Agree

Crime is a crime, already we have min and max sentences. I don't understand the message; do we encourage criminals to choose their victims carefully. Harsher sentences for any crime would be appropriate deterrent

''Hard to sleep knowing there are angry men looking out deep in the streets' prayforsouthafrica 2 verses from the 'book' by s.chilledboy_za Please give an ear and share out to the world..!!! Genre: Hip-Hop Title: Meanwhile inside Laboratories(LA) 🚨

Life Sentences must be life sentence if they are serious he and Ronald Lamola Must Remove this thing of 25=1life sentence with immediate effect if they are serious in rooting out murder, rape &harrowing incidences in our country killing of any human species/beings.

What about those who are killing people because they are not South Africans by birth?

Something is terribly wrong with the SABC. Of all the images available, why use such an image of the President CyrilRamaphosa? Who is the pictures editor?

Let us start with all who have killed Women and Children. If it happens that it was a husband, let it be even harsher. Same if it was a parent who killed their children, let it be the same

Other killings are lesser than the other? We are killed for cellphones, but when we call for thugs to be killed we are told that life of a thug is very important than the life of ppl living honest life.

Tribalism as well. U baba Sokhela called me by names. Shangani. Silwane.

We dont have to do anything about killing men. That's okay but killing women, that's terrible. Killing is killing. Full stop. The high rate of murder in this country is what needs to be addressed, irrespective of the gendet of the victim.

How is that even a solution towards stopping such barbaric humen behavior mr president

I just hope when he talk about harsh sentences,he doesn't mean this gimmick of 25yrs with possibility of parole (called life sentence)!Life should mean life.Kuba siphila once!

And what is the sentence for CORRUPTION

Death sentence or freedom? The only choices available. The masses voted for freedom. gofigure

What about killers of man, the carjackers and the ones involved in cash in transit heists? I think cr is just telling us what he think we want to hear

And killers of foreigners

What is the sentence for killing a man! Or man's life means fokol!?

How about harsh sentences for all killers you poephol CyrilRamaphosa

And Human Traffickers? Illegal immigrants? drug dealers?

Car hijackers should be included in that category

No Mr president, let's not be selective any murder there must be a harsh sentences.

Someone please tell CyrilRamaphosa that he is the Executive President... He needs to start exercising his vast powers instead for calling for harsher sentences!

What about us man
