Heck Andy, you shouldn't be surprised. There are millions of folks still governmentally operating on ancient laws. Just look at Pakistan, Iran, Durkastan, etc.

True, but considering the Gazzillions of dollars of aid and stuff they sink into Ethiopia you think it would move just a tad out of the Stone Age...

Still goes on? Mark my word, it is coming to a city near you! I've already seen kids with tube like ear rings thru the lobe flesh that you could stick your pinky finger thru.

At least they are making it eaiser to cuff them to something.

We are regressing, we've got turd world adornments, jungle music that was once someone beating on a hollow log for bass to communicate, now it's to show your gangsta rap affiliation. We've gone from hieroglyphics that they are still trying to deciper, to the modern written language and now we are back to modern hieroglyphics that no one can understand again. We have gone from sippie cups as toddlers to drinking from a glass back to adult sippie cups with all the sport drinks & water bottles. Doomed, we are all doomed.

That always creeps me out. It makes them look like a Star Wars charachter.

Be a real shame if it's(because it's sex is rather ambiguous) lip were to suddenly snap making it so that there were no more lip plate.

Have a dangling hemroid from their face that was once a lip. Would be just terrible.

"But all the conflicts within the community are still resolved at traditional "donga" bouts, much as they have been for hundreds of years.
There is a strict code of conduct for fighters. They are not to allowed to use the stick as a bayonet and you can't hold it horizontally.

If you kill your opponent, one of your female relatives is given to the dead man's family as compensation."

Talk about primitive

that lip thingy?

I cannot imagine what they were thinking

Stupidity is not a black or white thing.

It is a people thing.

There is, however, an appreciable difference in how stupidity is manifested by different cultures.

In some cultures, idiocy like putting a plate in your lip takes hold.

Other cultures express their stupidity by voting for John Kerry.

That Gothic chick surely isn't taking that baby to the bar!

Nevermind, I missed the Africa part.

The stick fighting? Why give up a well-established way of settling dispute? If it aint broke . . .

But guys, you think that the majority of programs out there are meant to pull them out of the stone age? You been drinking your kool-aid again?

Modern bleeding hearts DON'T want to bring them out of the 'pure state' that these people live in

. Why that would be imperialistic and racially insensitive.

Are you suggesting that non-bleeding hearts would want to bring them out of this "pure state" too? If that's where they've gotten themselves until now, why argue with it?
