  • This shite is happening in every traditional African culture.Every week in Zululand mutilated bodies of children are found abandoned in the bush.There is a belief that "muti"(zulu for medicine)made from children's body parts(usually genitals) can cure aids.Even worse is the belief that they have to be harvested from live bodies....in other words these kids are abducted and their genitals cut from them while they are still alive, and they are then left to bleed to death.There is nothing More..

  • start spreading rumors that witch doctor brains will cure all diseases and attract anyone you want to you and witchcraft will 'mysteriously' fall out of practice. Problem solved

  • It's a shame liberals are so cruel to other people just because they look different.

  • The average IQ in Africa is 70. The continent is hopeless.

    You can see the influence of this deficiency in the USA, where the average African-American IQ is 85, as the American black population is hybrid.

    Africa is a filthy savage cesspool.
