You are right Eddie.  This death toll is greater than the recent Tsunami in Japan.  People wouldn't quit talking about the tsunami.  The 29,000 figure here is just kids, too.  Not including adults.  I keep thinking that as a people we are better than this.  But we are not.

If they were Caucasians of course people would notice. It's sad when you have boxers showing off by burning hundred dollar bills not to mention the billions wasted on unnecessary wars. Those people are dying at no fault of their own. The whole world should be sending some type of relief. Maybe they would be better off if they had a tsunami like in Japan. But then the Japan is a well off nation. Their catastrophes can effect the rest of the world. So the world reacts.

29,000 Somali kids died of starvation in the past 90 days.
 
I wonder if anyone is paying attention.  If this was 29,000 Belgians, say, or 29,000 Welsh, would people notice?

Is it just me, or is trashy racist crap appearing with more frequency lately?  Is this the intelligent discussion that leads to election of good leaders?  (Not safe for work)

Dallas, thanks form me as well.  This story pisses me off.  That it occurred on a mainstream Chicago network TV station is especially interesting.  It would be interesting to get the editors' point of view - what were they thinking?  What were they not thinking?  Pretty sad.

Thanks Dallas. That is really sad. That should be criminal. If I were that kids father I would sue for defamation.

SB, considering all the Neo-Nazi and White Aryan Christian groups that we have running around here, it's obvious that Hitler still lives. :-(

Norwegian shooter had plastic surgery so he would look more Aryan.  It's interesting how the reports keep repeating he is blue eyed and blonde. I wonder if his hair is bleached too?  ""Hitler would have had him on posters. He has the perfect, classic Aryan face,"
 
We live in a strange world.

Erasing Hate.  Huff Post.  Former neonazi skinhead white supremist.   The documentary airs Sunday, June 26th, at 9 P.M.  From the clips, this guy was a very scary man from sad beginnings.  Apparentely he turned around and ultimately reached out to his direct opposite, anti-racist individuals and the Southern Povery Law Center.  I don't know if I will get to watch it - my TV time is very limited.
