Police Are Firing On Student Protesters In Port Elizabeth [Video]

As the efforts to shut down university campuses around the country kicks into gear the police in PE are having a shocker.

Hey SAPS, you know how you don’t diffuse a tricky situation? By firing on peaceful protesters with rubber bullets and teargas.

That video above was tweeted by THIS Twitter account at around 8AM this morning with this caption:

I don’t imagine it’s easy being part of the SAPS but you really have to expect more from those whose job it is to serve and protect the country’s citizens. Let’s hope someone is held accountable because incidents like this highlight a real lack of respect shown towards those protesting for what they believe is a better future.
