How can I help? Are we going with violence or were you thinking about a more stealthy HQ infiltration approach?

OK, we are on it. But we charge R10 /km for distance travelled and R12,365 per gantry removed. Please provide specs for the gantry and GPS coordinates and I can prepare a formal quote for you
Hmm I'm thinking coordinated groups simultaneously arriving at each gantry with two F150's, a plasma cutter for each pole holding the thing up and two people each to operate them, cut the legs, throw some chain around the top of the gantries, attach to the fords then floor it and pull them over. Problem solved

That's wasteful man. The stuff can all be salvaged properly. The metal to scrapyard, the cameras to security company and the purpke lights to the baby's ward in the hospital. You can break even

I much prefer watching stuff burn

Leave them there with an inscription 'proudly brought to you by the ANC', let them serve as a monument to their shameful corruption. Let the tourists come see what Zuma & Co has done with the freedom the world helped achieve, like the Mandela statue but with blue lights.

You've obviously never been in one. They're built quite solidly.Hmm I'm thinking coordinated groups simultaneously arriving at each gantry with two F150's, a plasma cutter for each pole holding the thing up and two people each to operate them, cut the legs, throw some chain around the top of the gantries, attach to the fords then floor it and pull them over.

Put a sign up stating, in all 11 official languages, "This is why you pay more for bread"
That'll get the right people (Voters) angry

I've heard they're pretty well reinforced?

Plenty of concrete and a strong steel structure on the gantry towers. There isn't much to burn either.
Then we cut where the towers meet the overhead gantries, or just rip the cameras out and molotov the little rooms. I've always thought about opening the valves that you refill the refrigerant on the compressors on the side of those little rooms, let the temperature climb a little bit inside

Compressors? What compressors?Then we cut where the towers meet the overhead gantries, or just rip the cameras out and molotov the little rooms.

You'll need a ladder to get high enough on the towers. Easier would be to take a grinder to the roller shutter and get in like that. It's been done before.

Better idea yet. We take the purple lights and sell them in Brakpan/Springs at the flea market as under car lighting, special import at a premium price. We will make a killing.

Lol!
I tend to agree with this. There's a gantry on the R21 that looks like it was hit by a truck (judging by the height of the impact) which now sits with a massive dent, but not much other damage. Looking at the size of the dent I image the force at which the gantry was hit must have been quite large.
