Ian Cameron - You will not take our guns!

Loading player...
Millions of South Africans fear that they will be disarmed and left defenseless in crime-ridden South Africa by possible new legislation. But in his latest interview with Chris Steyn, a defiant Ian Cameron, the Democratic Alliance's Spokesperson on Police and Chairperson of Parliament's Portfolio Committee on Police, issues this challenge: “I want to see them disarm lawfully armed and law abiding citizens in this country because they are going to fail dismally. That is a fight they should not pick. It's a fight that I would advise them not to even try. We are going to protect our communities. We're going to protect ourselves and our families. And there's no way that we're going to allow them to arbitrarily take that away.” Cameron believes the disarmament agenda is a "way of gaining more control” as “the more control you lose as a government, especially one with the ideological, let's call them challenges, that the ANC has brought upon us over the years, the more you try and centralise certain things.” That level of “draconian control” could mean “only an elite few…are able to be supposedly kept safe - and that they would use State coffers to do so through… abusing police and whoever else the armed forces have at their disposal.” Cameron outlines the DA’s fight-back strategy.
