#2 Poorly trained SAPS definately lost control of the situation by leaving the skirmish line and moving well behind their vehicles. This only encouraged the protestors to move forward. Lots of firing into the dirt causing dust and confusion. The white fellow with the black tactical gloves who appears to be in charge is lucky to have survived friendly fire.

Shock and outrage from the MSM, Die Hildebeast or the UN ? Of course not. This is an ANC Gov't action which seeks to protect their ~~golden~~ platnium gooses. It's all very different now than in the bad old days.
