entire house.
8) 2 x large dogs guarding the outside at all times (lucky they have dual purpose as they are my pets as well)
9) CCTV system monitoring all external doors and all external areas around the house including the gate and the street.
10) A 6-foot wall surrounding the property.
11) Electric fencing on top of the 6-foot wall.
12) Electric motor to open the gate without getting out of the car.
13) Electric motor to open the garage door without getting out of the car - garage connects internally with home.
14) Armed response.

Installation and maintenance of these layers of protection was/is for my own account, nothing is subsidized by the government.
 
In the last few months Iv really noticed that South Africa has become a full on police state, the amount of huge road blocks Iv been seeing and driving through and been stopped at is insane. Iv been physically stopped about 5 times in the last few months.....

It's shocking how much things can change. SA looks quite civilized in older pictures and videos. They were like other former white former English countries.

It’s not really solving the problem. If criminals see your house has so much security they will just wait outside until you leave your house then jump you to rob your purse/wallet etc.

Besides has this woman not considered moving to a safer country instead of having a million layers of security? If I had to live in a place where I needed to do all that I would just leave.

True on a surface level, although the Afrikaners wanted to preserve and protect their own heritage, not dissolve into some kind of vaguely Anglo brew (which is what usually happens to European immigrants in such countries).
