The scenes of mobs of young and old running with machetes, knives, clubs, and wooden sticks and brutally attacking anyone who speaks or looks differently remind of the scenes from the 1994 genocide in Rwanda.

The country that vowed to work on the African renaissance is now a place where fellow Africans are raped, beaten, burned, and hacked to death.

After the mobs are done with the immigrants, will they go after others who look or speak differently? Is this the end of the "new and free" South Africa?
