Hiking alone. What could go wrong in the craphole of S. Africa?

"SANParks said suggestions that there are “growing concerns of crime” at Table Mountain are “speculative and may cause unnecessary alarm which undermines worthy and successful efforts,” in a social media post on Monday."

Pretty, blond, young white girl in SA?

And they expected what else exactly?

I have some neighbors who are white South Africans. They just brought over their elderly mother and sister who was caring for her. There is no one left from their extended family. They have all emigrated - and they swear they will never return.

There is also the issue of weather. There has been a freak snowstorm in SA, with videos of lions walking around in it. And this was on the plains. On mountains I can imagine it being pretty bad. Youtube “south africa snowfall”.

Would have been safer in North Korea, or Afghanistan.

It used to be safe for White people, male and female, to hike alone in South Africa. But Leftists, particularly female Leftists, could not accept the cost of that safety (putting felons in jail), and so, now, no one can hike alone there (or, for that matter, in much of the US).

They made her bed - and that was their right. But it would have been nice of them to warn people like her.

The State Department says it’s a Level 2 “Exercise Increased Caution” country. I’m kind of surprised her parents let her go to school there. I assume they were paying the tuition and could have said no. That said, I am truly sorry for those parents. They probably thought they were giving their daughter the adventure of a lifetime. Instead, she was murdered.

If her parents paid for this, they are on the hook for this level of stupid outcome.

South Africa is a terrible place to be if you care about living as a white person.

In 2009, my wife and I went to South Africa for a vacation. Among other places, we spent a week in Cape Town, during which we hiked up to the top of Table Mountain. The approach to the mountain was through a botanical garden. We were warned about possible crime before setting out. There were some very tall ladders we had to go up near the beginning of the trail, which was precarious and not well marked. The maps we had were equally poor. We finally found other people on the trail who were acquainted with the route. They helped us find the trail we were supposed to be on, and we eventually found our way over to the cable car, which we eventually took down the mountain. We were relieved when we finally arrived at the restaurant next to the cable car. It was not an enjoyable hike. My wife and I have done a considerable amount of hiking in Washington State, so we aren’t inexperienced hikers. Perhaps the trail has been improved, but I wouldn’t recommend anyone hiking this trail unless they were with someone and well prepared.

I expect the family will soon release a statement condemning anyone who tries to make this about race.

Ah, yes:

I once told a liberal Jew that South Africa was a shithole and he was really upset that I said that,but it’s true.

South Africa used to be white ruled, but now dangerous for the whites who live there.

Why would anyone go hiking there alone, particularly a woman? It is probably dangerous for the slow, falls, etc. and the animals, must less the humans.

Common sense dictates you don’t do these things alone. Brook is a smart dead bubblehead.

Snake bite? Kill the Boer? Who knows?

"Hiking alone. What could go wrong in the craphole of S. Africa?"

Someone once said, "If you want to know the future of America, look to South Africa."

Sometimes DNA cancels itself when it knows it’s too stupid to be passed down. Pretty young blondes alone in Africa are often carriers.
