Samwu defends street trashing

I can understand the workers' grievances, but I can't condone their actions.
 
The work lots of people do is invisible. Can you imagine if firemen burnt down buildings to make themselves heard?

Thank goodness the strikers aren't responsible for bomb disposal.
 
****ing idiots, who do they think is going to have to clean it up once the strike is over?
 
They can say what they want about it and give any justification thats fine. Just so long as they pick it all up once they're done with their temper tantrum :rolleyes:
 
Yet, the gap between the workers and their managers remained "as wide as it was under apartheid".

And you voted for which party which, according to this quote, is little better than the Nats?
 
SAMWU's defence of these actions is just plain stupid.
Sympathy that the workers may have had by the general public is now also 'in the trash'.
 
Bunch of thugs! The lot of them! I'm staring out of the window now and there's just trash everywhere.
 
"class based responses" WTF!!

Where do these people get these word and phrases? South African should make the best PR or Marketing people, we got people that can defend almost anything..

Its incredibly mind boggling!!
 
What amazes me is that the union always blames "the criminal element" and it's never their members, even when they are caught on camera.
 
When I see those fkn apes turning over rubbish bins I get so angry I wish I could slit their throuts. Really. That's how angry I get. Wish I could throw a hand granade into the crowd!
And the unions keep saying that they don't condone the acts, and if we see any of their members involved in the act then we should report them to authorities. The fkn authorities are too fkn scared to do a damn thing. They stand on the sidelines and let the apes do as they please!

Please dude, stop calling them apes - this is a term that was used a lot in the apartheid days, and it can be very offensive. I will have to report continued racial slurs.

Oh please get over yourself. Let's just call them baboons instead then shall we?

All over the world people use the word ape, like my moms going to go ape-**** when she finds out I've dented her microwave etc, etc. Stop aping around etc, etc blah blah.
 
Uhm, BCO. You misinterpreted what I said as a racial slur. And thats your own problem. When I refer to the strikers as apes, I do so because they act in a similar way to the ape animals.

Dude please stop making racist assumptions like the fact that all municipal workers must be Black. Your racial intolerance will be reported if you continue.
