The Easter weekend in South Africa ended with scenes from a dystopian novel or movie: the major N3 highway to the coast being blocked due to the looting of trucks by masses of mainly black men. In order to reframe the complete breakdown in law and order, mainstream media are referring to the looters as “protestors”.
From the South African minister of police’s office came the message that there was “chaos and disorder on the national road”. According to a spokesman, Nonkululeko Phokane, “Police operations are already underway to manage the chaotic situation in Mooi River. The public order unit of the SAPS is already on site.”
The N3 Toll Concession managing the road announced by noon on Monday: “North bound (JHB bound) is opened. No Backlogs. South bound (DBN bound) recovery and clean up in progress. Slow lane opened, for traffic. Minor backlog. We appreciate your patience.”
Trucks and vehicles were looted and set on fire by hordes of blacks from shantytowns near the road. A cellphone video shows a truck from the supermarket group Spar being looted.
Shocked motorists and travellers shared information on social media and advised others to avoid the N3. Others expressed their frustration at the mess that South Africa had become.

Law & Order nonexistent in a barbaric waste land governed by barbaric greedy leaders getting richer & pocketing tax payers taxes as fast as they can gobble it.
Without giving anything in return.No brains. No management skills.
Just greed…— Christo Kellerman (@ChristoK5) April 2, 2018

Afrimative shopping without cash the bantu way. The actions of beasts who fancy themselves homo-spaien-sapien. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/21bbfc0fac0c9c404324fa4b2f23e312c260b6afc0e0ea8de48132b9224b1eaf.jpg
I don’t remember any of this happening under apartheid
The New SA is lawless and godless. The African National Criminals rule, but can’t govern. Do you ever see white squatters and poor whites do something like this? No! That’s the difference and we are not equal to savages.
Savages we have to live with and no…..whe are not all equal, that would be an insult to hard working and law abiding citizens. The blame for this anarchy lies squarely on the shoulders of the criminals who regard themselves as “politicians”
