http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7413268.stm I mean really. WTF. This is part of why I have very little sympathy for Africa.

I'm more of a fan of how they killed pygmy people and ate them because they were supposedly magical....Africa is an impossible place to fix...I know people will say "Well if the US will just help a little bla bla bla"....but we aren't the worlds daycare

You shouldn't equate Africa with a bunch of scared and bloodthirsty villagers.

Once. In one town. On a small scale.

Wow America and England did the same thing so we can't really talk

However, that was at the point when they were the most advanced in the world. Again, it wasn't on a large scale. Kenya should probably be a little more up-to-date than burning witches.

Why do you generalise an entire continent on the basis of one village? Why should Kenya be expected to be at the same level as the most developed country in the world? People like you make me have very little sympathy for rich American teens despite the fact I'm intelligent enough to know everyone needs help.

This was one group of people in Kenya. It doesn't symbolise Kenya as a whole, nor, as you seem to suggest in your post, does it represent Africa.

Remember, we did that in America once upon a time. And look where we are now. Take that as you will.

As said above, It is a minority that did it. Its good to see that they are actually putting in an effort to capture them.
