So i was supposed to be blogging about Breaking Dawn and giving you guys an update on the bird sounds, but my heart is not in it after hearing the secracy bill here in S.A was voted in today, this bill basically denies the media freedom.
To those who were around during the apartheid era and to those who know about or have studied apartheid you will be familair with laws similir to the one passed today. Laws that basically denied people freedom and imprisoned people who spoke against the government for as long as 25 years. Is S.A going full circle?
I personally don't know but find it incredibly ironic that the people who fought for our freedom during the apartheid era are now blatantly denying its people and especially the media a form of freedom that was also previously denied to them.
So the big question is what are the people in power hiding? Is this just a big tactic to cover up their stealing of our peoples tax money and ultimately their vast amount of corruption? Because i personally see no other justifiable reason to pass a law that denies people something that was stated in the consituition...
We all know that this country is far from perfect and riddled with corruption lets just hope that we still have people willing to fight against this bill and keep on exposing the government for the corrupted and twisted people they seem to be, because if we don't I fear the worst for a country that is brimming with potential to be on par with first world countries and all together one of the greatest countries in the world.
would love to hear other peoples opinions
xoxo
