I have to agree with Fletch here. I am myself a Nigerian citizen that has been living in the United States for a while now. I understand that it is sad for these children mother to just left them in a country where they have no clue how to do things, but it is not as big of a deal to receive that much media attention. There are things 100 times worse happening all around the world, and there is no interest towards it at all. It is not only the Media that PICKS what it wants to make public or take interest in, but the COUNTRY. DON'T get me wrong, i am very happy to be in this country, as it has many more opportunities than Nigeria does, but if the US is going to patrol what goes on in the world, then do it fulltime. They should not just PICK and CHOOSE by what they can get back in return. There is a major Tribal War that has been going on in Africa for decades now, and the US has not even stepped in once and said, "Hey, what is going on here?"

NOW if that land had some kind of valuable natural resources, the US would be all over the case. This not right, if you will pick and choose, then do not start as the police in the first place, the media is guilty of the same crime as well.

I am voicing out my opinion and before you fucking non pussy getting flamers start to say things like.

"If you don't like here, go back to africa."

READ MY FUCKING POST FIRST and UNDERSTAND IT!
