South African miners gunned down by police (Distressing images included)

Marikana- Johannesburg.
Police in the South African city of Johannesburg killed 34 people and wounded 78 during a mass rioting of miners. The incident took place at the mining site of British registered company- Lonmin.
South Africa it appears, is unable to rid itself off the negative energy of apartheid, inequality, murder and violence. Poverty and lack of education are a catalyst to such vile unpleasant outcomes. The mining industry is currently experiencing a slump thanks to low demand and the current economic crises. Are these workers aware of the bigger picture before rioting and demanding for change?
Thursday's grim scene highlights South Africa's shaky leg in the direction of democracy and equality.
