Electioneering, pregnancy mistakes, sport funds

POLITICS

Julius Malema and the EFF want votes from Indians. What happens after the elections is anybody’s guess.

To all the people who think the ANC gives them RDP houses, grants, free water etc. The truth is no political party gives you things for free, that money the government uses, comes from every citizen. Every person who works and every person who buys anything pays tax or VAT – that’s the money they use to pay your grants etc. So don’t let any political party lead you to believe they give you free things. It’s your money they use. | buzz

It is laughable when Advocate Jiba states her bank accounts can be subject to a forensic audit to trace the bribe money she was allegedly paid by Bosasa. Illicit payments will not make their way into bank accounts. Rather complete a living standards test. | Tony Bennett

ODDS AND ENDS

On Saturday morning while driving to Suncoast, I came across a group of cyclists riding four or five abreast in the cycle lane occupying the entire lane. This was at 7.30am and the boards for the cycle lane state it’s a cycle lane until 6.30am. Has the time changed?

I would like to know what is wrong with people making forums to protest at other race groups about their functioning? I think people who do this are jealous of the success of other race groups! They are the racists.

Pregnancy mistakes twice invites censure. Nonsense at the age of 20 she already had a baby. After having the baby the hospital or the clinic would have advised her of contraceptives. She knew after 9 months the baby will be born. Teachers are not there to teach about when to have a child and when you have a child what precautions to take. Try taking the place of a teacher. Being a mother, one has no excuse for what has been done. | T.G.

Daily News, Monday February 25. Comment on teen pregnancy is spot on. If the “sperm donor” can be found, hold him accountable too.

Women are responsible for themselves. If they are sexually active they should be responsible enough to be on the pill. What about the morning after pill. It’s even more disgusting if it is the second or third pregnancy. Men only want to empty their tanks, women have to be dumb not to know this. Be responsible for yourself.

Why are Indians always being attacked by these racist groups? Why don’t they build schools which have been destroyed, so that they can employ all black teachers and staff and use their service providers at those schools? They know Indians work hard and develop a solid structure which they just want to take and destroy. Why doesn’t this group attack the schools like Crawford, Eden and Clifton? It’s because the rich blacks send their kids to those schools. Groups like this will never be taken to task because this government is not a democratic one but a racist one.

Why is the Caster situation so one-sided and so much money is given from the Department of Sport for one person to fight? These monies can be used for upcoming youngsters considering her age? If she wanted to fight why not use companies that she gets paid from/ sponsors? Why has the situation of the other female athletes who have to compete with her not been considered? Why does she not want to compromise and prove that by dropping her levels to that of the majority of other women. Her performance will be the same as when she is winning now? Why does she get to choose when to be viewed female and when not to? Where are the other women’s human rights. The colour card is becoming boring and is like a stuck record.

Why the questions about land invasions? We have this sort of action before elections every time. New shacks appear like magic overnight.
