Protest actions and strikes

The South African Police regularly being described by the world to be brutal and unorganized during these action, whereby they merely protect themselves and other.

What people do not know or keep in mind is that almost every strike or protest action in South Africa is done by people armed with all types of weapons that is normally on a path of destruction and killing. They kill and intimidate workers that want to work and then also destroy infra structure and property. 

What is worse is that the adults in many cases use children and even babies for "protection" when participating in these actions and then if something happen to the child or baby. The police and other agencies get the blame. 

Many of these strikes is to service deliver whereby migrants illegally occupy land where there is no infra structure of facilities. These people normally move from area where they do have houses and facilities to these informal settlements in search of work and to escape from poverty. It is then expected that local authorities must provide immediate water and toilets as well as electricity whereby it was not in the city plan for that area and no funding available. In recent protest in the Western Cape near Cape Town the people demanded houses and toilets. As interim the local authorities provided water points and bucket system toilets. This however was destroyed in a following protest action costing millions and demanded for flush toilets. After spending Millions there was another protest action where these toilets were totally damaged and now the action is again for toilets and housing as promised by National government. I wonder where do they think the money comes from to every time rebuild damaged structures. 

It is clear that these actions is done by people that is plainly classified as violent, irrational and natural criminal orientated people. What logical person would burn trains and buses if they are not happy with inadequate transport and prices. What a person would bring their children as part of these actions. What a person would damage roads and attack people using roads with these actions. 

Well this is what National Government entertain and allow. Not only do South Africa and its tax payers loos millions in corruption and fraud by Government officials, but also millions by people that just demand and does not have the intellect to know how to protect what we have while asking for more. 

Strikes like this become a normal sight and as previously said. The world is only seeing through media what actions the police and authorities took but one would never see the devastation and violence of the strikers an as stated using children as cover when shooting, throwing petrol bombs or killing innocent people. With reference to the Marekane strike a while ago, I wondered what all the critics about the police actions would have done if they were in their shoes. Thousands of violent mine workers attacked the police officials and the world expected them to down fire arms and wait to be killed.

I am also not a racist for this article is based on facts and it is just unfortunate that almost all the actions is done by people as in photo's.
