The nation has not seen the last of the murders. One will stem from a robbery and the other will result from a domestic dispute. One will be rather brutal because the anger that will flow will defy logic.
And as is always the case the perpetrator will attempt to flee. People are going to say that the pressures of life are driving people to silly heights

Road accidents are becoming regular features. Early in the new week there will be two of them, both caused by carelessness as all road accidents seem to be. A bus laden with passengers is going to slam into a fixture. The injuries would be horrendous. The main hospital would be placed under pressure. Personnel to attend to the injured would be overwhelmed. Then there is going to be the blood shortage that would compound the situation.

Tension is heightening because people have refused to accept that everyone has the right to disagree. In this case the disagreement is over who should be respected and who should be allowed to make determinations at the national level. Indeed, there was always this problem but it was not an issue until now. The reason is that things were allowed to fester
This refusal to accept will spill over into other areas of life and the consequences would not be pleasant. If one believes that migration is bad now, whatever happens would worsen the migration.
But this need not happen as the signs seem to show. There is the pressure by the reasonable ones.
