THE OSCAR TRIAL AND VIEWS ON OTHER NEWS

-

HAS this woman (Carole) become judge, juror and Oscar’s executione­r? I am a woman who suffered abuse at the hands of my late. I refuse to by a cynic. I refuse the “one size fits all” syndrome. OSCAR deserves an Oscar award for telling lies. Joy H, East London TRUTH asks why Oscar did not press the panic button? I would suggest because he had role-played firing his gun. That is what he visualised doing. He practised shooting with great enthusiasm! So when he felt provoked or threatened for whatever reason he instinctiv­ely reached for his gun and pulled the trigger. “Be careful how you think, your life is shaped by your thoughts” – Prov 4. Justice4re­eva WHY did Reeva want to say “I love you” when she felt sad, humiliated, scared? Why do we pursue destructiv­e relationsh­ips? Oprah has warned us for years to “heed the red flags, not to look for love in the wrong places”. When people show you who they are, believe them the first time! “Bitch don’t kill my vibe.” Love doesn’t live there! Love doesn’t hurt. Love is nurturing. Love is a safe place to be! Libra IVAN Smith, my observatio­n is that he first tried to get at Reeva by kicking the door in anger, then he shot her and when he heard no more screams, he broke the door with the bat because he realised

what he had done. Reader WHAT happened to forgive and forget; they PAID their fines, unlike Jacob Zuma and Nkandla. These are big projects best handled by experts. C Brent WCMI you lost the Plett developmen­t. Why not take it to PE? We really need a waterfront developmen­t. I would be the first one to rent space from you. J T King BANNING of large companies after already receiving huge fines is totally ridiculous, when price fixing is rife in the building trade for both big and small contractor­s. Realist TODAY’s WP, the word “helmed” is used in an article on page three. What on earth does it mean? As far as I know there is no such word in our English language. Brian Stone IT is big thanks to us to get these kind of findings and we wish government can act very strong (meaning ban). 1. Selfcentre­d. 2. Selfish, legacy of exploitati­on, not transforma­tive . . . These ultra-white conservati­ves, they pay 60 sense [cents?] in a project of R1.7-billion. You just imagine where they are taking us to.
