Mob Justice : Community locks criminals in School after they did this.

South Africans are tired of criminals taking advantage of the innocent, so of course there has been many instances where mobs have gathered to take care of the criminals themselves. Earlier today another mob gathered to take care of two thieves who were caught robbing a student. Here are all the details.

The situation :

RUSA (Reaction Unit South Africa) was called in by a teacher earlier today, after a community barricaded the entrance of a school in order to keep the criminals from escaping.

The robbers had tried to steal the cellphone of a boy as he was walking to school, however the students gathered together and began assaulting them. The community later joined in but the robbers fled into a classroom, where teachers locked them in.

Upon arrival RUSA found around fifty people armed with pangas and sticks, ready to deal with the robbers. However the SAPS (South Police Service) was able to arrest the suspects first.

The men were allegedly responsible for a spate of crimes in the Osindisweni area.

My Opinion :

While I don't believe in mob justice, I can understand where these people are coming from. They want there communities to be safe and if no one else is doing it, they'll do it themselves.

Regardless we have to stand by the belief that someone is innocent until proven guilty, and in this case, until those men were proven guilty by a court of law, they shouldn't be punished.

I urge communities not to get involved in mob violence as it can lead to people being killed and I urge the SAPS to better protect these communities so that they won't have to resort to doing things like this.

Here's why the Final three seasons of Supernatural were so bad. Finally facing reality.

Before I start let me just state that I love Supernatural as much as any other fan. So there is no toxic energy in this article. The reality of the situation is that we are a fiercely loyal fan base, because of our loyalty we overlook some things, like how bad the final few season were of Supernatural. This is why Supernatural quality gradually declined and why it’s okay to admit it. The beginning of the End : Supernatural first started feeling tired and fatigued in season ten. While the mark of Cain Storyline was enticing, it’s execution was flawed. Sam was able to save Den from the Mark of Cain in the first few episodes, he than proceeded to spend the rest of the season once again trying to Save Dean from the Mark of Cain. The problem with this is that once we saw it, we didn’t have to see it again. However regardless of that their were some good storyline in Season ten that I would have loved to see continued. Like the steins for example. However it seemed like things were going...

Recently Marvel has been on a roll with their Television series and Movies. A new piece of content has been dropping every month since WandaVision Jump started Phase Four of the MCU. However in there most recent trailer, for The Eternals, people noticed something peculiar. One of the main Heroes in the movie, Ikaris, has a power set that has been seen before. This power set is almost exactly the same as that of Superman from the DCEU. So this leaves us, fans of both franchises with a question. Who would win if they went head to head. Below I analyze both characters and than leave you with a definitive answer. Superman (Analysis) : Superman’s power set includes strength, flight, laser eyes, speed and low level telepathic connections. He is meant to be the strongest character in the DC universe and has taken on many foes in his long run. Even though people believe that he has only one weakness, Kryptonite, the truth is that he has two other very significant weakness. One is that he d...
