^uhhh...NICE POINT!
However Africa and Asia were the ones who traveled much faster than anyone else and got all the land (until the slower ones decided to kill them off) so their not really the fat 25 year old, more like the ****ing fast kenyans...:D

no, Egypt did, and all they did was build 3 pyramids, wage a few wars and drink from the nile.

Asia is the nerdy geek that Europe beat up in the 15th century for his lunch money.. lunch money here being gun powder and other technology

The world is Grey. There are no good guys or bad guys. Terrorists killed people on 9/11 and now America kill people in the Middle east. 9/11 hurts as a lot of people lost their friends and family but nobody seems to care that there are people in Iraq that are feeling the same thing. We can't make people change their views, as Ignorance is supported by the Ignorant but we can make small differences on our own and sometimes thats what matters.

The world is such a sad place.
Now you may not give a single **** about this but, Awareness needs to be raised.
What did you do for Christmas 2008? Play with your nice little lego set that you got from Mummy? Well, no you probably played your new Xbox 360 game, but thats not the point. In northern Uganda, Africa (I've only heard about this, I'm not researching it *not exact accurate facts*) 600 people were slaughtered in a small village.
600 people may not be much, but how about this: The war that spawned this slaughter has been going on for about 20 years+. Ever heard of it? Probably not.
Again you may not give a ****. But tell your friends, tell them to watch something like Blood diamond, who knows? Your friend could be the next Martin Luther King Jr.
...
Okay maybe not.
But hey, the glass is half full right?

umm.. tyvm

Well, I was reading all the posts and I was impressed, nearly convinced, and very grateful for everyones opinions.
But, well, you ruined it.
Since other countries were so racist in the older days like 19th century countries like Africa have been disadvantaged which, therefore they have no ability to help anyone.
To everyone who doesn't care, please just raise awareness, I'm not asking to dig into your pockets (and couches) to raise funds for Africa. Please, wheres your morality these days?
Thanks everyone, well apart from HomgCharlie.

AIDs: No known origin, though I've heard "OMG TEH GAYZ DID IT" more then Africa, they just have it most places because some areas commonly believe having sex with a virgin will cure it (that includes babies).
Eboli: From jungles, not people.
Pirates: ....You're ****ing kidding right?

I do agree America needs to stop helping every country that can't stand on it's legs and then have China pay off our debt, but American teens can go die, this generation makes me sick to be called an American.

You, my not good sir, are the disgrace that makes me want to leave this plague ridden, socially and economically backwards country for one that doesn't try to make everyone happy and rewards work over skin color or gender.

Cynicism is awesome.

FINALLY someone with at least a little morality. Thank You!
 
Re: Can you see this thread?

I despise all these teens who cry because of no iPod or cause they didn't get the latest belt.
They act stupid.
They LOOK stupid.
They're stupid.

Really, I don't care where AIDs came from, what the hell does it matter where it came from?It's here now and that's what matters.

But now that I think about it, locating it's origin point could maybe help develop a cure?I don't have the full info on AIDs so...I don't know what's totally goin down, but I should probably look it up more so that I can say more than "Um...It...Killz pplz?"
Pirates?Pirates?Really?
There are a MILLION things that matter more than lowly poor pirates right now.
Disease, Nukes, Korea, That mystery meat that's been in your fridge since 1995, and don't forget Terrorists.

Homg charlie I thought you were cool!!! My parents are from there (more or less my dad is Jamaican but originally Jamaicans were once africans).


Anyway, I skim read this topic and here is my hasty reply.

Africa gave lots centuries ago. To Greece, Spain lots of countries that visited.

Africa was full of knowledge and wisdom. It is a large continent and the people did not go exploring like the Europeans with their boats.

Africa gave gold and knowledge in exchange for goods and also gave as gifts. But there came a time when Europeans decided to ROB Africa and come with guns and start wars and slavery. Also the arabs came along and tried to enforce muslim belief. Egypt was under foreign rule many times thoughout its history by many different nations. South Africa was taken by the British etc.

You took diamonds from Sierra Leone, you took oil, you took gold and you built America with slave hands. England also grew rich. Now black people aren't good enough?

Also, is it any surprise that so many blacks are ignorant? The families of slaves were broken, white peope raped the women and beat the men and tehn they seperated the families. Its hard to know where you're going when you don't know you history or even your next of kin. Black people no doubt degenerated as a result and its been a difficult climb ever since. The same thing would have happened to any other nation that has been torn from its home land and abused in such a way.
Africa could not hold up to the European weaponary and so many were enslaved and taken to Jamaica and to America.

Now you say what has Africa got for you? Nothing because you already raped the land and left Africans with corruption, desease and famine. Any nation that is living in poverty will develop illnesses. The people don't even have much clean water. Think before you speak. Why is Africa the way it is now? You tell me.


Sorry if my post is a bit all over the place but that comment just upset me. Everything I am saying here is the truth. But I don't hold teh people alive today responsible. I just wish that people would see things for what they are and realise the cause and not just say rubbish.
 
Re: Can you see this thread?

You know what I can see why England had such great weaponary advances in those times. England was always under constant threat as it is an island off of the continent and it was always having to defend itself against romans, saxons etc.

But what you are saying is true. Had Africa not been defeated in battle maybe things would have gone the other way and black people would be tyrants and eastern europe would be under african rule or something. People are bad everywhere it seems. All that a person needs is a chance to get power and when they take it it corrupts them eventually.
