Ignorance is bliss. Louis saying he didn't see anyone with guns, just people without jobs as if to convey sympathy for their situation. Yes, these people live there because they have nowhere else to go but it's still extremely dangerous. Just because he didn't see the danger, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Those security guys are scared for good reason, it's no joke. The people living there have nothing left to lose so there's no telling what they are willing to do to you to get what they need.

This really is white people's fault. If the ruling white elites of South Africa had the wisdom to realize that Apartheid was unsustainable, they could have gradually integrated society. You can't deprive a people, especially a majority, of a political voice and expect them to govern like Seneca from day one. Read about what happens to lottery winners, most end up worse off than before they won the lottery. Without tradition, education, or training, what the fuck do you expect? But instead of doing the wise thing, they stayed selfish pretending that the status quo would continue indefinitely. White people are fucking morons.

I mean, large amounts of criminals in a lot of countries are unemployed and homeless, as desperation can be the biggest motivator. Given the sheer amount of violent crime happening in SA specifically, you’re probably never too far away from a shady character and a couple of hand cannons. Especially if you’re like Louis and often recording in the more impoverished areas.
