GFSA Director Adele Kirsten says that corruption is worsening the problem of easy access to guns.

“We have a gun epidemic. It’s shocking, it’s tragic, and it’s preventable. And so the key issue, what we’re not doing is we’re not reducing the pool of guns that are available. Where do these guns come from? They were all once legal, they come from the legal pool. There are a number of sources of weapons, there are a number of ways in which illegal guns move from the legal market, into the illicit market.

SAFTU’s spokesperson Trevor Shaku says “Crime and sheer violence spring directly out of the worsening socio-economic conditions in our country, Southern Africa, and the world over. This socio-economic crisis is reproduced by the political economy of capitalism, in which the hoarding of wealth by 10% of the population has driven an overwhelming majority of working-class people into poverty.
