The Forgotten Continent

By: Samwise Winkel

     Africa is called the forgotten continent because of its lack of control when it comes to slaughtering its people. The government is greedy and will stop at nothing to get its way, even if that means killing their own people. The risk of getting AIDS is high because the women there don’t know how to keep their legs closed and the men can’t keep it in their pants. They rape woman on a constant bases, showing you that woman there barely have any rights. Even if they are doing it to keep their children alive; it’s still no excuse.

     Invisible Children is about an army of children being forced to kill all these people, slaughtering their families and friends. I guess after awhile they grow numb to it and then they kill without a second thought about it. They cut off limbs of children and they slaughter little babies who don’t know what’s going on. A girl could be walking and then all of a sudden, her head could be rolling on the ground and kids would be playing soccer with it.

     Africa needs to get their butts into gear and try to help them before asking other countries or continents for help. The sooner they get a game plan and figure out what they’re trying to do, the sooner that they will hopefully become one. Greed and Gluttony are only two of the things that are the words that describe what’s going on. Years of unfulfilled promises and years of unfulfilled treasures as the so called “government” tries to help out its people by lying to them over and over again, but they say that things will get better and stop being at war with themselves;

     Africa also needs to use what natural resources they have or what they haven’t already used and try to get more out of it. They need to stop slaughtering their own people, because by the time they actually find peace, there won’t be anybody left because their won’t be anybody left to be at peace with. They need to get their priorities straightened out and get the stick out of their butts and work together as a team instead of being separated about their ideas.

     Africa’s trade is also very poor and weak, considering how poor of a continent that they are. If they don’t have anybody to trade with, then they won’t get any of the supplies they need to grow and nurture as a whole. They’ll continue being separate and men will rape the woman, woman will continue to open their legs and get AIDS/HIV, families will be torn apart by war, homes will be destroyed, children will continue to slaughter their family and friends by order of some rouge political leader thinking that he should be in charge and everything will go to hell unless they get their act together.
