Prison labour taking private sector jobs

That's all misguided. Never use convicts for labor and give non convicts jobs with good wages so they can be productive. Make it fun and easy for them and life will improve for everyone. Tis truth.

Wait a minute... You had SS-Totenkopfverbände as an avatar???

No wonder you are worried about TOS violations...

Might I suggest this avatar for future use?

What does that flag (or whatever it is) signify?
It's too plain whatever it is.

I was being intentionally obscure.

It is the flag of the Interahamwe (the closest modern equivalent to the Totenkopf).

Well they need something better than that.
It's not upsetting enough.

True.

No one cares about Africa.

^^^^^^I thought that big R was for "Raptor"

So if you were Hindu or Buddhist you couldn't have an avatar that was a picture of a swastika?

WAY too far

^^^^^That most likely explains what happened to the Ashram t.v. channel.I turned it on when channel surfing,and it showed a big pink lotus and out of it popped a BIG golden swirling swastika.Then that channel was suddenly gone a few days later. It didn't bother me,I know the swastika was around long before Nazi Germany.

That's not the flag of the Interahamwe, it's the flag of Rwanda! No, I do not recognise Kagame's flag! The R flag was used for decades before Kagame took over, and as Kagame was Ugandan Chief of Intelligence he isn't a real Rwandan, he is an invader. He was chief of intelligence of an army that took over with child soldiers. Museveni and Kagame each have the blood of millions on their hands. So, the American governments support each of them to the hilt. Objective reality is objective reality, they both are the worst scum. Right now there's the M23 war in the Congo, another one of Kagame's atrocities.

No. This is the flag of Rwanda:



The previous "R" flag *was* the Rwanda flag once, but it was disgraced by the 1994 genocide, in which the Interahamwe was a pivotal player.

That's Kagame's flag and Kagame is responsible for killing millions. That's a bit more disgrace than what happened after Kagame killed President Habyarimana on 6 April 1994. Sure the American government and the leading lights of the West (with the notable exception of French authorities other than Sarkozy) say otherwise, but truth is truth... Kagame is the worst. What is more, he is ultimately responsible for what happened with the Interahamwe, he and his Western backers, as they started the war in which the Interahamwe operated, and they carried out some frenzied atrocities in February 1993 that convinced many Rwandans that this was a war of extermination and that they'd have to reply in kind.

You can rant all you want. That is still the flag of Rwanda.

The R flag is not the flag of Interahamwe... The R flag is not a symbol of evil. The R flag was used when Rwanda was a peaceful country, with internal peace - as neighbouring Burundi was experiencing periodic massacres in the name of Tutsi supremacy - and it also did not go around invading its neighbours, plundering them of coltan and all sorts of other wealth, unlike today. Kagame is not compared frequently to Hitler for nothing and that flag of Kagame is the equivalent of the swastika flag.

.. when Rwanda was a peaceful country... yeah, right.

Last time I checked, the 1994 Rwanda genocide was the single most lethal event since the Holocaust... (although long run policies like The Great Leap Forward eclipsed both).

Got any sources for these... novel... accounts of history?

It was peaceful until 1 October 1990 when the Ugandan military decided to invade Rwanda... that was not Rwanda's fault. The Rwandan army was actually quite unprepared to deal with the battle-hardened Bush War veterans many of whom were US trained that had crossed into its territory. It needed France and Zaire to help them out at first! The Hutu-run Rwanda was very stable and peaceful, and this was a huge contrast to neighbouring Burundi which was Tutsi-run despite having the same Hutu-Tutsi ratio... Burundi was a neverending series of massacres, most notably the 1972 genocide carried out under Michel Micombero against the Hutu population.

Rwanda's problem was that it was too peaceful, it was so peaceful that it was unable to adequately defend itself from forces based in war-torn territories such as Uganda. Its armies were inexperienced and soft when compared with the battle-hardened forces that invaded from Uganda.
