YEAH COPS WILL HARRASS YOU FOR A CLOVE CIGARETTE or an oopen can of beer in a park, whilst always being in the wrong place , I agree, harrassing the civilians while failing to catch the criminals.

Yeah it's awful stuff. I just watched a HBO doc on the 2013 West Gate Mall massacre by the Boko Haram. Nasty, nasty savages they are. It's heart breaking to know that this goes on anywhere in the world.

I'm sorry we're at the Michael Brown memorial right now but if you'd like to leave a message leave your name and number at the beep and please remember 'Black Lives Matter' - President Obama

They seemed whiter then and less angry

There are absolutely horrific events happening all the time in Africa that never get a mention in western media. So the fact that this got coverage at all is a positive. If it hadn't been a Muslim group and it had just been some tribal incident, like the ongoing stuff in the Congo, it may have possibly made one article in broadsheet newspapers and a mention on the BBC world service. But conflict involving Muslims is newsworthy, even to an extent African Muslims.

Obviously if it happened in the west it'd get coverage. Let's say even one or two schoolgirls were kidnapped in the west, it'd get wall to wall coverage at least until the ratings statred to drop and a new stroy came along.

But it happened in Africa and historically we ignore almost everything that happens there, same with the Middle East.
