Can you ...Hi Well Traveled, thanks for commenting.<br /><br />Can you explain more what you mean? Reading between the lines, you seem to be referring to mostly white, European and Anglo-American culture. Am I right?<br /><br />There's an element of truth to that, but remember, for the most part it's not Europeans pulling the trigger or planting the land mines, it's Africans themselves. And while the West has a lot of blood on our collective hands, ivory poachers aren't selling ivory to Westerners, they're selling it to (mostly) China.Vlad the Impalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06581503726912398643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29098653.post-22434570298606912082014-09-07T21:37:36.233+10:002014-09-07T21:37:36.233+10:00A root cause analysis of this breakdown of elephan...A root cause analysis of this breakdown of elephant culture will point to another culture that has decimated most indigenous people it has exploited.Well Traveledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17703705096994254918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29098653.post-26443686436287675592014-02-10T10:06:13.525+11:002014-02-10T10:06:13.525+11:00A sociological analysis isn't racist in of its...A sociological analysis isn't racist in of itself. In my opinion it'd be more racist NOT to report such findings or observations because it's patronizing to sugarcoat and suppress scientific findings and observation simply for the sake of feelings. You don't think black people are emotionally capable of hearing such findings? Furthermore not all black people are of the same culture. It's racist to assume that black people aren't intelligent enough to understand that he was referring to a particular culture rather than an entire 'race'.

(Any Black American "alpha" males are either dead or in the joint or too damn old to care.) No maternal care to speak of. (As for "inexperienced mothers" - read "baby mamas, drug-addicted moms"). And the Adi Amin connection to this pachyderm holocaust speaks for itself.<BR/><BR/>This post is not racist.
