Mass marches have been growing in size, spread country wide and their causes have become more and more trivial (food prices, fuel prices, etc). They arrange these marches with hundreds of thousands of demonstrators for seemingly insignificant causes. What the hell is going on? It is time keep a close eye on what the black masses are doing...
Take another look at the picture in this post.... a so called "Peaceful" march???
Johannesburg - Hundreds of school pupils, some in uniform, were gathered at Johannesburg's Beyers Naude Square on Friday for a protest march to the Constitutional Court in support of ANC president Jacob Zuma.
Milling around the square, some of the children said they were not sure what the march was about. They were from Soweto's Thabo, Thomas, Naledi, Prudence and Moletsane high schools.
One of the students said that the organiser, the Congress of South African Students (Cosas), went to their schools and told them they should join their march.
"They asked our teachers and organised a train for us to come here. But we were not well informed about the reason why we are protesting," Nomsa Mabona said.
Other students sat around, some played soccer, while they waited for instructions from Cosas.
Cosas projects and campaigns officer Siya Sintwa said: "We are waiting for about 10 000 students from Tshwane, Soweto, Ekurhuleni, Vaal, and the Greater Johannesburg area."
Referring to Zuma's protracted legal battle, he said that no-one should be under investigation for more than seven years. The judicial system was treating Zuma unfairly, he said.
In a statement handed out ahead of the march Cosas said its president Kenny Motshegoa would deliver a memorandum to Chief Justice Pius Langa on the "continued manipulation and abuse of the judicial system against the president of the ANC, comrade Jacob Zuma".
According to the statement there was a campaign, allegedly being conducted through "the organs of class rule - the courts", to stop Zuma from becoming the country's next president.
Cosas members said they were prepared to repeat the June 16 uprising, where pupils took to the streets, primarily in defiance of apartheid education policy.
"Those who think there will be peace after they illegally take Cde Zuma to court, they are not only dreaming, but they must be prepared to meet the anger of South African students," the statement read.
The Constitutional Court ruled against Zuma's attempt to challenge the searches and seizures that were part of the corruption investigation against him.
