Kill The Criminals!

The Deputy Security Minister of South Africa recently made a number of stunning statements

these included:

“..kill the bastards [criminals] if they threaten you..”

“..I want no warning shots..”

“The constitution says criminals must be kept safe, but I say no”

The disturbing thing about this is that it shows a fundamental disregard for the constitution that has been previously hinted at by other actions/statements of the department.
