Some People are Idiots

Dumbshit quote of the day:

"We are very happy that this thing is happening so that the north will learn their lesson,"
Anthony Umai of Nigeria on Christian mobs attacking Muslims and burning down mosques in two days of violence in Onitsha in which 93 people are reported to have died.

Sometimes violence is perpetuated by villains and evil masterminds. And sometimes it's just the idiots of the world who move things along.

Not the same region, but speaking of hate and stupidity: I'm reading several books on the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, and I'm sort of speechless about the whole story. I think I'm rapidly loosing any optimism I had for that part of Africa.
