Wow. Great.
Is he going to bring back infanticide too? Ritual sacrifice?
They should go back to their Inca roots and give up the wheel too.

Read up on the Aztecs and other meso-American cultures. Check out the Temple of Skulls at Chichen Itza (Maya) or the sacrifical knives at the Templo Mayor in Mexico City (Aztec) or the wall painting of the torture and killing of defeated enemies at Bonampak (Maya again). Or read up on the children who were buried alive by Incas for sacrifical purposes. This is the mindset that Morales brings to government, make no mistake. Whipping would be the least of it.The Aztecs were sacrificing so many victims each day that they had channels built along the edge of the pyramids for all the blood to flow. At their peak they were killing hundreds a day. Not just "killing" - they would plunge a knife into the victims chest and pull out the still-beating heart and throw it on a charcoal burner.
Noble Savage, indeed.

"Whenever I did something wrong, I received punishment with a chicote [the loose end of a rope], and always believed that the system our ancestors used was better than the system in the northern justice system. It's much more democratic," he said. He must mean democrats. Celebrate diversity. Inca Sharia, what a concept. This dork has also praised the taliban and said he wants to run Bolivia just like them. I think some international observer report said that the Taliban was running things just like Bolivia, or the Marxist FARC narcotrafficantes or something. The synergies abound!
