That second story is so horrible and yet it doesn’t surprise me at all. There seems to be a different value put on life and the welfare of others in Africa. I remember the last time I was in South Africa for a holiday and the first story I heard on the news was about a 13 year old who was gang raped, stabbed and dumped in a field to die. Some welcome home! But then that’s what you expect, and become frighteningly accustomed to, in the rape capital of the world. Makes me glad I don’t live there any more.
