well said...it's very easy to attack the guy.. especially now that he's dead.
But he would have seen and photographed millions of starving people - perhaps that changes you - how can we judge, we haven't seen the things he has.
It's easy to take the moral high ground and 'wonder how he left the girl there to die' - I'm sorry, but that's bullshit. Each year millions of people around the world starve to death. 4 million people have died as a result of genocide in the Congo. Millions more in the Sudan. I don't see anyone else rushing there to help. This guy did more with one picture to raise awareness of the situation in Africa than everyone on this board combined.

i really like your thoughts smokey!
I bet if you were a photographer /journalist in africa and asked a dcotor what they would do if they were a photographer/journalist in the same situation, they would prob say the same thing.. You could drive around for 10 years straight picking up starving children about to be picked off by vultures and not put a dent in the problem (if you didnt die of disease first ) , but a picture of one can make a much bigger difference.
Its sort of ironic that many people can't see the correlation between that photo and the news reporters during hurricane katrina.. flying in air conditioned choppers to do interviews while people died inside the stadium and in hospitals. in terms of numbers its even more suprising , in africa the death from starvation is enormous , so its easy to see how little your intervention would help.. whereas during katrina , any of those reporters could have said " you know what , this story isn't important. saving people is, lets go save people"

sounds like your the one doing the backpeddling
no danger excerpt possible death .. slight problem with that one..
If a fires buring beyond control firefighters do not risk death to save the people inside.
As i have pointed out , they are told not to touch the famine victims for fear of catching disease, just as firefighters are told not to approach a fire without the proper gear. you cant see the correlation because you dont want to admit this guy did something while you do nothing
you obviously dont know much about firefighting..
Thats exactly what they are supposed to do if a fire is beyond control and there is no equipment available.
vultures dont kill people.. they wait tilll your dead
i read it , you obviously didnt , you said and i quote
"From Carters own testimony "nothing" is exactly what he does."
So you quoted carter as saying the words "nothing" as his "testimony" , yet he never said that..
I find it strange you turn " i didnt chase a vulture away" into " i did nothing"
the testimony that you make up doesnt count.
lol dont get in all pissy just because i pointed out the hypocracy in you calling him a bastard for helping and you doing nothing..
So you say.. once again you dont know the whole story , he may have advised a doctor to come and pick the child up.. and he waited after being told NOT TO TOUCH THE FAMINE VICTIMS , did as he was told by rational doctors who know what they are talking about .
You called him an utter bastard , now your saying you were only referring to one particular thing lol , nice backpeddle.
and i pointed out that you dont know he didnt, all we know is he didnt do more than he did. He chose to save thousands of children when he could have just saved one, you havent saved any and think its ok to call him an utter bastard for making that choice.
Besides the fact they are told NOT TO TOUCH THE FAMINE VICTIMS because of disease.
although against the advice of doctors and security officials who are standing beside you. much like a fireman telling you not to run into a burning building thats an inferno. everyone would regret not going in , but in hindsight it would have been a foolish risk
um no i questioned your actions.. read up
thats why were having this debate..
but hey im not trying to change your opinion , just pointing out its hyprocracyhatisblack at yahoo.comComment

You really make some idiotic statements at times. How the fuck is he supposed to help every bad thing he sees? He is helping by taking the picture and making the world aware of it.Actually the US government has given more money to Africa than all the nations of the world combined, and surprisingly enough the Bush adminstration has given more money than any other administration.
Pictures dont feed people.
We are AWARE of starvation, he wanted that shocking picture. He deserved to die just as painful as that little child died.Comment

LOL, really , where exactly?sounds like your the one doing the backpeddling
Really ? ......chasing the Vulture away would have possed what threat to Carter that gives you such a problem ?no danger excerpt possible death .. slight problem with that one..
Like your moma said - look at the birdie - no immediate danger to Carter, no flames, no firefighters just him, the Vulture and the kid and Carters choice not to help her immediately.If a fires buring beyond control firefighters do not risk death to save the people inside.
As i have pointed out , they are told not to touch the famine victims for fear of catching disease, just as firefighters are told not to approach a fire without the proper gear. you cant see the correlation because you dont want to admit this guy did something while you do nothing
.you obviously dont know much about firefighting..
Thats exactly what they are supposed to do if a fire is beyond control and there is no equipment available.
But look - no emaciated little girls and predators ready to eat them in your hero's senario - how supprising.
Actually Vultures don't. They wait untill they are reasonably sure thier prey can offer no resitance to them before going in to feed. When they spread their wings it is simply to protect their prey from other airborne predators so in theory there is more meat for them.vultures dont kill people.. they wait tilll your dead
Elusadate please, you are making very little sense to me in this paragraph.read it , you obviously didnt , you said and i quote
"From Carters own testimony "nothing" is exactly what he does."
So you quoted carter as saying the words "nothing" as his "testimony" , yet he never said that..
I find it strange you turn " i didnt chase a vulture away" into " i did nothing"
[QUOTEthe testimony that you make up doesnt count.][/QUOTE]
I didn't make it up - if you look more carefully at the evidence it came from Carters own testimony and even you may see it is actaully more based in hard fact.
Once again you are indulging in high speculation rather than fact.So you say.. once again you dont know the whole story , he may have advised a doctor to come and pick the child up.. and he waited after being told NOT TO TOUCH THE FAMINE VICTIMS , did as he was told by rational doctors who know what they are talking about .
Then let me make my possition so clear that even you can understand it - Carter was in a possition to help the kid - he chose to simply stand and stare - The act of a proper uncaring bastard. If you don't see that then I am truelly sorry for you.You called him an utter bastard , now your saying you were only referring to one particular thing lol , nice backpeddle.
Do you have a reading & comprehension problem from Carters own testimony or are you just clutching at your own made up straws now ?and i pointed out that you dont know he didnt, all we know is he didnt do more than he did. He chose to save thousands of children when he could have just saved one, you havent saved any and think its ok to call him an utter bastard for making that choice.
Besides the fact they are told NOT TO TOUCH THE FAMINE VICTIMS because of disease.
Where are you attempting to take this thread now ? - there are in fact no firemen and no burning buildings anywhere in Carters original photograph or his testimony.although against the advice of doctors and security officials who are standing beside you. much like a fireman telling you not to run into a burning building thats an inferno. everyone would regret not going in , but in hindsight it would have been a foolish risk
Oh Really ?um no i questioned your actions.. read up thats why were having this debate..

the vultures posed no threat , the girl walked away , what part of that dont you understand.. chasing away vultures does nothing.. so much for your great deed
thats why its called an example not a recreation , not suprising you cant figure that out.
lol "based on hard fact "
you said he said he did "nothing"
he didnt say that , thus you made it up..
isn't hard to figure out.
unless you were there we are both speculating. Im just being realistic..
unfortunately thats not what happened. in your made up theory thats what happened.. in reality , he saved thousand of kids who could be saved while you would have been running around chasing vultures getting diseases
if you dont see the simple fact he saved more kids than you and you think that makes him an "utter bastard" and i suppose you somehow better than him.. then your not being rational.. Maybe your jealous he actually did something.
the real testimony or the stuff you made up ?
yup read up..hatisblack at yahoo.comComment

Wizhard are you aware how many children were/are starving in Africa? You wouldn't ever stop picking up the starving kids! Lets not condemn a dead man we know nothing about. He was over there rasing awareness for the situation which is more than the vast majority of people have ever done for our fellow humans in Africa.Last edited by cones; 03-11-2007, 08:11 PM.Comment

LOL, I really can't see the point of debating the issue raised in this thread with you any longer as most of what you have to say is either inaccurate, or completely out of context with the threads issue. LOL, you seem hell-bent on "stonewalling" regardless of what facts contrary to your opinions are presented to you.
LOL, LOL, you are a mule sir - goodbye.

But taking this pic and not helping at least one certaine child shows that the photographer had a cold heart and was only doing his job.Last edited by Amadora; 03-12-2007, 06:14 AM.TrafficOX is a high-quality adult SKIM & PopUnder traffic from a wide list of adult websites.

which one of hundreds of thousands of kids should he have helped again?..only the one in the picture?
Some of you keyboard stay at home fuckers sure do have alot of mouth and no common sense to back it up.
I swear some of you live in la la land. In an industry that spends millions of dollars entertaining at conventions several times a year..you pick on one photographer that isnt even alive anymore instead of standing up and doing something yourselves. Why not hit up all these millionaire sponsors to help with the famine children . Oh thats right, its easier to talk shit than to actually do something yourselves.Comment

i gues thats why multiple people quoted what i said and agreed and nobody agreed with you so far
you mean the facts you made up ?
Why beat around the bush ,you quoted carter as saying he said he did "nothing" , he never said that because you made it up..
You can try and convince yourself otherwise but anyone who can read can see you made it up
if you used one more "LOL" you might have been believable
