Apartheid in SA was evil, they say

But less than 1 murder per day

In the beforetime

All was sublime

Now murder, at 80 per day, is SA's forte

I seem to have forgotten that the 170 per year is apparently wrong. But 24k murders is more than triple was is said, and apparently for a few years, the average was double 24k.

This equates to 309,583 murders from the year 1950 to 1993 (44 years – averaging 7,036 per year), meanwhile according to SAPS statistics, 193,649 murders were committed in 8 years after the “new democratic dispensation” came to power, thus giving an average of 24,206 per year (crime statistics for 2002/03 are not yet available). However if we consider the Interpol statistics, which are only available on their website for the years, 1995-1999 and 2001 (6 years), the number of persons murdered in South Africa within those 6 years is 287,292 – averaging 47,882 per year. 2 Clearly the new government is not winning the war on crime, especially violent crime
