See what happens when you are anti-social?  Society gangs up on you.  Tolerance limits the violence of the State or vigilantes against anti-social elements.

Before criticizing the SA
There is something important to know to assess this case rightly...
the SA is another state of the USA., not an independent country. When looking from outside it may seem so.  I am very surprised at your ignorance about the relationship between the USA and the countries of the region especially after WW1 when England annexed there.

Then the countries there has not acquired their independence from England. There is so-called independency...

The conspiracy is deeper still ... you get executed in SA, if you mention that the Saudi family is actually Jewish.
