    Nigerian healer killed in 'bullet-proof' charm test

    I'm shocked it didn't work, shocked I tell ya!

    A self-styled traditional healer in Nigeria has died after one of his clients tested his "bullet-proof" charms on him.

    Chinaka Adoezuwe, 26, was killed after instructing the man to shoot him as he was wearing the charms around his neck.

    Police in the country's south-eastern Imo state say the client has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

    Charms are popular in Nigeria, where traditional healers are consulted for cures for various ailments.

    But there have been several reports of people being killed after testing "bullet-proof" charms and medicines.

    "A young man had gone to [the healer] to prepare bullet-proof charms for him, which the native doctor did," a villager told the Punch newspaper.

    "To prove the efficacy of the new charms, [he] positioned and handed over a gun to his customer. Tragedy (a.k.a. the bullet) struck."

    In January, a traditional medicine seller was arrested after a man drank a "bullet-repelling" liquid and was shot dead.

    The seller in north-western Nigeria reportedly assured the man that he could not die if he was shot.

    They're just like us, they just need to be fed, clothed, and taken care of like children when they see the wonders of our technology and civilization they'll work to join our advanced society.

    /sarcasm

    I still can't fathom how anyone in our society can view these primitive morons as anything but what they are. Primitive, lack of intelligence imbeciles.

    Since everything, fruits vegetables are growing all year the concept of saving and planning ahead never evolved their brains. This is so basic a difference between people that evolved to survive a long winter where nothing grows. The out of Africa myth is totally deranged. They just found stone tools in China that are more than 2 million years old...

    I thought we had a thread on the Chinese reaction to Africa. Couldn't find it easily.

    I think the 1st snippet is a clip from the below full vid.

    Empire of Dust is a damned good documentary, just for the hilarious commentary alone from the Chinese guy.
