freeclimb9 Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 I read that story earlier in the morning, and immediately thought of the scene in the Two Towers at the edge of Faragorn of the Orcs arguing over eating the Hobbits. But it wasn't funny. Tribalism controls much of the goings on in Africa. I spent about a year traveling in Africa --even hung out with some pygmies (they smoke a lot of reefer, BTW), and got exposed to much ethnicism. The story disgusts me, but doesn't surprise me. Quote

Peter_Puget Posted January 8, 2003 Author Posted January 8, 2003 What's weird is that if they were just shot and left to rot we would think nothing of it. Quote
allthumbs Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 We think nothing of it now, whatcha talkin bout Holmes? Quote
freeclimb9 Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 What's weird is that if they were just shot and left to rot we would think nothing of it. More accurately, "if they were just shot and left to rot" it would never have been reported so widely. Quote
Peter_Puget Posted January 8, 2003 Author Posted January 8, 2003 We think its a joke but we hear of it only because its people eating people and the UN sends a team out. That's truly a pathetic joke. Quote
Peter_Puget Posted January 8, 2003 Author Posted January 8, 2003 Wait haven't I heard something like this before: Why yes I have - In state sponsered papers throughout the Middle East! Plainly and repeatedly those intrepid journalalist have reported the use of the blood of Arab babies in Jewish religious ceremonies! Maybe that's why the UN is involved in the Middle East a swell.

Peter_Puget Posted January 8, 2003 Author Posted January 8, 2003 No wait I also heard about people eating people in North Korea! You know the place that had 2 million of its citizens starve to death during the 90s. Thank goodness the UN has been involved there too. Quote
gregm Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 two things: Â 1) is the US supporting these guys in any way? i remember "US rapes nuns in el salvador" as a protester catch phrase a while back and now i'm envisioning "US eats pygmies in the congo!" Â 2) article states "We hear reports of MLC and RCD-N commanders feeding on sexual organs of Pygmies, apparently believing this would give them strength,". will i be able to run like a thoroughbred from ?

Peter_Puget Posted January 8, 2003 Author Posted January 8, 2003 Of course here I am not referring to recreational eating! Quote
freeclimb9 Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 There recently was a videotaped "art" performance by a Chinese guy who ate some parts of a stillborn child. Quote
Peter_Puget Posted January 8, 2003 Author Posted January 8, 2003 Documented proof the some Japanese officers ate the livers of captured soldiers in WWII. Quote
vegetablebelay Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 So if you know that this stuff goes on, why the long face Peter Pygm..er, Puget? Quote
Peter_Puget Posted January 8, 2003 Author Posted January 8, 2003 I guess it's the difference between cognition and understanding. Â I just went for a cup of coffee got off the elevator and saw a great pair of legs walking by. Luckily she was going for coffee too. All the way I was thinking "man is she hot." The when I say her face I realized she was about 16 years old. The I thought:I JUST HAD A TRASK MOMENT! Quote
