A bit off topic - but to be honest this is scary stuff. How are we ever going to get past apartheid and racism if this happens all the time. In Cape Town 4 University Lecturers who were white have been murdered this year already.
'We will kill the whites, all of them'

Police have promised to take "appropriate action" to ensure that any planned protest by the radical Pan Africanist Student Movement of Azania (Pasma) takes place in a peaceful and lawful manner.
In reacting to threats by Pasma to bring violent protests to the main campus of the University of Pretoria after burning tyres and barricading gates at the university's Mamelodi campus on Friday, Captain Piletji Sebola said police were concerned with the manner in which the protests were being conducted.
"We will not just fold our arms and watch. Where there is lawlessness we will react and arrest those responsible.
'We know that you white journalists are biased'
Sebola said they would not underestimate the possible threat and are warning protesters that if they become a law unto themselves then they must expect drastic action to be taken.
"We will kill the whites, all of them; Afrikaans and English," rioting Pasma students and their leaders at the university's Mamelodi campus chanted on Friday.
Students barricaded gates with burning tyres in an effort to prevent police from gaining access and dispersing the crowds.
Screaming "revolution is the only solution" and "kill the police, burn their cars", more than 200 students charged around the campus tearing up the university's flag, burning tyres and damaging trees.
Intimidating journalists and threatening to kill them if they covered next week's planned riots in a "biased manner".
"We have had enough of racist students and their lecturers who profess to have our interests at heart. We are tired of being discriminated against because we cannot pay the fees and because we are not passing.[/B[B]](my comment - this does not make sense - if they are failing - then :eek: )
"We feel that this discrimination, which is leading us to fail our courses, must be stopped - with violence if needs be," he said.
"If we cannot study because of these limitations, then nobody else should be allowed to," he said.
He also threatened that they would disrupt all classes at the university.
"We will become violent with the rightwing student groups and will fight the Afrikaner groups with fire and blood.
"We will take violence to all the white students and their lecturers and to any other bodies which do not support our movement and its demands," he said.
Sebei said the protests had to be continued until everybody had an opportunity for an education "as education is not exclusive".
"We are all in the same boat with the fee hikes, but this is not the way to solve the dispute," he said.
