The whole thing is heart breaking. No words. I do want to say that #eNCA has really upped their game of reporting. Well done to all the boots on the ground showing us the real picture.
One of the wealthiest countries in Africa, with the highest level of inequality in the world. Politicians stealing hundreds of billions during an international crisis. Highest levels of unemployment since the dot com bubble. There is no tangible solution in sight, the frustration is real. The hopelessness is real.
Absolutely. The problem with these types of violence is that the poor are the people that will be suffering. Do you think the losses these companies and the companies are suffering will come from the CEO salary or do you think the company is simply going to "retrench" entry-level workers? Unfortunately, this is not frustration but opportunism. It is impossible for the police to control large crowds like this and it is just an opportunity for most of the crowd to enrich themselves at the expense of other people.
@@jacobuserasmus a lot of small businesses have been totally ruined as well, this paired with lockdown has been a death sentence to many small businesses.
100% agree with you...if politicians looting billions why shop looters are the only criminals. Every one that is committing crime must go to jail. We can't put levels on crime wrong is wrong.
People created a storm in South Africa, and when it rains, the same people will be the ones that will complain and the world will be laughing in their faces. No one will want to invest in a country that only leads to ruins
South Africa is the last country which anyone would want to crumble.Remember when a certain minister was fired the rand devaluated now with this situation it is still holding firm.ask yourself how?They is a game being played by those who control the country.
But why do we keep relying on investors from abroad investors from abroad why can't we start our own lives with the resources we have Oops we gave them away to investors from abroad that's why.
These shop owners are not going to reopen here. They will move to safer areas because this is going to happen again and again. Once people see they can get away with something, they will do it again. These shops will stand empty.
What happens when there are no more stores to loot, shops don't open again , and no more food to even buy, where are these looters going to loot? next door, your food that you save for your children. they have to, other wise there children going to die off hunger. Are you going to stop them from reaching what you got left after there is no more shops to sell food or jobs to earn money to import food. ????
They should live respective neighborhoods alone, those people are atleast making a living by being hardworking and responsible, not like the brainless zombies busy looting
My heart breaks for the innocent shop owners....how can people do this to their community, to the people they see every day....I don't think I will EVER understand.
Ramaphosa are enjoying for what is happening in SA ......let Zuma en his family en Ramaphosa pays for all this ......this owners mast never ever open shops in this areas again let this black people see were thy can go buy food let them suffering of there stupidity pls owners do not open shop in Alexandra again you going to loss out again
What’s the incentive for them to arrest anyone? You’ll just be wasting your energy. Even in San Francisco, the same thing is happening. There’s looting in many parts of the world now.
And people question the methods of ethnic groups in the 1980's why apartheid was created. Probably because some had insight of what is happening now. ( I am not referring to slavery but to hinder chaos in other words a system where crime and vigilancy was overseen).
Protests, looting, arson, etc does not make sense - little to no action fm Ramaphosa / ANC - why? Appears the ANC has lost control, RSA almost ungovernable! Who is behind this? What is the ultimate goal? Who is going to be held accountable for the protest and accompanying criminality? For those people who have no insurance and whose property has been destroyed and or damaged, who is going to compensate them? Apparently Ramaphosa’s wealth is estimated at ZAR R7 billion & Zuma at ZAR 2 billion - a good starting point. Shame on the ANC elite for treating it’s supporters like rubbish
why dont they deploy police and army infront of every remaining shopping mall and prepare. It's not like they can keep deploing AFTER they did the damage? where is the common sense
A good leader is a leader than not only leads but also is the one who can make the tuff decisions regardless of favor - Lets think what would a tribe leader do if people did this to his tribe. The leader would have the person hung. Do you job ANC tribal leader - MAKE THE CALL!
Philipians 4:4-9 is my prayer as a South African for all the people in our country. I also pray for a God kind of wisdom to our leader and decision makers that cannot be influenced by wicketness and greed. Only God has the power to show that HE ALONE IS GOD 🙏
WE are being Played here..Police are just acting for the Cameras.. Lol there is a lack of effort and drive to disperse these crowds 03:11 ..Those Police aren't even doing anything!🤣😂 ..that is the behaviour of either Suspects or Defeated Men. Pick one. ..Lol the one cop approaches the store gun out ready for action.. then he holsters his gun when he sees more looters..WTF!!🤣😂
Yeah @3:20 seems dodge, but in some cases the police do not have the equipment (riot gear) or backup to take action. Some of the videos show how many rocks are thrown at police - some police have already died from being hit by bricks this week. Rubber bullets is not enough of a deterrent it seems.
I truly understand it all has a deeper core. I doubt people want to be poor and steal. Its so sad people don't really see what's really going on in this place.
Nobody made people angry, they just decided to use anger to respond to the court's decide on former president Zuma on their own. South Africans let's refrain from anger please.
The Anc and judiciary could've avoided what is happening but turned a blind eye on the signs that were there that former president has overwhelming influence and support..so let them lay on the bed that they prepared
so.... what you are saying is that its better to not adhere to the law and let the corrupt go free in order to prevent people from being buthurt? Yeah sure, that will help in the short term but it opens the gateway for more corruption to take place that ultimately rob the people of the country far more and for far longer. A standard has to be set, if you just give in to terrorism there will never be any progress. That being said, a lot of the damages caused by the riots could have been kept to a minimum if we had a competent police minister and the guys in charge actually took pre-emptive action like they should have done in the first place.
The law locks up the man or woman Who steals the goose from off the common But leaves the greater villain loose Who steals the common from off the goose The law demands that we atone When we take things we do not own But leaves the lords and ladies fine Who take things that are yours and mine The poor and wretched don't escape If they conspire the law to break This must be so but they endure Those who conspire to make the law The law locks up the man or woman Who steals the goose from off the common And geese will still a common lack Till they go and steal it back
This is what happens when u use hate instead of love they force zuma to step down he did and went to nkandla looking after his cattle instead for them to move forward they followed him because of hate hate is a sin nobody in this world who goes to church praising God at the same time u hate a lot look at Poland people of Poland forgave Germany because they are neighbors and they move on with lives they are happily more than ever because God gave them blessings for their forgiveness but here in sa leaders think money is above God himself look now arresting zuma because of hate nobody is innocent in this world don't judge too much other people because u are not God only God knows what will happen in life I am not supporting zuma but distroying everyone because of one man that's not clever hate is sin in the eyes of our Lord forgiveness is a blessing amen
@@sihlecele9200 doesn't have anything to do with apartheid. using rubber bullets are clearly not working, any if offenders keep repeating actions that are against the law, the use of real force is needed to intervene. Chaos will prevail if people know there are no consequences to their actions, so not sure why live rounds have anything to do with apartheid.
@@sihlecele9200 a lot more harm will come to all the poor families suffering after they've lost their only livelihoods due to the looting. So it's okay for them to die because of the consequences but it's not okay to prevent that from spilling some blood just to avoid more harm?
Just remember that the police have serious issues with supply chain management. Their budgets have been cut to the bone. I think the teargas and rubber bullets will soon run out.

Ramaphosa is instantly regretting his speech. He had the opportunity to bring law and order back and to show his strength as a true leader.
He's afraid of human rights
Poser doesn't give speeches, he reads off-script. That's why he talks to criminals like he's their daddy.
He didn't want to say anything that's going to be used against him like people always do after they start the chaos
