“No Weapons Allowed!” — South Africa Blasts Anti-Immigration Groups With Traditional Arms Ban

The South African Police Service (SAPS) has officially laid down the law ahead of the massive, high-stakes anti-illegal immigration marches scheduled for next Tuesday, June 30. Activist groups have heavily promoted this date as a final “deadline” for undocumented foreigners to leave the country, causing tensions to skyrocket.

To keep the peace, top security chiefs dropped a massive reality check, announcing that carrying any form of weapon—including traditional ones like spears or sticks—is strictly banned.
