Wits students protest over tuition fee increase

[Fulcrum29]

Not a chance. We will have a coup before a soldier starts firing on students.

Those students are adults, they are responsible. What crime is it to occupy the Union Buildings?

Wits and UJ students told to head back to their busses to go home.

One station, SABC I think, said that it was TUT Soshanguve studnets causing problems.

It doesn't matter what the crime is. It won't happen. The military will sympathize with the students.

Reported that the protesters are starting to disperse into Pretoria.

A peaceful protest

F*** off. I only ever said Wits students were peaceful. And considering we just walked by when we realised shyt was real... I don't see how you can pin this on us. We sat by IRS Law Chambers on Stanza something road. We're just walking back right now.

These okes are deluded to think that anyone can negotiate with thousands of students.

You are under the impression that the military will sympathise with the protesters and then as one stage a coup? The military and police has protocols to abide to, whether it is lethal or non-lethal pending on the circumstances. Nobody are there to kill protesters.

It always amazes me how quickly a big crowd of people can disperse.

Indeed.

If that is what it comes to, yes.

Where have I pinned anything on you?

Wits and UJ students told to head back to their busses to go home.

Hopefully the peaceful guys will do so and it'll leave only the thugs behind and cops can mop it up chop chop
