Have you noted the cops do not stop violence? Why?

Viva burn it down then close the school please,

This never stops..... There is no way the country can move forward when infrastructure keeps being destroyed. burning looting ViolentProtesting

Burning Schools 😱😱😱😱

They burn the classroom down, and next week complain that government does not care about them (which they don't....). Still, make your stupid little cross on May 8th for the same thugs who rule you now and see how much more they couldn't care

Clearly an uneducated asshole, it doesnt respect the right for others to benefit from education. Why set fire to a school. RIP SA.

Astounding mentality : “we want education, so let’s burn down classrooms”!!!

Arrest them. But SAPS and ANC are a joke, so that won't happen.

MYANC ANC Manifesto - Lie, deny, set on fire. ANC Supporter Manifesto - Set on Fire, burn, burn, burn,

Apartheid’s fault this

Stupids again destroying something thats good

The level of lawlessness in this country is completely out of control.

Yep, burn it down! We don’t need classrooms! But than: They are shooting at us, just like that, brutal police.

We don't have toilets, let's destroy the ones we have. We don't have schools, let's destroy the ones we have and so it carries on. The logic 🙄🙄🙄

This is the one I will say government must not rebuild it, residents must pay out of own pocket to rebuild or go without.

Now that's stupid

retards

The govt has put a soft touch on hooligans and nyaope thugs. Lock up these culprits for a very long time

Burn it down to stay stupid.

Why do they always have to burn things? Wasn't the point of the protest about service delivery and now they burned down one of the only things that was giving them a service?

Why do they always run like they dont wanna be seen... ?

MYANC, CyrilRamaphosa, PresidencyZA ...just why? What is being accomplished with this?

A class room?! The very same place that we want to educate future leaders parents responsible citizens?! A class room? That will cost money to rebuild? Meaning another one will be postponed? Class room where children learn?

It’s still not a protest .. it’s vandalism

Protesters who burn buildings and cars must be charged with arson and sentenced.What are they teaching kids

Burning schools,what is the benefit
