Stop Hassling These Celebrities

I WAS shocked to read the report of the idiot hoax “bodyguards” who recently sprayed the interior of a nightclub in Swakopmund with pepper spray.

What sort of mentality of person would even contemplate doing something so ridiculous? Obviously this resulted in chaos breaking out and upsetting the customers. What would the outcome of such a foolish prank have been had this resulted in the death of an asthma sufferer? Angelina has returned to Swakopmund because she loves Namibia and so enjoyed the fact that she could previously move around freely here, without being hassled by media and pranksters.The fact that she has brought Brad and the children with her on this occasion is an indication that she is hoping to receive the same treatment once again.Let us be proud in Namibia that famous people such as Brad and Angelina are happy to visit our country and in doing so, are bringing fame and fortune to wherever they choose to stay.However the acts of foolish pranksters and inquisitive, obnoxious members of the community will only drive these people away, never to return to a country that previously permitted them to go about their daily lives in peace.Our daughter lives in America and she is proud to know that famous people from her part of the world are so happy to visit her hometown in the hope that they might enjoy the free and easy way of life that she remembers as a child.Please leave Brad and Angelina and their family alone to enjoy our country and let’s stop speculating as to what they are going to do next – that is their business.S Southworth SwakopmundWhat would the outcome of such a foolish prank have been had this resulted in the death of an asthma sufferer?
