Dr. Hammond addresses the escalating crime crisis in South Africa, citing the recent attack on MPs near Philippi as a shocking example. He argues that the primary biblical reason for rising crime, as stated in Ecclesiastes 8:11, is that "criminals are not punished quickly enough." He criticizes a justice system that prioritizes criminals' rights over victims' and calls for a return to biblical principles of governance. His proposed solutions include making police accountable to local municipalities, implementing swift and severe punishment (including restitution for property crimes and capital punishment for murder, rape, and kidnapping), and upholding the right of law-abiding citizens to armed self-defense. He concludes that crime will only decrease when it stops paying and justice is administered promptly and consistently.
