Southern Gentleman

OK so i usually don't blog this early....its usually late at night before i hit the sack but i had to get this one out while its still fresh in my mind

so anyway....early this morning i was watching this DOC. on HBO called "The Greatest Silence: The Rape In The Congo" it was about how 10's of thousands of woman and children were raped and killed back from '94 damn near to the present day, even tho it aired back in 2004. but man that shit was so sad. they interviewed woman who were raped by 5,10,15 soldiers at one time. had guns and tree branches ran up inside them and did all types of damage and how the aids rate just sky rocketed b/c of it. and it wasn't even woman who were subjected to it. they interviewed one child who was 4 yrs old......4 fucking years old and was raped by a solider yo. some fucking sick twisted shit. they had sex slave camps full of woman and children.....even said when a woman got pregnant they would have children jump on her stomach to force her to abort.....sorry to go into such graphics but mannnnnn that's just sad man.

then they interviewed actual soldiers who go around raping woman and asked em why they did it. one group of em talked about some magic potion shit that makes em do it and they doing it to help beat the enemy....whatever that is. but that's some fucked up shit yo. damn near brought a tear to my eyes a few times while watching it. i don't know why no one wont step in and try to help or do something but like one lady said "most of them don't want to help b/c they feel its not their problem" and i guess until those woman and children that were affected by it speak up. shit like that is just gonna be left in the dark.......

here's a link for some more info on it:
