JOHANNESBURG â€"  A court in South Africa on Tuesday found a hip hop star guilty of the murder of four schoolchildren in a case that raised emotions in the nation.
Molemo Maarohanye, best known by his stage name Jub Jub, faced charges of murder and attempted murder stemming from a March 8, 2010 drag race in which he and his co-accused drove cars that ploughed into a group of schoolchildren, killing four and seriously injuring two. The crash happened in Soweto, not far from the magistrate's court where they would be charged.
A magistrate ruled that the men had been driving under the influence of drugs, finding both guilty on four counts of murder and on two counts of attempted murder.
"The death of the deceased occurred as a result of the driving of those vehicles and as such the accused are convicted of driving their vehicles while under the influence of drugs," the magistrate said.
The case against Jub Jub, 32, was followed closely in South Africa, where many families worried the hip hop star and his co-accused, Themba Tshabalala, would not be convicted because of their wealth. Jub Jub is one of the most recognizable artists in South Africa. Thousands of high school students protested during his bail hearing in May and riots erupted when he was granted bail. Some family members of the victims threatened to assault him after the case was postponed.
Families of the victims were overwhelmed with emotion after the decision was delivered, with one woman losing consciousness and schoolchildren breaking into tears, according to the South African Press Association.
Jub Jub will be sentenced in November.

I'm not quite finished with the book yet but from what I've read so far it seems like "Brave New World" is a mix of (1) a theocracy where Henry Ford represents Jesus Christ and (2) a less extreme form of nazism in which some people with certain genes are better than others. For those of you who have read the book, do you believe this is true? If not, then what type of government do you think exists? Best answer for What form of government exists in Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World"?:

Totalitarian.
Answer by Socrates Poole II
I would use the word "collectivist" first and foremost. It could also be described as a "collectivist technocracy." Eugenics is the key component behind the dystopian system described in BNW. Eugenics is a collectivist ideology because it seeks to eliminate the weak to accelerate and control the advancement of the race as a whole (the collective). In a collectivist system, the individual is empty, and without value, excepting only for his/her capacity to serve the collective. Nazism has some strong similarities but also some key differences. For one thing, the type of fervent nationalism embodied by Nazism (short for 'national socialism') is eliminated in Huxley's dystopia. Such notions are viewed as primitive. Likewise, the careless hedonism that is embraced in Huxley's novel would have been targeted by the Nazis as "undesirable," "degenerate" behavior responsible for weakening the social fabric and undermining the greatness of the German people. Hitler frequently railed against such activity during his rise to power. Also, where Nazism opted for strong arm tactics and brute force to achieve and maintain its tyranny, the BNW system uses more sophisticated tactics of "soft tyranny" such as drugging the population and conditioning/indoctrination from birth. In this way, the BNW system could be viewed as a more mature version of Nazism, as the Nazis did experiment with such tactics (i.e. water fluoridation) but never got a chance to develop them the way the US and other nations have in past decades.

authoritarian, leaning toward totalitarian. not as bad as "1984," but not much better. There was a time, in America, when slaves who tried to escape were labelled "insane." Let's try to remember history so we can recognize it when it comes around again.
Answer by olinader
they refer to that type of society as "dystopian" which, in the context of the book, you could describe as a utopia so long as you are willing to accept a strict set of rules. from a perspective of power, it was certainly totalitarian, which means that the ruling class (or individual) has total power over the people. but neither answer is complete. brave new world was something totally unprecedented, without anything comparable in the real world.
