If the savages are old enough to engage in violent riots and destruction of property, they're old enough to go to jail.

The savages at UCT were old enough to go to jail but they didn't and thereby encouraged more savagery elsewhere.

How screwed is a country when looting has become more fashionable than the latest 3-series?
One can only laugh, like so:

South Africa's Gen Z are like animals.

Would not happen at an Afrikaans school. Bunch of savages preparing for adulthood.

Let them stand in a corner, or take their wifi away .....

Fcking idiot government.

Wakanda! The kids were fighting over who would be the next principal

Don't need much reason, if any, nowadays, to go on a rampage. Maybe the lack of reasoning is the problem

The anger was borne from Apartheid-era, but the continuation and escalation thereof is a product of the ANC AND the respective tribal/ cultural leadership.

How was their anger borne from apartheid? None of those pupils were even born during apartheid.

Everything bad is borne from apartheid. Havent you been in SA long enough to know that?

South Africa's Gen Z are like animals.

You are correct. Although not all of them behave like animals. A tiny minority are OK. The majority on the other hand...

Little savages from a young age.

Durban pupils trash school furniture in protest at principal's retirement

Pupils at Reunion Secondary School in Isipingo, south of Durban, tossed desks and chairs off the second floor of one of the school's buildings on Wednesday, angered by the fact that a deputy principal was to assume the position of principal.

While footage of the unrest at the school has gone viral on social media, it is understood that the crux of the concern relates to the principal, Mahalingam Padayachee, handing over the reins to a deputy principal.

Padayachee is set to retire at the end of October.

Despite the riot, the department of education has labelled it as a “positive problem”.

Provincial education department spokesperson Muzi Mahlambi told TimesLIVE on Thursday that while the department condemned actions undertaken by the pupils, they were happy that the students held their principal in such high esteem.

“For the first time we are dealing with a positive problem here, where learners are saying 'no you can't go, we still need you as our principal'.”
