A reign of terror has been unleashed on all South Africans inside their own homes and driveways by gangs of feral, ruthless armed killers is worsening dramatically. Residential robberies are up by 14,5 percent nationally, according to the police's 2007-2008 crime statistics. Every day, some fourty SA homes are invaded by large, armed gangs - who rape, loot and murder without any hesitation and use advance intelligence and days of observation of such a family before striking. Often, the females of the households are gang-raped, the men often gunned down without hesitation. The US embassy recently described these gangs as 'feral youth gangs with a powerful compunction to kill'.
