This is why there are so many criminals in South Africa,they don't want a better life through education,instead,they want to be rapists,which only takes them to jail and the grave.

Abdulla-Saleeh & imd..."We don't want no education...." a line from a song called "Another brick in the wall." It was quite popular back in the 80's I think.

Can someone please tell me why when black people protest, they burn tyres and destroy things??? WTF!!??
Burning tyres destroys the enviroment, is fukking bad for health and just stupid.
And burning desks...can't they see their government won't deliver more?
These people don't want education. Wanna remain behind the rest of the world.

Trouble is they've been led to believe by the brain dead ANCYL that if they nationalize what they fancy and 'take' from the whites they will be wealthy without making any effort, ever!!

(some) blacks are their own worst enemies.

If you don't work for something you'll never appreciate getting it and this includes education!!
