EFF-optog straffeloos onder leiding van die polisie | Vryheidsfront Plus

Terwyl die huidige inperkingsmaatreëls bepaal dat slegs eenhonderd mense in die buitelug mag vergader, het sowat 1 500 mense vandag deelgeneem

Translation:

While the current lockdown regulations stipulate that only 100 people are allowed to gather outside, approximately 1 500 people participated in an EFF march from Gandhi Park to the police station in Phoenix, KwaZulu Natal, while ironically being accompanied by the police.

It is unacceptable that the police did not lift a finger while lockdown regulations were blatantly being violated, but instead provided escort.

This is precisely the kind of conduct that creates the impression among people that they can violate the regulations with impunity and that, in turn, fans the flames of lawlessness.

The FF Plus will take up the matter in Parliament and the Minister of Police, Bheki Cele, will have to explain why some people are not arrested in certain cases, while action is taken against others.

The police’s assurance that law and order will be strictly maintained, particularly after the large-scale rioting of a few weeks back, is clearly no more than lip service.

These events on 5 August 2021, demonstrate that the police force is clearly powerless and has opted to cooperate with the masses in violating the law.

:ROFL: noble idea, but with a very predictable outcome.

Cops don't own enough handcuffs
Can you imagine trying to arrest 1500 looters?

Absolute chaos

Will never happen. Ever

The EFF is the ANC's experimental wing. They do what the ANC would like to but can't so the ANC can gauge the reaction and then implement or reject the idea. Ever noticed the ANC youth league doesn't do that anymore and is a non entity?

I don't think it has anything to do with having a sympathetic station Commander or the fact tat it is the EFF protesting, cops are pretty much had tied when it comes to gathering because they have no way of dealing with the situation besides monitoring it.

never noticed that, quite interesting observation, and especially when the ANC and EFF team up for some odd reason.

Because they're useless. Why can overseas cop forces deal with illegal gatherings?
