WITS Protest - students burn buses

The protesting #FeesMustFall students are burning buses. While the emergency services, including the fire fighters and fire brigade vehicles try to extinguish the fire, the students are pelting them with stones.

One could ask if these are students who wish to be educated for free or criminals. Are they practicing their cunning criminal activities for the future.

It is absolutely despicable that students behave in a violent manner. What would they do if the emergency services refuse to enter a protest area and save them when they are hurt, will it be another protest against the emergency services.

The Fees Must Fall protest should never have been allowed to escalate into the chaos of today. Who will pay for the damages? No education will fix their attitude of disrespect.

President Jacob Zuma condemns the action and that is not enough. The African National Congress (ANC) promised FREE EDUCATION to all during their 2014 election campaign. Now the students want the ANC to deliver on their promises.
