(Reuters) - Thousands marched on an Ebola treatment center in Sierra Leone on Friday after a former nurse alleged that the deadly virus was invented to conceal "cannibalistic rituals" at the ward, a regional police chief said.

Angry crowds gathered outside the country's main Ebola hospital in Kenema in the West African country's remote east where dozens are receiving treatment for the virus and threatened to burn it down and remove the patients.

Well, THAT’LL certainly bring the Ebola outbreak under control....

[tet68]

I know, lets protest by hanging around the source
of one of the most virulent plagues known to mankind...

All cultures are equal.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Lets stop sending these primitives US tax dollars...Its hopeless, between the ignorance and the corruption its just money down the drain, or worse.

The only way US “help” works, is if we conquer and occupy a country and make the rules...kind of like Germany after WWII..THAT’s what made the Marshall Plan work. we should have done that in Iraq!! why bother going into a country to ‘save “it from brutality, if you’re not going to run the show at least for a decade.

With all the information available to even those living in BFE 3d world hellholes, how are there people who believe stupid crap like that-did the whole town have a dumbass attack?

If they can’t even get past a dark age mentality, no wonder it is an undeveloped nation...

Well the protesters who have rifled the treatment center must thenceforth be considered refugees who should then be flown to the U.S. and scattered around the country in the name of American compassion.

Right?

I’m all for that-give them the option of becoming colony of the US, Britain, etc and learning to do something useful for their country-if they don’t want that, just stop all aid to the place, and let it stay in the Stone Age, and screw the UN...

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Hey, let’s go catch Ebola so we can stop those dirty cannibals! #mobrule

You’re exactly right. You have to stay long enough to impact and change the culture. That could be for generations.

[meatloaf]

Wannabe Darwin award candidates.

[dainbramaged]

Like Paul Harvey used to say, “It’s not one world”.

[Pearls Before Swine]

How long before an Ebola infected person... dead or alive.. willingly or not... is fitted with an explosive belt and placed in a crowded area? Hmmmm?

[fella]

That's nothing New Hampshire is making plans to bring it here.

especially since after the fire it will be easier to remove the bodies.

There are reasons why Third World countries are Third World countries. This is an example of one good reason.

"a former nurse alleged that the deadly virus was invented to conceal "cannibalistic rituals" at the ward...."

That's almost as weird as the allegations "Truthers" make.

Not that cannibalism. This cannibalism spoken of by the President of Uganda.

"KAMPALA paryers were held at Kololo Airstrip. President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni attended the prayers and gave the following speech..."

"I would, therefore, appeal to you as the Balokole Movement, to help us enlighten people to stop eating these things they should not be eating. Being primates, monkeys are close to human beings. It is, therefore, a form of cannibalism to eat them. That is why the monkeys, baboons and other primates suffer from the same sicknesses that affect human beings. It is like eating your brother. This is point number one."

Lots of folks moved from West Africa (where Sierra Leone is) to resort areas on the Rockies for over a decade.
