Many moons ago, when I was young, dumb, and psych major in college, we had a term for it - 'operant conditioning'. A simple, repetitive stimulus/reward exercise to train the lab rat. Essentially the same way they train the parasite class in our country, but they're taking it to the next obscene level. This was no accident with the Kenyan arriving. Book it.

WOW! The mods removed my post? For what?

Maybe an environmentalist mod didn’t like a Great White being manhandled.

Maybe our Great Black is having a good time!
