Every American of African descent should thank God everyday that s/he wasn’t born in Africa.

And it should be explained to them that African Moslems ran the African slave trade. Moslems would raid a non-moslem village and, after satisfying their lusts for rape and murder, would take the remainder to sell as slaves.

They should also be made aware that 0bama0 is not a descendent of African slaves, like they are, but the descendent of African slave-traders.

I’ve been to Africa a bunch of times. The people are friendly and you rarely see all the crap that makes the news.

I wonder the same thing. Safari is one thing, but in general I’d have to think it’s people who make themselves feel better by observing the misery of others.

Before we met, my wife did a stint with USAID in South Africa. After we met and were married, she seriously tried to get me to go to Namibia. She could make tons more money there as a physician than in the US. And although I think I'd actually love jumping in a Jeep and going out alone into that ancient, sparsely populated desert to explore on foot, I just couldn't wrap my mind around sharing the dunes unarmed with the rogue lions they have running around out there.

Looked like beautiful, beautiful country though.

Do I regret not going? Mixed feelings about it. My wife loved Africa when she was there. And turning our back on the money was difficult.
