PAGDAD declares war on drug dealers
People Against Gangsterism and Drugs (Pagad) on Thursday warned that its members are willing to take the law into their own hands to fight the scourge of drugs.
The organisation marched through the Cape Flats community of Manenberg on Wednesday night to raise awareness about the illegal drug trade.
Community members also walked to the homes of known drug dealers, demanding they stop their activities.
Pagad’s Osman Sahib said naming and shaming drug merchants is the only option.
“The community there has tried everything possible to try and get rid of the gangsters and the drug dealers in the area. They have made a decision now, that they need to take the streets back from the gangsters [and] the drug dealers,” he said.

Oh wells, at least they'll be happy getting their own harmful and addictive high when they walk around drugged on self-righteousness and ignorance.
Still, it must be remembered that most drug dealers (of the more organized variety at least) probably are rather unscrupulous and undesirable, but that's largely beside the point. Especially when they could remove them from their community overnight by eliminating their entire business through regulation by the government instead of by randomers with guns.
Also if you'll notice, people like this always seem to be against "drugs", they never seem to be against any specific drug or drug effect in particular. They just hate "drugs". Presumably people stand at street corners selling "drugs" and people come up to them and ask if they have any generic "drugs" to sell, which they then take in some generic fashion and experience generic drug effects which invariably seem to involve aggressive behaviour that is only ever seen when any real scientist happens to inconveniently be in a different location..

They probably just stuck a letter on their doors.
I'm all about freedom of speech and I can understand why a lot of people would want to get together and throw dealers out of business, but they should realize that someone much bigger than them has already declared war and is failing. So what chance do they have? They might be able to get rid of gangsters, but drug dealers? No way. Judging by suspicion alone, they will never know that the skinny nerdy white kid is your friendly neighborhood distributor. seems obvious to me they think only people who are 'gangsta' sell drugs. Oh well, have fun dealing with those gangstas.
I said gangsta, and not gangster. Gangsters have class. Not gangstas.

Because drug dealers are always the nicest guys who don't mind if you trespass right into their kitchen. So when one of these moral zealots gets shot in the face the rest of them can blame the drug dealer. Can they actually not know how stupid this plan is?

If they are declaring war on drug dealers then they better be ready to declare war on the government because they are the most powerful drug dealers with the biggest gangs and toughest gangsters.

Truth ^.
Why don't these people burst into corner shops and demand they stop selling tobacco? You know, something that we know, even in its most legal and professionally made and safest form, is horrifically harmful and kills millions every year without question.
Or even McDonald's while we're at it to extrapolate even further.

This is ridiculous. There is nothing immoral or unethical about legitimate commerce that doesn't involve fraud.
What's wrong with trading a man one thing for another when both parties want the objects/services in question and are prepared to voluntarily barter in order to make it happen?

lol you're saying selling products which often leads to the self-destruction of its consumer is a legitimate commerce? yea, that's a real constructive profession.
and i agree that while we're at it, the tobacco companies and alcohol companies should also take some heat. better yet, put some serious heat on the ATF after their recent exposure

i think hes meaning that any non-fraudulent transaction no matter what the product is, is legitimate commerce. if someone wants a drug, theyre either going to buy it, make it, or grow it. theres not really anything thats going to stop someone.

As they say in China, "You don't like, you don't buy". C'mon people need to take personal responsibility.

true
unfortunately, it's not always a completely non-fraudulent transaction when it comes to street dealers' products. they often cut their products to maximize profits.
and you're right, demon...people do need to take more responsibility. they also need to curb their overconsumption habits (i.e. less fast food, cell phones, large vehicles, etc.) overindulging is very irresponsible

racist? the whole prohibition of illicit drugs crusade is rooted in racism, goes back even before reefer madness.. the asian opium trade. those substances were viewed as foreign, untraditional; ignorance and fear evoked support for oppressive legislation.
