South Africa - 22 Die in Fighting

In Reiger Park, South Africa, clashes among the poor have killed 22 people. This underscored frustration with the government's failure to deliver enough jobs, housing and schools. How sad. Police brought in reinforcements as violence hopped from slum to slum. Most of the victims have been immigrants from Zimbabwe and elsewhere in Africa. We so often forget to be thankful for all we have here in the United States.
