The use of force � A tricky subject

Presidential security blinked first. It happened at the cost of the President’s dignity and that of the nation. Batswana are enraged.

My friends say that presidential security should have sent the South Africans home in body bags. I am sure they were capable of doing so. But someone had to be the bigger person and our men and women stepped up to the plate. In the end, the President was delivered safely to his destination, there was no damage to property and no loss of life.  There could not have been a better outcome.
