Johannesburg Today


 

                           After Apartheid ended, the whites were so afraid they built these stone walls 
                           around their houses.   Most have barbed wire around the top like a prison wall. 
                           However, crime is very high here so it's probably a good idea.  A SA doctor said
                           Great Britain sends their soldiers here to train in the Trauma ER before they go 
                           to Afghanistan because they have so many gun shot victims everyday.                


                          These fellows are weeding each stone by hand.  Don't they have Round-up here?  
                          The unemployment is about 30% so maybe this is a way to give people a job.
