Ja Wynn, you make a valid point about the innocent until proven guilty stance. BUT I think the other way around has a WHOLE lot of implications I would rather not contemplate. Particularly for the ordinary man in the street. Example - can you imaine being locked up for drunken driving and then having to prove your innocence while courts are delayed, cases postponed etc. The possibility of bribery becoming an even greater scourge then arises etc etc. I think I prefer it this way, warts and all.

As a electorate weve just got to be more demanding and learn to boycott, toyi-toyi and demonstrate. Take a leaf from the Apartheid Struggle book on how to force change but previously "advantaged" south africans dont know how to do that collectively.

Its not easy to root it out but we should never give up and must die trying!
