A powerful message

Honestly, they are some of the most happiest kids in the world. They ae greatful for every little thing. Their mothers' love them, and obviously, we love them. Does Make Poverty History ring a bell?

wot iz make poverty history?... ;/
Poverty will never be made history. It's fact that a lot of kids in Africa never have received any aid or love. How the hell are they happy? No family, no possessions, nothing. They'll probably die of starvation or AIDS.

And anyway, what a great sucess Live 8 was. Sure, the G8 leaders decided to give more money to the poorer countries, but it didn't help Niger did it. The supplies arrived whay too late and as a result, thousands died.

The fact is it shows the world is not arrogant and obnoxious completely, Someone does care about them or else there wouldnt off been anything happening at all. You cant fight against something that is envitable, of course lots would die its really sad to say so but its true but people somewhere right now are making a difference.

Bit late though now. I was saying, the huge loss could of been reduced if the world had acted more promtly. I personally think we need to educate the people of Africa. They don't know about AIDS and it needs to be avoided. We're just going round in circles and need to get to the root of the problem. Protection isn't expensive and can be given to them free: it would save billions on medication.

Its not just people in Africa who get aids :\ People dont automatically stop something and learn something new just because we suddenly tell them so, thats like telling a murderer not to kill again even though you know he will.

I did not make this thread to debate, I opened it to share some nice words of wisdom, both of us are right but lets not ruin this thread by arguing
Have a good sunday!

We're not arguing, we're debating . And you're a Slash fan, so we're brought together by a special bond anyway .

I know Africa's not the only place in the world with a problem with AIDs, but it probably has the biggest problem with the diesease. Isn't it like every 4 out of 5 people there have AIDS? It's terrible. They need to be educated to help reduce the amout of AIDs cases otheriwse it'll never be controlled. I'm not saying AID's will suddenly dissapear, but people don't even know how it comes about over there and it can't be avoided currently anyway.

[Cypher-]

Thats very true but like I said who are we to have the right to try and change people, they have to decide on their own.

Slash is god

[Thrilled]

I'm sure most Africans would be very happy to be taught something. They don't have to follow the advise, but if they knew the affects of AIDs, I'm pretty sure they'd listen.

And yeah, Slash sure is God .
