--------------------------
(BACKGROUND. Afrikaners are barred from the SA labour market under some 100 anti-white ANC-laws and have developed survival strategies like this: paying security companies R25 a day to guard cars in car-parks -- and for which they then earn an average of R150 a day if the customers give them money for doing so. These Afrikaner car-guards are unarmed, have no health insurance nor any kind of rights to access government benefits if they get injured on the job. Attached is interview with Afrikaner Kobus de Kock, a former businessman with an academic B-com degree, who explains to Rapport newspaper how he survives on his 'business' of working as a car-guard).

Afrikaans Beeld daily journalist Monique Vrey reports on 10 February 2014 that two Afrikaners, a father and daughter working as unarmed car-guards in the ABSA-bank parking lot in Voortrekker Street, Brakpan,
were critically injured when they tried to stop a man who was taking money to the bank from being robbed by two black armed robbers.-- Altogether four black male robbers were involved, a bystander was quoted as saying.
Both victims were shot in the stomach: Kathleen underwent surgery at the government memorial hospital in Springs and is in a critical condition on Feb 10 2014..Her father Barend is in 'satisfactory' condition at the Far East Rand Hospital, also in Springs.The father and daughter have worked as car-guards for the past 15 years and are the sole breadwinner of the family, said their son in this interview. They had tried to stop an armed robbery targetting Caltex garage owner Paul Chronias and his worker Rasta Dlamini in the morning of February 9 2014.
Two black gunmen stopped Dlamini in the parking lot and grabbed the money-bag from his hands. "When the Oosthuizens saw the two men grabbing the money-bag from Raste, they rushed in (unarmed) to try and stop the robbers, said Chronias at the scene.
One of the gunmen threatened the father - and his daughter Kathleen grabbed the gunman from behind to protect her father - and the two Afrikaners were gunned down.The loot was dropped on the ground when the blacks fled. There reportedly was about R100,000 ($9,000) in the money-bag.Eye witness Quinton Faifer said four black men were involved, and they fled in a silver Jeep Grand Cherokee - with the police and private security company guards in hot pursuit until Daveyton, where the trail was lost.Oosthuizen's son Barend junior is very angry about the attack on his father and sister. "I was enroute to my job when I was phoned and warned that they were shot. I went blank because my mom died three years ago and my dad is the breadwinner of the family,' he said.His father had tried once before to stop an armed robbery but was not injured. "I am so very proud of them because they are so courageous but I am very angry with the robbers."I mean, my dad is an old man. Was it necessary to shoot them?"The SAPS spokesman on the video confirmed that charges of attempted murder and armed robbery are being investigated.
