what about human rights? why shoot to kill demonstrators?
Harrydre good question. But Im also thinking of the way the protesters acted. Earlier in the week they hacked two policemen and some members of a rival union to death at the same spot. On wednesday, they had spears, machetes and quite a number had loaded arms. Aljazeera footage confirmed one protester firing incessantly at the police officers as his colleagues brandished spears and pangas that appeared sharper than those usd by cane cutters in Mumias.
The grave labor issues aside, when you decide to take the law into your own hands and decide to shoot at police officers who are also fellow citizens, parents, husbands, wives e.t.c, you should prepare to be shot at.
