5 February 2015 - South Africa: North West, Brits, Mooinooi protesters throw stones at Methodist Bishop Paul Verryn, tell him to 'voetsek'
The area already is very dangerous for Afrikaner families who since June 2012 have been targeted by more than 70 incidents of very violent crimes, including murders, torture and mutilation-attacks, all by reportedly very aggressive black males who shouted racist language at the Afrikaners.
On 29 January 2015, the children and headmaster of the Afrikaans kindergarten on Maroela Street in Brits'Vinnige Voetjies' were attacked by three armed blacks who drove up in a luxury BMW.
It is also reported by local residents that there seems to be no real difference between the rioters and the criminals who are attacking and looting shops and businesses in the area. The 'rioters' and 'protestors'are also looting shops and attacking white people in their cars.

5 February 2015 - South Africa: North West, Brits, Mooinooi protesters throw stones at Methodist Bishop Paul Verryn, tell him to 'voetsek'
Summary 5 February 2015: The Mooinooi area near Brits in the riot-torn North West region of South Africa now is see as a danger zone by local residents, who are packing up their cars with emergency supplies and getting ready to flee at a moment's notice.
From Monday, the school-buses were accompanied by four police patrol cars to protect the children from the increasingly violent mobs who have closed down the N4 highway near
Mooinooi and Brits. The R104 between Mooinooi and Bokfontein was also closed. Residents are advised to use a private Lonmin Mine road to get past the mobs.
Two Afrikaner journalists were hijacked on Monday and nearly killed by the mob: their lives were saved by a courageous passerby.
Protesters in the Majakaneng village near Mooinooi, North West, threw stones at world-famous liberal Methodist Bishop Paul Verryn and his colleague as they tried to speak to residents on Wednesday, he said.
"The situation here is very tense, the presence of police and the firing of rubber bullets is aggravating the situation," Verryn said."I came here with a colleague to try and mediate and when we were approaching the protesters, they started throwing stones at us and told us to 'voetsek' [go away],'' he said.
He said he and his fellow priest from the local community walked away unharmed.
Police fired rubber bullets to disperse the crowd, he said."Roads have been closed, there is chaos everywhere...I am standing on the side of a road right now and there is a vehicle on fire as we speak," Verryn said.
North West police spokesman Brigadier Thulani Ngubane could not be reached for comment.
Verryn said he would try to approach mine companies in the area to be part of a mediation process with the residents.
On Tuesday, residents complained about water and electricity supply in the area - which municipality has declared bankruptcy. They barricaded roads and burnt tyres.
Earlier, the North West community safety department said protesters were throwing stones at vehicles travelling between Rustenburg and Pretoria.
The stoning of vehicles led to traffic officials closing the road between Mooinooi and Brits.
Motorists were advised to use the Lonmin private road as an alternative.
