The video was posted by journalist @ZANewsFlash, who criticised the situation.

Prince Kaybee weighs in on the clip

Prince Kaybee was one of the many netizens who did not consider the video funny. He called out the white man for punching the man and the other for drawing his weapon at an unarmed member.

"Nothing is funny here, the white guy is a coward for landing a sucker punch on someone that’s trying to defuse an altercation. Another thing is they are armed swearing and harming the unarmed knowing that they can pull the trigger and scream self defence, disgusting!!!"

"How is this funny to you? A black person attacked by a white person like that? The guy is assaulted for trying to stop what could be a fight. Or you do not care because you think the guy is an EFF member and therefore he deserves it?
"And when EFF responds, you guys will attack us.The guy might not even be a fighter. Could be a community member. But you are excited because you'd be happy if it was the EFF."
