On a smallholding outside Louis Trichardt (Makhado), Limpopo, 42-year-old builder Johan Oelofse was gunned down in cold blood as four attackers unleashed a ferocious barrage of gunfire on the family home from all directions.
Johan, his girlfriend Miempie du Toit, and her two children (Wimpie, 10, and Imge, 16) were watching TV when the nightmare began. Bullets shattered 19 windows. The family dove to the floor in the hallway as shots rained down. Johan grabbed his pistol and cellphone, returned fire to protect them, and desperately called a friend, the police, and the neighborhood watch for help. The attackers screamed they were going to kill everyone.
Johan was shot in the head. He died a hero, shielding his family. The cowards fled without stealing anything, they came purely to murder. Police later tracked them, leading to a shootout where one suspect was wounded and arrested. Two firearms stolen earlier from a nearby farm were recovered.
This was no "robbery gone wrong." It was a deliberate, vicious assault on a White family, enabled by the ANC regime's racist policies, B-BBEE discrimination, "Kill the Boer" incitement, and total abandonment of rural White communities.
The blood of Johan and thousands of other White victims cries out for justice. The genocide continues while the world mostly looks away.
