South African police shoot dead striking miners

Magda Hassan Wrote:A hang over from the 1950's 'Riotous Assemblies Act' which was never repealed. This is a common thing in any country that has a new 'change' of government. The old apparatus remains intact. The same thing happened in Chile with Michele Bachelet. Pinochet's illegal constitution and laws were never touched. They should all be wiped out and new laws passed more in keeping with the sort of society to be built. But the real owners never change and the governments merely window dressing come and go.

Somehow I don't think theyll get away with this one!.....unless they want a second revolutionary struggle.....Zuma is horrible. I hope Mandella or someone of his stature will speak up soon!
