Message:   Saw a bumper sticker on a young white males car which spells it out nicely -
Politicians have bodyguards. We don't. Buy a gun!

If it were only that simple. Legislation has made it near impossible to renew a current firearm license, never mind applying for a new one. I have to agree that our ANC government is slowly but surely disarming the ligite firearm owner with little regard to all the illegal guns.
The few roadblocks concentrate more on traffic offenses than drugs and guns. A few nights ago they showed on TV news the close on 6500 firearms that was destroyed. How many of those were illegal guns? When the new law came into effect many legal gun owners handed in their guns because they didn't see their way out in getting a license for it.
So what if a black man has a licensed gun? Don't they have the same right to protection the white man claims as a right?
Unfortunately I have to agree with Jan as well, this whole exercise is aimed at disarming the majority gun owners, which at this stage is still the white man.
