I'm sure that many South Africans would embrace what you suggest, but how?  The common folk have been prevented from ever acquiring real weapons and so they have no power beyond a vote, if there is any such thing as a meaningful vote in South Africa.  If they are unable to vote themselves new leadership then they will either be faced with a martial law clampdown and / or the threat of a coup, which would most likely continue the endless cycle of poverty, oppression, dictatorship, and war that has plagued so many other African nations ever since long before I was born.  I don't see a possibility of meaningful reform in the current SA government....too much corruption.  The future looks very grim.
