About 200 people were killed in violence in Haiti’s capital over the weekend, many in a massacre in which a gang boss reportedly targeted Vodou practitioners.
The killings of at least 110 people were overseen by a “powerful gang leader” convinced that his son’s illness was caused by followers of the religion, according to the civil organisation the Committee for Peace and Development (CPD).
“He decided to cruelly punish all elderly people and Vodou practitioners who, in his imagination, would be capable of sending a bad spell on his son,” a statement from the Haiti-based group said. “The gang’s soldiers were responsible for identifying victims in their homes to take them to the chief’s stronghold to be executed.”

Wait until the Voodou curse on him happens in retaliation.

Things to be thankful for: NOT living in Haiti.
No doubt the sharks around the island will eat well this week.

Well they do take pride in their story of the Haitians selling their souls to the devil to get rid of the French.
Vodoun is the granddaddy of the bunch. It comes from West Africa and is mostly spirit and ancestor worship.
Vodou is the Haitian variant. Its roots are in Western Africa Vodoun and Catholicism. Here be animal sacrifices.
Voodoo is the Cajun variant. Its Southern US roots come mainly from Louisiana and build on Vodou. If a doll’s involved, it’s voodoo.
And they said a mis-spent youth studying the occult would amount to nothing! lol
What a magnificent culture.We have so much to learn.
Somehow “That vodou that you do” just won’t be the same.
If ever a place needs to be colonized and civilized..
You say that like it’s a bad thing. I mean, I guess every one of them is a child of God, but they’ve literally sold their soul to Satan. Funny that it takes a crime boss to clean up the streets.
Trump proven right again. It IS a s**thole country.
They also eat long pig. These people need to be invited to the U.S. in order to strengthen our diversity. I suggest a housing project in Martha’s Vineyard.
