The law enforcement in many African countries is indeed very corrupt. I will admit I know nothing of South Africa though.

its because all Africans are corrupt and violent.
Bit of a sweeping statement there. I know many africans and they seem fine to me, really nice people. They make bloody good caddys on a golf course to me |

When it happens in Africa, its because all Africans are corrupt and violent.
Obviously they aren't all corrupt and violent and I never said they were. But with regards to security in general, comparing Africa and the EU as being equal is ridiculous. Serious crime rates in South Africa are through the roof and its probably one of the safest countries in Africa. There have been plenty of major problems in other countries as well, Zimbabwe being a prime example. |

Yes, as ridiculous as assuming that a problem in one African nation can be generalised to the whole continent |

I never generalised across the whole continent, though the problems there aren't limited to one nation. Its a fact they have crime problems in South Africa and even the WC organisers and FIFA wouldn't deny it. |

Having been to Cape Town and driven along the Garden Route (very nice, recommended), I found SA great. Cape Town seemed as safe (or not) as any other city, and the wife and I never once felt scared or threatened. By the same token, knowing some South Africans, apparently Joburg is as dodgy as it gets! My advice, for what it's worth, is go to Cape Town, watch some football, go to the District 6 museum (see the real District 9) and drink Windhoek.
