Foreign National Beaten To Death By A Mob In South Africa by Ironfaceman(op): 11:28am On Oct 23

A mob has beaten a foreign national to death during a protest in the South African port city of Durban, amid a wave of anti-immigrant tension.

Police said the group approached the man as he stood by the side of a road in Durban’s central business district

The victim was allegedly assaulted by a group of about 50 people and was declared dead at the scene, a police statement said.

Police did not reveal the nationality of the man or details of the march.

They said the victim was in his 30s or early 40s, and they were still trying to identify suspects in the attack.

Anti-migrant marches

Durban has been at the epicentre of months of protests against foreign nationals, with looting and violence erupting after an anti-migrant march in the city two weeks ago.

Demonstrations calling for government action against African migrants who entered the country illegally began in June, with some escalating into violence.

Nigeria, Mozambique, Malawi and other countries have said some of their citizens have been killed in xenophobic attacks in South Africa.

South African authorities disputed some of those claims, saying that some deaths were linked to criminal activity.

Tens of thousands of migrants have left South Africa in recent months in one of the largest mass exoduses in years to avoid the violence.

The government also said that many were deported for not having the required papers to be in the country.

South Africa is Africa’s largest economy and migrants have moved to the country for opportunities. But communities in South Africa say there are not enough jobs and public services are overburdened.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has denounced anti-migrant violence but acknowledged that weak border control systems allowed undocumented migrants to travel to and stay in the country.

Government figures show there are about 2.4 million foreign nationals living among South Africa’s population of 62 million.

The world is undergoing a change in order.
There is a shift from morality to immorality.

The order is becoming such that evil is being accepted as good.
That is why you can see Europeans (not immigrants) openly supporting the Gazan people, who are all terrorists, and demonizing those who support Israel.
That is why there are people who are shamelessly supporting Clancy (who took out her three children) in her trial and demonizing those who don't.
That is why you have some Westerners, in the name of "leftists," supporting Iran instead of supporting their own country.

Even with this ill-treatment of immigrants, some of our youths are still rushing to South Africa in their thousands in search of greener pastures or educational opportunities.

I like this... Every other African/3rd world governments must now focus on transforming their local economies, restoring civic trust, and creating high quality domestic opportunities to check this nonsense worldwide. It's a welcome development. To appreciate the light you must pass through darkness. To make heaven you must go through hell. Make we face am once and for all and stop crying like little chicks

France is not protesting migrants, Migrants are destroying the lives of ordinary citizens.

Migrations is allowed. Illegal migration is what most of these nations are fighting.
