    There’s heavy violence currently going down at universities across the country, from Fort Hare to the University of KZN, Wits, UCT and the University of Limpopo.

    Since Monday, violence sure has flared up, way worse than what we saw last year. If only the past year was used to discuss a plan forward, rather than just making an announcement proclaiming a decision was made.

    But nah, let’s keep the disruption going.

    As angry as I am at the students for the awful destruction, as the protests increase I am getting even angrier at the people who have the power to make a change – but the worst is people like this guy below who are just plain awful. Here’s my favourite quote:

    I can be intelligent, and an asshole.

    But private security? To what end? Why the intimidation tactics?

    Here’s what a Wits lecturer had to say on the situation:
