Protests @ Telkom in Pretoria

Hectic, probably the Telkom media firings. No need to smash up white folks stuff though, thats just rude.

And then got herself killed by the mob. No dude, I hope she got in her car and got away as soon as possible.

There are big problems in SA and I fear this is just the start. The people are dissatisfied and unfortunatly are pointing thier anger in the rong direction, at other races instead of at the government which is failing them. I am no doom sayer but this is just one of many actions since the begginning of the year and I fear there is more to come if the government continues to turn a blind eye to the plite of those that put them there, a whole bunch of new luxury cars is not going to help raise the quality of life or create employment for the people of SA.
 
I would have sympathy for protesters, but when they attack innocent people they disgust me. The bastards should be locked up.
Anyway, it's probably the usual crap. Pay rise or something.

Sorry to hear about your friend, hyperian.

I thought that it only happened in Africa, but my dad was telling me similar stories of what happened during the coal miners' strikes back in the UK. Granted, it was like 40 years ago and they do it less often nowadays :rolleyes:
 
The poor woman must have been scared out of her mind. I by no means have sympathy with those idiots. They are takeing thier frustration out on innocents instead of pointing it at the proper culprits. As I said Idiots.

I am just saying that if these problems are not addressed we are going to see a lot worse coming. Government are acting like the proverbial ostrich and soon a lot of people are going to get hurt but it is going to be the inocent instead of the guilty. I am no doom sayer but these people were promised jobs, houses and all kinds of things that the government are unable to provide. It's a pity that others are blamed for this instead of The government, Maybe that is why they dont seem to care though, they know that they will not be blamed for it.
