@Jon_M_Berger @uNcuncuza @grok With many more asylum seekers getting approval in the USA during the same time. There are 2 pathways to get refuge in the USA. You are focusing on the one you don't approve of.

@Jon_M_Berger @uNcuncuza @grok Nope, anybody from any country can still go to the US and request asylum, these programs that process people outside the US, come and go with each US administration. International law does not determine who the US do these programs for, US law does.

@lyonleblanc @uNcuncuza @grok The fact that the Trump administration may consider them to be refugees does not make them refugees under international law. The fact is that the US is effectively only recognising South Africans as refugees makes it plain that their refugee programme is BS.

For someone concerned with human rights, that is a pretty foolish statement. Under the US Refugee Act of 1980, the people taking part in this program are real refugees in the USA. Unless you think the Russians, Cubans, Iranians, Afghans, and Vietnamese people who took part in similar programs are also 'fake refugees'?

@lyonleblanc @uNcuncuza @grok I can admit that crime in SA is horrendously high, and that Joburg, in particular, is dangerous. So too is Cape Town, and many other places in the country. What you can't accept is that your mate (the fake refugee) might actually be a neanderthal.

@Jon_M_Berger @uNcuncuza @grok I know how dangerous Joburg is, and so do you. You just can't admit it, or admit that some people are not willing to risk their lives for entertainment. I didn't invent the crime and a reason is not an excuse. 5 of the 10 most dangerous cities are in SA.

@lyonleblanc @uNcuncuza @grok We all do. But we don't stop living. If your friend didn't go to the theatre in 35 years, it's because it wasn't his thing; don't invent some BS excuse on his behalf.

@Jon_M_Berger @uNcuncuza @grok I don't go to Joburg CBD at night, ever. During the day, only if I have to. I advise everyone that doesn't know Joburg to do the same, and never follow Google maps. My life is worth more than some show on a stage.

@uNcuncuza @Jon_M_Berger @grok No, it is just what people do when they can't give facts to support their argument. I don't go to Joburg Theaters because I don't want to die getting there or getting home. It's too dangerous, that's it.

@mignon_ette_ @Jon_M_Berger Yeah, in SA we murder more people in 2 days than mass shooters in the US kill in a year. We actually murder more people a day than most conflict zones !! Viva rainbow nation!!

@mignon_ette_ @Jon_M_Berger At least that shooter was arrested and is now serving life in prison. We don't even know the name of this shooter 12 years later, and no record of him ever being sentenced.

The president of South Africa, who had millions in cash stolen and hidden inside a couch, is currently at the Black Rock Investment Summit trying to explain how he will use Trillions constructively.

@Jon_M_Berger I'll answer for you, because you know the answer but don't have the balls to say it. There are no goal posts, just facts.

@Jon_M_Berger So you don't use street parking, you obviously don't use public transport, and you definitely don't walk there. Why not? Be honest, if you can.

@lyonleblanc I go. Quite often, actually. In recent years, I've been to the Market Theatre (parking underground at the Newtown Junction Mall), the Linder Auditorium, the Theatre on the Square, the Teatro at Montecasino, and the Chris Seabrooke Music Hall at Wits.

@lyonleblanc If Pieter didn't go to a theatre (or a concert hall) for 35 years, it wasn't because of crime. I'd be keen to know what kept him await from such spaces.
