Xenophobia in SA

Well now. In sunny south africa there has recently been a problem with xenophobia. What kind of problem i hear you ask?
You see the people from other african countries seem to have this idea that south africa is so cool and the promised land etc etc. So they come over in the hope of starting of a new life. Now the guys from south africa dont seem to like that. They think they stealing jobs and taking away opportunities from the real citiziens of the country.
So what have they done i hear you say? Well they beat up the poor foreigners, burn their homes etc etc. You instead of working and maybe trying to start a business, you iniative, the locals would rather go on strike at the drop of a hat, steal, murder, hijack. Just about everything they can do to avoid work.
Back to the main story. So lately, maybe the past week or the violence has been getting out of hand. So el presidente has deployed, wait for it, the army!
Great. Before you know it they going to turn on each other. And we are going to host the soccer world cup in 2010. Hope im alive to see that mockery.

Here in the usa we're supposedly getting a fence between Texas and Mexico. I think I heard it will have gaps in it for country clubs, golf courses, and properties that belong to people with friends in high places.
The issue of immigration is complex, the rhetoric tremendous, and the truth hard to know.
