S. African blacks continue to burn their own schools in Limpopo province
http://praag.org/ ^ | 05/10/2016 | n/a

By Thursday last week, South African blacks in the country’s northern Limpopo province had destroyed 23 schools, of which 19 were set alight. The burning of schools has always been seen as a legitimate form of protest in South Africa and until the ANC-SA Communist Party takeover in 1994 it was encouraged by liberals.

The burning of a school or a university is usually described as an “uprising” which is considered a positive “revolutionary deed”. A few weeks ago a lecture hall at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg was also set alight.

Might as well - they're obviously not using them.

One of ten thousand ways to slit your own throat as a culture. Hopefully some will be brave enough to speak out against this and loud enough to be heard.

And people wonder why Africa, especially sub-Sahara, swirl in the drain.

I suppose they want ‘someone else’ to pay to rebuild them.

As for me... no more foreign aid fom the United States.

My eyes have seen the glory of the burning of the school
We have tortured every teacher
We have broken every rule
We have shot the secretary and we hung the principal
Us brats keep marching on!

Glory, Glory, Hallelujah,
Teacher hit me with a ruler
I shot her with a .44
And she fell to the floor
And she ain’t our teacher no more.

-Ahh school days.

I'm always amused to see that name.

Then Kolokolo Bird said, with a mournful cry, 'Go to the banks of the great grey-green, greasy Limpopo River, all set about with fever-trees, and find out.'.

There are, apparently, people less curious than the Elephant's Child who are happy in ignorance. Let them rot.

In their case counter clockwise.

Stupid is, as stupid does. And don’t say it is not stupidity.

At least nobody in those villages is “acting white” anymore with books and such; now they can revert to how they lived before Caucasians showed them how to build something that wasn’t fashioned from animal hides...

Well DUH. Then they’ll complain they can’t get ahead because they have no schools. Those who follow the lead of the commies are probably too dumb for school anyway.

They want to be stupid, irrational and violent and will work towards that goal.

What more can be said?
