As a white South African farmer, I can confirm that the farm murders are indeed a real issue. However, it’s important to note that they occur in waves rather than being a continuous onslaught. There have been instances where multiple killings have taken place daily for weeks on end, followed by a sudden decrease in frequency. Additionally, the killings tend to be concentrated in specific areas at certain times.

A few years ago, my neighbour was killed in a farm attack. His wife was severely beaten up. The attackers dragged him outside to execute him, but in the struggle, he suffered a heart attack and died before they could shoot him.
The attackers intended to burn his wife alive, but their son unexpectedly arrived at their home, causing the attackers to flee.
Since he died before they could kill him, the police refused to open a murder case, claiming that his death was due to natural causes.
Holy fuck.
I wasnt doubting that it ever happened. Just have always been curious how much of it is just media sensationalism. Thanks
The media underreports the actual violence and severity of these attacks.
Well, I can only go by how its presented here in the US, and its usually in a way that gives the impression that its 24/7/365 mass murder. The same way inner city violence is portrayed here. I know first hand that is bullshit, so always assumed the same about the SA issue.
The US may sensationalise, but the South African media often covers up and refers to it as “allegedly” or “allegations” when it is a widely known fact.
Thats actually worse than the skewed reporting over here since it affects ya'll directly, not us.
That's true, the lack of reporting here is an attempt to prevent a nationwide uproar similar to the “Black Monday” protest on October 30, 2017. During that protest, there was a countrywide march against farm attacks. The communists in the government were not pleased and were surprised to find that whites could still stand up for themselves.
By running away as refugees? Nah they just grifters trying to get a fast ticket to the USA.
You don't even need to prove persecution to apply, you can just apply for refugee status
I wasn’t referring to those fleeing as refugees. You know we shoot farm attackers when we catch them, which is why the police rush to scenes to save their comrades. I bet you don’t hear that in the news.
That's because when the case is in court they have to say allegedly or allegations otherwise that's public disparity on a suspect without proving anything.
You should know this
You misunderstood me. I wasn’t referring to the suspects; I was referring to the act of killing white farmers, which they claim are only allegations.
