All this bullshit about being *positive about SA* and ignoring Julius Malema is all a load of bullshit, if you ask me. Both these approaches only continue to promote the idea that the best ways to deal with a situation like this is to basically bury our heads in the sand and hope for the shit storm to blow over.

Julius Malema was given the freedom to do a large amount of damage in our country over the past two weeks and this reflects very badly on our current leadership. The current government has finally acted, but in my opinion their actions were a case of – too little, too late.

It is my opinion that the public outcry’s and media coverage on Julius and his actions is what forced the governments hand in acting on the “Julius Situation”. 

I promise you it was not the fact that the people said positive things about the country. And if we and the media had chosen to completely ignore Julius, it would have made it that much easier for the government to also ignore the situation.

I don’t know about you but I was ready to march to Parliament, throw dustbins over in the streets and set tyres on fire over the situation…..

What I am not ready to do is ignore the situation or bullshit myself about being positive right now, that is not what this situation needed. It needed people to stand up and say “Enough is Enough”!
