I thought the SOTP one was confirmed as fake...the only ones that look real are the truck the gas station and the restaraunt, but I didn't think the last one wasn't from Africa...

It would be kinda racist if they weren't from Africa

It's not racist at all.

I bet whoever made that site just thought the pictures were "cute". Hence "6 reasons to love Africa"

But this is probably making them look good because in reality there are far greater acts of stupidity going on in Africa.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

in my mind though it's like writing up something that says "10 reasons to love the Jews", and then list a bunch of untrue reasons to hate the jews.

...

It's funny, yet it's racist. Especially becasue I know the same kind of thing as "USA" thing and it is - Anti-American
Even some of the photos were the same IIRC. It just shall portray Africa as retarded and idiot land. Racist, that's what it is, or at least "Anti-African".

Do any of you remember a train wreck in India a few years ago?
People ride on the sides, and covering the top, because the train is so full.
That's what the truck picture reminds me of.

The misspelled Stop, isn't from Africa.
