Umlamu wami uWerner wayengumzingeli oshisekayo. Kuze kube sekufeni kwakhe esemncane wayehlala eMpumalanga Jalimane, ebizwa ngokuthi iDeutsche Demokratische Republik, noma i-DDR (ngesiNgisi GDR), eyanyamalala eminyakeni engu-28 edlule. Ngahlala lapho, futhi, iminyaka eminingi, futhi kulapho umlamu wami angiyisa khona ohambweni olumbalwa lokuzingela. Ngakucacisa ukuthi ngangingawuthandi neze umqondo wokudubula inyamazane, isilwane esihle ngendlela emangalisayo. Ngokuqondene nezingulube zasendle, izidalwa ezingebukeki kahle ngaphandle kwalabo abashade nabo kanye nenzalo yazo - nami angizange ngiwuthande umqondo wokuzidubula. Ngahamba ngokwengxenye ngenxa yelukuluku, ngokwengxenye ngathola ithuba lokubuka izinyoni ngesikhathi ebheke inyamazane.
UWerner wayeneso elibukhali ngendlela emangalisayo abantu abadla amadlelo akude, wayenekhono ngesibhamu sakhe, kodwa futhi nangamazwi njengoba ezama ukungikholisa ukuthi ukuzingela, naphezu kokufa kwakho negazi, kwakuyisidingo. Njengoba zingekho izitha zemvelo (kuze kube yiminyaka yamuva lapho ezinye izimpisi ziphinde zethulwa kabusha) izinyamazane eziminyene zingaluma futhi zicekele phansi amahektha ehlathi elincane, kanti zona kanye izingulube zasendle eziqinile zingonakalisa amasimu amaningi amazambane. Uqhube wathi izinombolo zabo kumele zibhekwe ngabantu. Lokhu akuzange kuthethelele abazingeli bezokuzilibazisa ababejabule ukuthi bahlukane nakho konke okwanyakazayo kodwa, wathi, kuthethelele ukuthuthukiswa okuhlelwe ngokuqinile kwamazinga abo.
Ngiyasola ukuthi nalesi sizathu singabathukuthelisa abadla imifino kanye nezilwane, futhi ngeke ngiphikisane. Kodwa into ethakaselekayo kimi kwakuwuhlelo abaningi ababengalubona njengomngcele wenkululeko futhi oluvamile kuhulumeni ophethwe ngamaKhomanisi. Izikhali nezinhlamvu zazilawulwa ngokuqinile. Izibhamu, nakuba zingezabantu ngasese, zazigcinwe ezinkundleni zokuzingela, ngokuvamile ezixhunywe nekhaya lomqaphi wehlathi kanye nesiteshi. Ukuze bathole amalayisense njengamalungu eqembu, abazingeli kwakudingeka baye emakilasini futhi baphumelele izivivinyo zokuhlonza izilwane zasendle, ukugwema unya olungadingekile noma ukunganakwa, ikhono lokudubula - kanye nemithetho ethile yakudala yendabuko yabazingeli, eyake yavunyelwa izikhulu noma amadoda acebile. Izibhamu kwakudingeka zithathwe futhi zibuyiselwe ngendlela okwakuvunyelenwe ngayo, eyayilawula ukuthi yiziphi izinkathi zonyaka nokuthi yiziphi izilwane ezazikulungele ukuzingela nezingekho: izilwane ezigulayo, yebo, ngokwesibonelo, kodwa awekho amazinyane noma ingulube yasendle enenzalo. . Imithetho yayiqinile; yonke inhlamvu bekufanele ibalwe, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ishaywe noma igejiwe!
Imithetho ehambisanayo ibisebenza emaqenjini okudubula. Kwakudingeka isikole namalayisensi, izikhali zazingagcinwa ekhaya kodwa emakilabhini, kwahlukaniswa izinhlamvu kwadingeka kubalwe.
Yebo, lena ngempela kwakuyimingcele yenkululeko, futhi cishe yayinencazelo hhayi nje kuphela ngokwamahlathi noma ezemidlalo kodwa nangokwezombangazwe, ngaphandle kwezikhali ezingagunyaziwe ezandleni ezingaba ezivukelayo. Futhi labo abagunyazwe abantu abagqoke umfaniswano babenqunyelwe izikhathi zabo ezisemthethweni emsebenzini.
Lokhu kukhumbula, ngokuhlehla, izizathu zokuthi kungani abanye abantu baseMelika bephikisana nokulawula noma imikhawulo ngisho nasezikhalini zokuhlasela, ezingathengelwanga ukuzingela noma imidlalo noma ukuvikela kubaphangi. Uma abanye abalandeli be-NRA bephakamisa izingqwembe ezimemezela ukuthi "I-AR-15'S AMANDLA abantu" singaqagela kalula ukuthi hlobo luni lwabantu olushiwoyo nokuthi hlobo luni lwamandla. Cha, amaqoqo abo ezibhamu ayandayo awahloselwe nje kuphela ama-stags, ama-pheasants noma izindawo okuhloswe ngazo uhla.
Imithetho eqinile yezikhali ekuzingeleni kukaWerner, ngokungangabazeki imingcele yenkululeko yakhe - yebo isichibiyelo Sesibili sasishoda - futhi kwakusho ukuthi cishe kwakungekho ukufa kwabantu ngokudubula futhi akukho nokukodwa ukudubula kwabantu abaningi, ezikoleni nanoma yikuphi kwenye indawo - ngisho, njengoba kwavela ukuthi, phakathi noshintsho lombuso, okwenzeka ngo-1989-1990 ngaphandle kokuchitheka kwegazi.
Ingabe imithetho yayiqine kakhulu? Umlamu wami othanda ukuzingela akakaze angikhalele ngokuvinjelwa kwamalungelo akhe okuzingela (okungasasebenzi imithetho yakhe). Phela wayenguthisha, owayengakaze aphuphe ephethe isibhamu ekilasini. Futhi ukufa kwakhe, ngaphambi kokuba abe neminyaka engu-65, kwakungabangelwa yinoma yikuphi ukuzingela noma izingozi zezikhali kodwa kunalokho, cishe ngokuphelele, ngenxa yokulutheka kwakhe ugwayi, ukusetshenziswa kwawo kwakungalawuleki ngokuphelele. Njengoba ngingeyena umzingeli, umdubuli wezemidlalo noma obhemayo, kufanele ngikugodle ukwahlulela.
