"Adele Kirsten, the organisation’s director, explains that this case “demonstrates the significant weaknesses in the firearms control management system in South Africa,”."
Allow me to give some balance as it has already been hijacked by GFSA. It is not about the gun an inert object that can do nothing on its own. The controls - FCA - is fairly robust and most law abiding citizen gun owners would agree. What this demonstrate is the general disregard for the laws of this country. The taxi driver overloading and speeding his unroadworthy "schoolbus" killing 18 children. The rich lady in her 4X4 chatting on the phone, hitting a pedestrian.  Drivers skipping red robots and stop signs. It is about the fact our president is presiding over wholesale looting of the country with a cloud of corruption and rape hanging over him. It is the people who continue to support him. 
It is the appointment of corrupt cadre friends to lead SAPS, not the best White, Brown or Indian man/women for the job.
