Thes deaths are on the conscience of the ANC and the ANCYL. Although there are legitimate demands, the ANCYL is behind the violent manner in which the protestrs are taking place, in accordance with their promise to make the province ungovernable as a means to try and unseat the DA. The do not know what a civilsed democracy means and the senior ANC leadership is too weak to tell them. Why are they not embarking on similar violent protestrs in other provinces ? Sies.

The ANCYL is taking this country down to the level of Zanu - PF style politics, and the economy of this country will go the same way as Zim. Where are the credible black leaders to halt this ?

Why is their right to protest held above a child's right to life?

With freedom comes responsibility. Some days, I'm not so very sure that our people should be given quite so much freedom as they wield it like a weapon of mass destruction.

We want schools - we get them, we burn it down
We want roads - we get them, we stone vehicles and throw stones
We want shops - we get them, we plunder and steal and bankrupt them
We want education - we get them, but are not willing to study and meet the standards, we burn it down
We want We want We want We want

And to add to my comment above...... after all is in smoke and ashes, we chant Viva Mandela...
It's a disgrace.

One is astounded at the silence of the loud, brave, militant ANCYL freedom fighting revolutionaries who usually spout their anti white, anti Cape, anti DA venom whenever there is an article with " Cape" in the headline.

Good afternoon all

RIP my baby

It is really bad to see the scenes like this, I was in Nyanga on friday last week they threw stones to my car fortunate I was not hurt but they damage the car now my car is in for repairs. Is really bad, these people called a mayor because no one listen to them, th mayor aarived they throw the chairs to each other what type of people we are living with? They damage the robot and burn tyres on the road they complain about the traffic jam - and have excuses when arrive at work " I am late due to traffic because the traffic light are not working"
