Why Are all Demonstrations in Uganda Violent? - 2007/04/19 23:02

There is a saying that 'He who owns a Hummer Thinks all that he sees is a Nail".Museveni once said that He came to power through fire and he believes he will go through fire.Why can't there be any peaceful Demonstration in Uganda? The Police are supposed to guard the laws of the country but for the case of Uganda there is no longer any Rule of law we can be proud of as Ugandans.I was so shocked to witness a shameful and embarressing brakedown of the country Judicial system (Court Siege).Infact,we proved to the world that we don't practice what we preach.Infact,I'm so perplexed to read on our Daily News Papers that the president praised the kiboko squad , that those people are the community who organised themselves in a self defence group against these rioters..Does it mean the community are free to take the laws into there hands?Supposing next time one or two different groups organised themselves may be with spear,pangas,bows and arrows,will the police look on giving the president time to praised them over the death of maybe one million people?I think by arresting MPS or riotors ,the government trying to treat then symtoms rather than the disease itself.Post edited by: admin, at: 2007/04/19 23:52
