Wonder why they don't "tweet" about this carnage?




There was no context I could see with this posting, I guess FOX news felt it said enough, if so, I agree.

Good post Dennis. The human suffering there is unfathomable. And really helping them is complicated and takes the patience and dedication of a saint. A very good book about what works over there and what doesn't is Dead Aid, by Dambisa Moyo.

I worked in Africa for several years, and the people are more concerned with day to day survival than one lion. The top 1% of the population has 99.9% of the food and money. All these people crying over Cecil need to send their donations to people that need to eat and be clothed.

I think Delta, AA and United Airlines need to stop flying rich tourist over to Africa to enjoy their lush vacations while children in Africa are starving.... Wait sorry that is not the politically correct 'Media driven" item of the day for their sheep herd.

The population of sub-Sahara Africa is going to increase from 1 billion to 4 billion by 2100 meaning that over half the world's population will be African then, so the last thing we need to worry about are making sure African children survive to adulthood. We need to get the white liberal do-gooders OUT of Africa and let the Africans stand on their own two feet. Don't feed people who won't control their birth-rates.

from the article up


Quote:
Everyone has suddenly become an expert on Zimbabwean law and is in no doubt that Walter Palmer was guilty of breaking it. Obviously, I must bow to all these people’s superior knowledge, gleaned, no doubt, from careful study of a country of whose history and culture and precise location on the map they are all deeply well informed. But there was I thinking that Zimbabwe was a complete basket case, run by a brutal dictator-for-life called Robert Mugabe who has murdered tens of thousands of his people, impoverished and immiserated a country once known as the “breadbasket of Africa”, expropriated the lands and property of (mostly white) farmers and handed them to his cronies, where the rule of law is virtually unknown. Silly me, eh?
