CAPE TOWN - Even though farmers use borehole water for their production, they will be affected by the proposed drought charge, the City of Cape Town confirmed.

"The City recently proposed that a drought charge is needed to make up the deficit in the City’s revenue which emanates from residents’ water savings and paying significantly less for water and sanitation.

As a result, the City's water and sanitation department projects a deficit of R1.7 billion for 2017/18 in the region. This municipality claims that without this income, water and sanitation service delivery would be affected."

So lemme get this straight. You have a drought, and order people to use less water, then because you have less money coming in through municipal users, you order people with their own wells to pay you the difference.

Governments are so awesome.

"Which begs the question: What do you do when you've been assaulted by a police officer?

Try to get as much evidence as possible, advises Haslam.

You have the right to know and write down both the officer's badge number as well as the vehicle number, she said, and if necessary you can call 10111 to report the incident. You can also lodge a complaint at the nearest (or any other) police station.

But what if personnel at the police station refuse to open a case against one of their own, we asked - which, according to purely anecdotal reports, is becoming more prevalent?

If the officers at the charge office won’t help you, Haslam replied, you should approach the Station Commissioner, alternatively the Provincial Commissioner.

You can also approach the Independent Police Investigative Directorate, whose job it is monitor the police and metro cops.

“The Directorate is responsible for promoting proper police conduct in accordance with the principles of the Constitution,” she quoted; you can contact them by email at: [email protected] or via their website."

We have truly become slaves. Nothing but cattle. When the solution to getting beat up by anyone, even a Police Officer, is to take the beating, then fire off an angry email, then... man, I'm speechless here.

This is what the 2A is about in the States. It's not about defending yourself from a burglar or mugger. Well, IT IS about defending yourself from a burglar or mugger, just a state sanctioned one.

Un F-ing Believable.
