As a registered voter I would like to "have my say in
the drawing up of the Constitution".
I firmly believe in the retention
and carrying out of the death sentence. The death sentence should be imposed
for murder, robbery
with violence, particularly where weapons are used and
victims are injured or killed, in other words armed robbery, armed rape,
particularly
if the perpetrator is found to be HIV positive as he has as good as
murdered his rape victim. All cases of violent abuse and, in
particular, rape
of young children. The perfect case for the death sentence and the carrying out
thereof, is the little girl from
Gauteng who has been violently abused by her
own parents but also by a couple supposedly taking care of her. All four of
these persons
thoroughly deserve the death sentence. I also believe a time
limit, e.g. 1 year from date of sentencing, the death sentence should
be carried
out.
I trust that I misheard that thought is being given to releasing all
those sitting on death row at the moment. That is ludicrous,
I also do not
believe there is such a thing as a political murder, only racist murders. For
example, Amy Biel was murdered because
she was a white girl in a non-white area
and the perpetrators should definitely receive the death
sentence.
Another matter I would like considered is in the case of
divorced women who receive a property settlement in the divorce. At the
moment
the woman has to pay a transfer fee to transfer the property into her name. I
believe this matter has been raised before
by the legal fraternity and I think
something should now be done to have this fee dropped and the transfer
automatically made over
to the women.
I would like to take this
opportunity to wish you all success with the drawing up of the final
Constitution which is obviously a monumental
job. May God guide you with much
wisdom.
