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.
