Are gathering of great minds throughout the world. 29 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: I'm told about the one countries I hear and the 30 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: numerous other business are also represented. Others are trying to 31 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: sell themselves to South Africans whilst mainly South Africa is 32 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: selling itself to oh Well, It's trades to the rest 33 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: of the world, saying that we are a preferred investment destination, 34 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: not just on the African continent but globally because we've 35 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 1: got a stable democracy. Yes, we have some problems, but 36 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: generally we know what we are doing. Things are moving. 37 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: Of course, we faced with issues of corruption every now 38 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: and then, but on the main in the main we 39 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: are truly driving a steady ship and no one has 40 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,119 Speaker 1: any concert should have any concern about the investments being 41 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: misplaced of course, internally, we'll raise various other issues, but 42 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: it's important to note that when you look at the 43 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: SADC region, we are very stable. When you look on 44 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: the African continent, we are very solid. And maybe we 45 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: should give you way it's worth. And I'm opening the 46 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: lines to hear from you, and it could be that 47 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: I'm HIPing praises where they are not deserved. I'm happy 48 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 1: to be challenged on that one, and I'm happy for 49 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: you to also express I know many of you work 50 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: in that investment space as well, and some of you 51 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: are looking for investment for your particular projects. Could be 52 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: that you want to build a shopping mall, or you 53 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: want to be involved in a rail project, or it 54 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: could be that you are also concerned about various infrastructural opportunities. 55 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: I mean, solar is a very big one, and I'm 56 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 1: thinking that there will be various investors who are thinking 57 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: of entering that solar space alternative energy space in order 58 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: to make a difference in the energy space. But we'll 59 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: touch on that between ten and eleven o'clock in the 60 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: next hour or so. We'll touch on that will speak 61 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: to a number of people. I do want you to 62 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: stay tuned for that discussion. I know it's not fashionable. 63 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: I know it's not sexy. I know it's not about 64 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: a minister court doing something. But these conversations, I assure you, 65 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: they are at the heart of what puts rents and 66 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: sense in your pocket. The company that you work for, 67 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: chances are it desperately needs investment. It needs to trade 68 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: with other companies locally and internationally in order for it 69 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: to grow, for you to be promoted. And speaking of promotion, 70 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: by the way, in the World of Work feature, we 71 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 1: will be speaking about promotions. Who gets promoted? Is it 72 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: the favorites in the office? Is it someone who's got 73 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,919 Speaker 1: who has a bride with a boss? Is it people 74 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: who never question anything at all at worker? Those are 75 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: those the ones that get promoted. That will come in 76 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: our world of Work feature much later on, and on 77 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: our wellness feature as well. 78 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 2: We'll touch on how can you live wrong? How can 79 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 2: do you really want to live longer? 80 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: I suppose that's a question, right, but nonetheless to live longer, 81 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: you know, so we will we'll touch on that much 82 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,559 Speaker 1: later on the show. But now between ten, between nine 83 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: and ten open line, anything goes. 84 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: I always edge you. 85 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: I always truly edge you to participate on the open 86 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: line simply because this is where we get to hear 87 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: what's going on in your various neck of the woods 88 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: and where you stay, where you work, the places that 89 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: you frequent, what takes place there, stories that don't make 90 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: it to the media. I'm keen to know about them. 91 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: So the open line, I love keeping it very very 92 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: open for for for those things. And the number two 93 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: dial oh one one eight eight three seven two one 94 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: eight eight three oh seven oh two. But I'll kick 95 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: off with some of my thoughts and ideas on the 96 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 1: open line. You to remember that last week there was 97 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: a lawyer who was gunned down and this was close 98 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: to the CIS in a central Johannesburg. This left goosebumps 99 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: and chills on various people because we thought what is 100 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: going on. It was not the first, by the way, 101 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: and it seems as if the legal profession is under 102 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: attack of sorts. I'm worried about the plight of lawyers 103 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: who are shot dead, who are handling sensitive cases, who 104 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: are involved themselves in sensitive cases, and many of them 105 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: are shot dead. Many of them don't even make it 106 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: to the media. We don't even get to speak about them. 107 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: And I was just thinking about this and saying, what's 108 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: going on in the legal fraternity that we don't know? 109 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: Have criminals become even more brazen doing it with impunity, 110 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: they do not care they should and kill officers of 111 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: the court. It could be that you're a lawyer, you 112 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: work in court, it could be that you work in 113 00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: the legal fraternity. How remprant? Is this my face that 114 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: we don't touch enough on these issues? And so I 115 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: was just wondering about about this matter from you, especially 116 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: in the legal fraternity. Does it happen often or is 117 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: it one of those and lawyers being targeted by criminals? 118 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: Targeted by criminals, lawyers shut down? 119 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: How do you do it? 120 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: There's a case actually speaking of which there's a very 121 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: interesting case that will be taking place tomorrow at the 122 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: Palmbridge Court and it's also a very sensitive one where 123 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: a liquidator of Arthur Kaplin Jewelers was appointed by a 124 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: firearm by a by someone who did not want their company, 125 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: by someone who did not want their company to be liquidated, 126 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: and as she was there trying to do her job, 127 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: she was assaulted and she was pointed with a firearm 128 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: by someone who's extremely dangerous at least according to the 129 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: newspaper reports the way. It reports that this assailant or 130 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: this individual alleged assailant, this individual has about ten cases 131 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: opened at the Sentence police station, and so they were 132 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: fearing that the lawyer's the Lucidata who's also a lawyer 133 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: in attorney Leila Mantala, is also in danger as the 134 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: court will hear the matter tomorrow at Pumbridge. And I'm 135 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: raising this because often we are so reactionary. I mean, 136 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: we have forgotten about the lawyer that was shot down 137 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: last week. We have moved on and forgotten about it. 138 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: We shouldn't be numb to those things. We shouldn't be 139 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: fatigued by such stories. We should always be shocked and 140 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: be injected to action, and we should be odd, we 141 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: should be horrible ought by all these shootings. What's happening 142 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: in the legal fraternity? Why are lawyers being shot down 143 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: like that? Does it raise a bigger issue of having 144 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: designated gun free zones in the country. I had some 145 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: meeting last week kept one of the hotels in Sentin 146 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: with some colleagues and associates, and we were somehow shocked 147 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 1: by the number of people who were working around in 148 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: that hotel which is just around here in cent and 149 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to mention it because I don't want 150 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: to create a nasty buzz around it. But as we're 151 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: having a meeting there were really taken aback by a 152 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: number of people who were armed walking around in that 153 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: hotel and you could see that they're not security, they're 154 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: not the police, but they are just carrying guns, armed 155 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: with guns and moving around whilst some of us are 156 00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: just having meetings. That is extremely dangerous. We have designated 157 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: gun free zones like malls. We should say a mall, 158 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: no guns in a mall, what are you doing with 159 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,439 Speaker 1: a gun? Unless you're a security a cop? What are 160 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: you doing with a gun? Licensed or not? Keep it 161 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: in your car? It doesn't belong in a mall. A 162 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: hotel no guns, What are you doing in it? With 163 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: a gun in a hotel? Should we be strict and 164 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: insist on a gun free zones in South Africa? And 165 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: we're not talking too much about it on EWN. Earlier 166 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: on in the bulletin, you might have had Sphiso alluding 167 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: to the fact that there will be a match in 168 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: Pretoria this morning and that match is a huge protest 169 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: against what is what took place the coronation of a 170 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: Nigerian king, and I say coronation of course in air 171 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: quotes of someone from Nigeria who has coroinated in the 172 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: Eastern Cape. Yesterday the Eastern Cape was a bus with 173 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: activity regarding that. Apparently this morning the match is now 174 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: here in Pretoria. You might have heard a number of 175 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: people saying that we are disrespected as South Africans because 176 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 1: foreign nationals, and in some instance illegal foreign nationals come 177 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: to South Africa and do as they please. Some are 178 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: asserting to that effect. Some people are saying we need 179 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: to be more stringent in applying our laws by laws 180 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 1: than any other laws to make sure that illegal immigrants 181 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 1: are not doing as they please in South Africa. 182 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: We've had this battle you and I before. 183 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: And of course it needs a bit of revision. We 184 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: need to look into it and say what do we do. 185 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: I'd like to hear the solutions from you. How do 186 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: we handle this matter, especially of the coronation of a 187 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: supposed king who is Nigerian in South Africa. I don't 188 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:04,479 Speaker 1: imagine Ambeedi or a Zulu a crossa individual from royalty 189 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 1: going to be coronated in let's say, in Kenya or 190 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: in China and declaring themselves a king in China. I 191 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: think maybe the word disrespect has got some resonance in 192 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: that scenario. 193 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 2: But what do we do? 194 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: I really want to hear solutions from you, because I 195 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 1: know you're enraged. Many of you at least are enraged 196 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: by some of these things. 197 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: But what do we do? What are the solutions? 198 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: How do we regain respect that we have lost? 199 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 2: Again? Respect is in air quotes. 200 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: You can't see me, I know, especially if you're not 201 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: catching us live on YouTube, you won't be able to 202 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 1: see me as I raise my fingers to express the 203 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: air quotes. 204 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 2: What do we do? 205 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: What are some of the solutions that we could? How 206 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: do we apply the law efficiently? But how do we gain? 207 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: Most importantly, because is one thing, but gaining the respect 208 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: of those who are now disrespecting us is something different. Altogether, 209 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: is a protest much enough? We would have forgotten about 210 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: the protest much on Saturday, well not even Saturday, on Thursday, 211 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: because it's good Friday, long weekend, we would have forgotten 212 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: about that. 213 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 2: We really would have. 214 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: We would have moved on into the Holy week and 215 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: for others, not for everyone. I'm sensitive to that as well. 216 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: So we would be looking at good Friday, Holi, Thursday's Easter, Saturday, 217 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: Sunday and Monday. We would have forgotten about this much. 218 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: We'll be enraged again once there's a story in the 219 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: media about foreign nationals who are supposedly disrespecting us. 220 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 2: That's when we'll be enraged again. 221 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: But in the meantime, we will allow them in the 222 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: back of our yards to run Spazza shops. Right, we 223 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: are much, but you are the one who's allowing them, 224 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: and rightly so, rightly or wrongly so for survival means 225 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: you need to make a living. Perhaps, but we must 226 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: be I suppose away and conscious of the hypocrisy in 227 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: all of that. So let me open the lines oh 228 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: one one eight eight three oh seven O two oh 229 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: one one eight eight three oh seven O two.

What 272 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 4: now we're still going to I was now going to 273 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 4: get to terrified and so you I still work as 274 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 4: a chrisk this that and the other next person as 275 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 4: a doctor. Doctor is a grisk. Next thing, it's a priest. 276 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 4: Why should you have specific catchpositive people that get killed? 277 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: You move on before before you move on to the 278 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: next point, before you move into the next point. So 279 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: the catalyst, uh is just to introduce a broader subject. 280 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: We mentioned a lawyer because it was in the news 281 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: and it was a massive thing last week. But feel 282 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: free to mention plumbers who are also being killed. Feel 283 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 1: free to mention cleaners, teachers who are being killed. It's 284 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: a catalystm it, don't read too much into it. The 285 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: bigger issue here is the fact that guns are used 286 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: and brazenly so by criminals to shoot down people that 287 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: they disagree with. South Africa has become a country where 288 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,679 Speaker 1: you are even afraid to disagree with anyone. People are 289 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: killed for tenders. You're right, people are killed for various 290 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: other things. For someone's girlfriend. You're now dating someone's girlfriend, 291 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: you'd be killed for that. So let's not be obsessed 292 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: with myopic issues, Semi. We've got a serious problem. Let's 293 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: that was just a catalyst. The bigger issue is that 294 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: guns are being used to target individuals brazenly. So there 295 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: is the problem. Go ahead, Samy, I'm listening to you 296 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: to confute your point. 297 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, the problem is CRIMINALI have. We have poor source, 298 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 4: poor police into sources. If you go to other police, 299 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 4: other priests are around around the around the world. You 300 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 4: get police office at this block in South Africa, we 301 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 4: only have one police off suffer every four undred ten two, 302 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 4: four hundred and sixty press at Ascan citizens and people 303 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 4: could these type of crimes because they know they'll they'll 304 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 4: never get caught. That's the problem that you. 305 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: Have put, Yes, Semi from Centurion, much appreciated. You're on 306 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 1: seven oh two and it's twenty six after nine. 307 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 7: Africa is premier investment platform, The Clements Manya Tela Show 308 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 7: live from the sixth South Africa Investment Conference on seven 309 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 7: o two. 310 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 2: Just as you enjoy back, thanks for calling, Hope, you good, Yes. 311 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 8: Money Tabo and your listeners. I think we name onto 312 00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 8: collectively approach until the situation had on. There's a say 313 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 8: that the in the justice system that you're proving innocent 314 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 8: until proven guilt. Now the issue of the Nigerian king, 315 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 8: we must not validate or authenticate that the whole concept 316 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 8: of a Nigerian king. 317 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 5: I think the media must also contribute towards this old 318 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 5: saga by referring and downgrading this whole thing, referring to 319 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 5: the incident and the person as the so called, the 320 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 5: so called, the so called because the matter is yet 321 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 5: to be validated through the court and it's been challenged 322 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 5: and we all can see that it is not a 323 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 5: method that is being accepted generally by the entire society 324 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 5: and the nation within the country. So I think it's 325 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 5: important that the media does as in this instance by 326 00:19:55,560 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 5: referring to this as the so called Nigerian I'm not 327 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 5: sure whether you may think that I'm overreacting. 328 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no, I think you one hundred percent right. 329 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: I did try to also add the exactly what you're 330 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: saying to when I was referring to him, that the 331 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 1: supposed and the so called. I didn't say so called, 332 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 1: I said suppose it. But you one hundred percent right. 333 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: How we frame things through our words is very important 334 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 1: because that matters, and we do not necessarily want to 335 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: legitimize someone. My last point supposedly doing something wrong, Yeah. 336 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, no thanks. My last point is that we the 337 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 5: rise of vigilantism in the whole world is as a 338 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 5: result of sales state. I think similarly you have had 339 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 5: the incidents where things we start liking different pieces, you know, 340 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 5: the thing of looting of the molds and the you 341 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 5: know for them, this thing is heading towards the direction 342 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 5: and we cannot sit down and fold our arms when 343 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 5: people are peacefully marching and they get to be attacked 344 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 5: by the so called the Nigerian arroga and Nigerian illegal 345 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 5: immigrants in they can't you see. So I think it's 346 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 5: very important to that the state does step up their game. 347 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: Those thank you, no, no, appreciate them.

This thing for Nigeria, Nigerian king 441 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 13: is disrespectful. They seem like you go to someone's yard 442 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 13: and tell them that this is my property. Because that's 443 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 13: very very very wrong, very very wrong. The law mistake 444 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 13: is cost. This is running round. 445 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 11: Back about the notion that there's a king means the 446 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 11: supposed to be a kingdom. So yes, if we have 447 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 11: a leaning king of Nigeria, Malawi or anywhere in the world, 448 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 11: so where are they leaning from? 449 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 2: That's my question? 450 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and I suppose those are the issues. So 451 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: where's your kingdom? And why are you coronated on foreign land? 452 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: And that has raised some issues that have always been 453 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: here with us in South Africa, and I'm just wondering 454 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,120 Speaker 1: there must be a thin line between that and a xenophobia, 455 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: And I'm wondering how many times do we tread and 456 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 1: straddle that line, that very thin line of being a 457 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: patriot and being xenophobic. The rhetoric, some of it was 458 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: a bit worrying because as we all know, and I 459 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: know I'm going to get my head chopped off for this. 460 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,959 Speaker 1: As we all know, there are many foreign nationals who 461 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 1: are contributing positively to the South African economy, it's social 462 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:10,360 Speaker 1: structure and everything else. The humanity offs are there, there 463 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: are many of them. And there are many of those 464 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: who are qualified, who are here legally, who are doing 465 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: a great job, who are really invested in this country. 466 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 1: And then there are some, to be honest, who are 467 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: taking us backwards. There are some who are committed to 468 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: selling drugs. There are some who are committed to being hitmen, 469 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: to doing this, that and the other, taking us backwards altogether. 470 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 1: But equally so, crime should be condemned as crime. It 471 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: must be condemned just as crime. I don't want you 472 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: to fight with me about that. I get where you 473 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: come from, I fully do. I'm not inviting a fight, 474 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: but I'm asking as well, that line thin line between 475 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: between being a patriot of note and being xenophobic reach 476 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 1: us keep to one side of the fence. Is that possible? 477 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: Or life is not just as black and white as that. 478 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: Earlier on we asked about the matters in the legal fraternity, lawyers, attennees, 479 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: advocates that are being shot down. Are you in that 480 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: legal space? What is happening? Take us into your confidence. 481 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: Last week we saw someone a lawyer from c CMA 482 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: who was gonned down brazenly. So and tomorrow there's another 483 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: vicious case that is taking place in Pumbridge. And the 484 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: City Press reported that or on this a little while 485 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 1: ago about this serious case, and I'll quote from what 486 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: they had said. It was written by Norman massung Guini 487 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: who said in an extraordinary pattern that has raised eyebrows 488 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: in law enforcement circles controversial businessmen, who saying, Mohammed finds 489 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: himself at the center of more than eleven criminal cases, 490 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: a web of legal troubles spinning over a decade that 491 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: mysteriously converges in a single police station. Much later on, 492 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: he does mention that he was involved in, among other 493 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: most serious charges currently before the courts. In Mohammed's alleged 494 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: involvement was in stealing jewelry from his own store after 495 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: Capelin Jewelers during its liquidation. He also is accused of 496 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: pointing a lawyer who's a liquidata with a firearm and 497 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: assaulting the lawyer as well, and that case is appearing, 498 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: is taking place tomorrow. It will be heard tomorrow in 499 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: Palm Ridge and this seemingly dangerous individual is going to 500 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: be there. Are we yet to expect another one of those? 501 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: Hopefully not, hopefully not.

Okay, my name is Operated from Winchester. 515 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 6: I'm an atone by Prossession and I happened to come 516 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 6: from that area. I'm an eble man from the BFA 517 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 6: part of Nigeria. So I thought I should air by 518 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 6: on view in this discussion, you know, in order to 519 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 6: shed lights, you know, having covered from that area. Now 520 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 6: I want to say this. I'm clear for you know, 521 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 6: a there is no such thing as a Ebo change 522 00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 6: on Niger eking in the diaspora. We only have one 523 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 6: king at a particular time and they're all in back home, 524 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 6: you understand. So I want to as shore South Africa 525 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 6: is that there's people who are saying they're coronating or whatever. 526 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 6: These are fake. 527 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 5: It's not real. 528 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 6: When they go back home, nobody knows them. They are 529 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 6: not recognized. They're not even gonna say, oh, I'm an 530 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 6: evoking from South Africa, though they will keep moods, so 531 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 6: they're take an advantage because nobody is monitoring and I'm 532 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 6: thinking why not from Southern Nigerian embassy. They should also 533 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 6: be in a better position to say, we don't know 534 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 6: those guys. There is no such effect in the diaspora. 535 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 6: These affect people who sell h I've got a couple 536 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 6: of rides in my pocket. Let me make myself a 537 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 6: king and become something somebody. So South Africa should see 538 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 6: it for what it is because when they keep saying 539 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 6: my general it affects a lot of people, especially professionals 540 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 6: like us. You understand, but it's fake, it's not real, 541 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 6: So they should deal with the individuals direct, so it 542 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 6: doesn't affect people compass. 543 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: With the reputation of the reputation of Nigerians who are 544 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: doing well in the country, who are here legally, who 545 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 1: are contributing meaningfully to society and the lives of all 546 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: South Africans in general. It creates that negative dark cloud 547 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: and you're judged and fairly so. 548 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 6: And one more thing I want to say is I 549 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 6: understand that you as a lawyer, I know there is 550 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 6: a freedom of association. You understand you can do PHAs 551 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 6: that you want to do that is legal and stuff 552 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 6: like that. Now, what we have here in South Africa 553 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 6: are people who are like a president of association in 554 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 6: a union that looks after the interest of Nigeria in 555 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 6: South Africa. That is legal, that is allowed. You know, 556 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 6: that is the only thing we have and the people have. 557 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 6: Don't want time after time from home to say, do 558 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 6: not coroinate yourself because it doesn't work like that. If 559 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 6: you want to be anything, come back home and seek 560 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 6: maybe that you know such education of the exactly. So please, 561 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,399 Speaker 6: there is no questing as kings or anything of every kind. 562 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 1: Got your brother, got you, got you ab but really 563 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: appreciate your call Tony, thanks for your patience you've been 564 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: holding for some time. 565 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 2: Welcome Donny. 566 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 10: Good morning to Abha. 567 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 2: I'm free, Tony. Thanks for calling. I hope you're good. 568 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 10: I'm good. Thank you. Some I was just calling connection 569 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 10: with the issue with guns in malls and the amount 570 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 10: of private security in our street. Was recently at at 571 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 10: a well known mall and one of the restaurants that 572 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 10: we're having dinner at was bot off half of the 573 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 10: restaurant bar, well known personality. 574 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, and while. 575 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 10: We were having dinner, there were must have been at 576 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 10: least half a dozen on security guards with machine guns. 577 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 10: So in my mind, I feel very uneasy because in 578 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,760 Speaker 10: the event that somebody becomes a target, it's the innocent 579 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 10: people on the fire that get taken out. And you 580 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 10: know similar incidents of the garage where a white dnw 581 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 10: arise with an entourage of security and the next thing 582 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 10: there's people jumping out with guns at the ready. 583 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 6: I mean, I left the. 584 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 10: Four court immediately. Just raises the question for me that 585 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 10: there far too many people with machine guns or guns, 586 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 10: and it's linked to our whole problem with the Blue 587 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:33,359 Speaker 10: Light brigades. Who's entitled to who's entitled to security? With weapons. 588 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 10: There's just far too much of it happening. And at 589 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 10: points to a Matthew said, for me, it's linked to 590 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 10: the police, barbery and corruption. It's such a big, much, 591 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 10: bigger problem that. 592 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 2: We saved in Tonny. I couldn't agree more. 593 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more, especially when some entities and some 594 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 1: thugs who want to have permission and license to brand 595 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: they firearms wherever they want to publicly, they open up 596 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: security shops, security companies, and then they are licensed appropriately 597 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 1: and they become a threat to all of us. I mean, 598 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 1: you see how they walk around. They know that they 599 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 1: are and they're so bullish in their walks, and they 600 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: are just throwing their weight around. And we have to 601 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 1: exist in the same space with such people. We are 602 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: genuinely in meetings or having dinner with your family or 603 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: friends or whatever it is that you are doing. 604 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,760 Speaker 2: It's something that we don't need. It is something that. 605 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 1: We do not need, and we need to be a 606 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: little bit more stringent in applying the laws. 607 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,399 Speaker 10: Absolutely, and I think it's for me. The question one 608 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 10: has to ask you is I understand there are some 609 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 10: people who legitimately require security, but for the most part, 610 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 10: the finding that the people that pose as businessmen, but 611 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 10: they're actually it's saggery and that business tactic. For me, 612 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 10: it's the only reason why anybody would need to have 613 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 10: fifteen people around them with guns. 614 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 2: If you're a law by it definitely for the time. 615 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 10: Why are you perading you Obviously there's something wrong that 616 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 10: you need all these wet rag It's very frustrating in 617 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 10: South Africa. 618 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,319 Speaker 1: It is Tony, thanks for you call. Really appreciate it 619 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: and it's something that we need to speak about more often. 620 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 2: Tony from sentence. 621 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 1: And there's some people, by the way, just to add 622 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,840 Speaker 1: quickly that they just want to look important. They just 623 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: want to tell the rest of us that they've arrived. 624 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: They've got lots of money. So even when they are 625 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 1: ten funerals, they'd be escorted by a lesion of for 626 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:29,319 Speaker 1: security agents who are branding firearms, brandishing firearms with them 627 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:33,399 Speaker 1: and carrying them and just being escorted for nothing. No 628 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: one really cares about you that much, and you are 629 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 1: creating an environment that is very difficult for all of 630 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 1: us to exist in simply by showing us that you 631 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: can afford security. 632 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 2: I think them we must. 633 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 1: We must get to a point where laws are a 634 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 1: bit stricter, and we can regulate a proliferation of firearms 635 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: in our society.
