There is a clear case indicative of the skills dearth within SAPS and therefore translates into an incompetent force as largely exemplified by the shocking conduct of many officers found on the wrong side of the law. The media needs to also come to the party by engaging constructively with the force as to elicit informed reports and articles as by and large many articles in the news are clearly meant to create a deep seated hatred and dislike for the men and women in uniform thereby making their already difficult job even harder.police do not operate in a vacuum but are part and parcel of the community and we need to feel that vibe emanating from the officers as well as the captains of the media via responsible journalism.

But at the end will dicided to meet with them after work in pub or tarvens and undermine them,Why?because when they are wearing uniform are property of country.
