'An ongoing problem with no solution' - Frustration as murders on Cape Flats spike

It's up to the people of the Cape Flats isn't it?

Do they really want to see peace? Because if they do it means curfews, road blocks, random searches, confiscating illegal weapons and arresting those in possession, closing shabeens and going after drug dealers and gangsters..
Lastly, the army's intervention is needed. Cape Flats are a war zone, more people die weekly than areas where there are civil wars. Not only in the Western Cape, but Gauteng and KZN also. We must take back all the major cities and make them safe again.#capeflats

What's happening on the Cape Flats is infuriating to me, and more so: that the awful situation that it is, is being allowed to carry on like this year in and year out.

The Cape Flats have been in turmoil, why can’t military forces be allocated there? Why can’t we have specialized intelligence units in place to infiltrate the gangs and stop the violence? It’s not like Mabena and the gents have anything better to do.

Yes WE KNOW THEM, do you think we like living with them? Do you think someone could rat on a person who will be released, and come back and stay with you, wouldn't that person kill you.

SAPS has failed in the Cape Flats.
