This kind of brutality can only be justified when melted down on corrupt politicians in africa as a whole,they are the root cause of stealing,kidnapping,wars and all the ills in africa.African thieves or burglars are in most cases circumstancial,they steal to stay alive.

Some times i think blacks are more cruel to their fellow blacks than whites on blacks.The cruelty of barbarians,it is like the time of inquisition in europe,the catholic church saga.

So you have suddenly become a judge/jury. The person is innocent, and those who you feel are guilty are the ones who deserve it??

You, my friend are as "foolishly barbaric" as "people" you've just mentioned for advocating a fellow human like you beget such a fate.
You should detest yourself.

I responded when You started talking crap about the States. If its so bad,

Lolita, whether I badmouth America is none of your bloody business. Unlike your wretched country, there's freedom of speech here and I have the right to talk about the place ESPECIALLY when it was a reply to someone else NOT YOU.

Mind your freaking business. So simple and i wont even acknowledge your pathetic existence. Save that "ticket money" and send it to your people instead. If anyone needs money, it's Liberia.

Congrats. Defender of The States. The same country I've lived in long before you were smuggled in as a mail order bride. Better shut the hell up before I expose you.

Re: I Can't Believe We Still Do This In Nigeria by Hero(m): 11:12pm On Jul 07, 2008
Dude, first of all-- you'all need to stop attempting to change the subject, why attempt to turn this into some kind of competition? Second of all if you are going to play such games at least do so with credible counter responses; you just sat there and told a bold face lie, as usual, in some asinine attempt to get one up on the AA. How stupid can you be attempting such a thing, knowing damn well that all it'll take is a simple google to prove you to be the lying ass you are?

By 2003, sex had replaced race as the primary factor in life expectancy in the United States, with African-American females expected to live longer than European American males born in that year.[42] In the same year, the gap in life expectancy between American whites (78.0) and blacks (72.cool had decreased to 5.2 years, reflecting a long term trend of this phenomenon.[42] By 2004, "the trend toward convergence in mortality figures across the major race groups also continued," with white-black gap in life expectancy dropping to 5 years.[43] The current life expectancy of African Americans as a group is comparable to those of other groups who live in countries with a high human development index.

Do not attempt to play a stupid game of comparison with us, because I'll make you look a fool every time. As the quoted piece has shown, we AA have problems, yes, though we are resolving ours; what progress have Nigeirans in Nigeria made? Show something, becaue most of all I've seen, read about and heard of is mass cases of regression back in to worst conditions than they were in decades passed. This is sad, and I really want to know what the hell is going on. I want to someday see a strong and prosperous Nigeria in the mid of other strong and prosperous nations standing strong.

I want to know what is the problem and what plans are on ground to solve them, if any. Many of you talk about leaders being the problem as if the leaders are not the same as all of you; when in fact they are the same as all of you are. You all come from the same ethnic groups in which all harness the same values and customs, so if something is wrong with you leaders then I can only assume that something is in fact wrong with cultural mentality of the Nigerian people, for the most part. You can not tell me that if those who are the leaders today and in who were so in the past were replaced some random others of the Nigerian society that those random other would not have acted just as corruptly as those who've had and have the opportunity today to lead with greed. I'd have to be blind and irrational to believe such a thing.

All good nourishment for growth starts at the roots and works its way up. If the grounds in which the roots are buried are negatively corrupted then then that in which they spawn will also be so. I think my Igbo mother in law was correct in her assumption of that Nigeria is harshly inflicted with a case of what she calls "The Big Man syndrome" in which places in the minds of many that they have to do any and everything to be the boss, to get to the top, to be the leader or the chief and to stay at such level. Humm, as we Americans say, there's too many wanting chiefs and not enough content Indians.

How are you solving it? I'd like to know. With all your rappers and coonery entertainers. What exactly is it that you people are doing to resolve your issues. Teen mothers, theft, gangs, homicide.

How dare you say you people say you are resolving these issues, when these are the very things your "musicians" are ADVOCATING IN THEIR MUSIC?

Do you even think when you spew such bullshit? Do you sincerely think if Nigeria has half, infact just 10% of the opportunities blacks americans have, we'd have the problems that we do?

You talk about teen pregnancy.

Since the 1990s, many measures associated with teen pregnancy in the United States have shown improvement. For African American teens, the rates of pregnancy have declined, as has the percent of high-school males who report having impregnated someone (Leigh & Huff 2006). Although female teens are not always impregnated by male teens, the increased and consistent condom use among African American male teens undoubtedly also has contributed to this decline in teen pregnancy.

http://www.teenpregnancy.org/resources/research/researchconf/leigh_abstract.pdf

Teen pregnancy rates in the United States declined steadily from 1991 to 2005—from 60 out of 1000 teenagers in 1991 to 40.5 out of 1000 in 2005. In 2006, however, the teen pregnancy rate increased to about 42 out of 1000. Approximately one-third of young women in the United States become pregnant during their teens. More than 80% of teen pregnancies are unintended and unintentional. The highest teen birth rate occurs in Hispanic women (83 out of 1000 in 2006).

Declining teen pregnancy rates are thought to be attributed to more effective birth control practice and decreased sexual activity among teens. The most dramatic reduction in teen pregnancy—23%—has occurred among African American teenagers.

http://www.womenshealthchannel.com/teenpregnancy/index.shtml

You talked about Gangs, not realizing that gang membership has risen amongst all groups except AA who's rates have remained steady for years now. You fools love to just make up shit. Present documentation to prove your rubbish if you're so content on speaking it.

The gains in black buying power reflect more than just population growth and consumer inflation, Humphreys said. He also pointed to the increasing number of blacks who are starting their own businesses. As evidence, he cited Census data released since his last buying power study that showed the number of black-owned businesses increased 45 percent from 1997 to 2002, far exceeding the 10 percent increase in the overall number of U.S. businesses. Black buying power grew 165 percent from 1990 ($318 billion) to 2007 ($845 billion). That compares with 134 percent growth in disposable income for the total population.

The share of buying power controlled by African American consumers will rise in 47 states, with the largest market share increases coming in Mississippi, Maryland and Georgia. They also represent the states where black consumers account for the largest share of the total: Mississippi (24.3 percent), Maryland (22.2 percent) and Georgia (20.8 percent), along with the District of Columbia (30.6 percent).

African American buying power will total $845 billion in 2007 and is projected to top $1.1 trillion by 2012 -- a 34 percent increase over the five-year period.


At current the AA market is larger than that of Mexico, in who's market is over 4 times as large as Nigeria.

African Americans now make up a greater proportion of Southern college students than they do of that region’s population at large, according to a new report. But while closing that persistent gap is certainly significant, the report highlights others that still remain.
