Also, I've spent a half hour looking into it, and Somalia is by no means better off than it was under Barre.  It's a living nightmare.  It's just that nobody hears about the horror because they have no means of communicating it, and because nobody gives a shit about them in the first place.

Funny story, one of the guys I work with claims to be from Somalia. I was eating lunch at the news table, (the one by the tv that always has CNN) and they're talking about gun control. He thinks gun control is silly. The town he's from only had one murder last year, and it was a stabbing. Everybody there has a dozen machine guns, and maybe some light anti-aircraft weapons, and everybody there leaves each other alone because everybody knows everybody else is armed to the teeth. The piracy problem has more or less gone away now, but European boats are the easiest targets because they are sissies and don't carry guns. American boats carry guns, so nobody messes with them.

I thought that was interesting.

Oh, wow, my neighborhood only had one murder last year, and it was a stabbing too! So clearly Portland and Somalia are pretty much identical.

:lol:

Sounds like the UN still considers Somalia piracy a problem: http://www.un.org/News/Press/docs/2012/sc10824.doc.htm

This article seems to have a different view on the crime rate from the guy you work with: http://somalilandpress.com/crime-rate-soars-in-somaliland-37410
