100 Places to Live Abroad Before You Die

Americans Stealing Children in Haiti

Yes, 10 Baptist do gooders did bad, the dumb get dumber. I know I am self-righteous, and arrogantly confident in my opinion. However, I know I am not God, some people are clueless, and somehow they want to be God on Planet Earth, no waiting for Heaven.

Rich are Smarter
I am amazed, astounded, but not surprised; somehow, the people of rich countries believe they make better decisions than poorer countries. Generally, I would agree that rich people make better decisions than poor people do do. I think this is the reason why they are rich. However, being rich does not imbue you with the right to break obvious type laws.

These were not rich people, just average Joe Blow intoxicated with the power of feeling superior.

Crossing Borders is Illegal
I was ashamed with President Clinton helped them to girls get out of North Korea. I am ashamed when the USA does not deport illegal Mexicans.

I believe the rich have a moral obligation to try to tell the poor what to do, it just makes sense. However, the poor have equal rights; it takes a real sense of superiority, about the same as Hitler to make a decision to control the life of children.

My Opinion, Not Me Enforcing Judgment
My opinion is, throw them in jail for five years. I believe the Haitian people have the right to sentence them to death. If someone came into America and took bewildered children into Mexico, and one of them was my friend’s child, I guess I would say hunting season is open.

Everyone believes they have opinion worth being heard, this is the problem.

Hey Andy

"Some of the groups that had rushed into the void were competent veterans. Others were what organizers from larger groups described as “humanitarian tourists”: nongovernmental organizations full of good intentions, but with limited supplies and experience.

“They added to the confusion,” Mr. Canale of Unicef said, “not to the solutions.”

"Humanitarian Tourists" Thank you, I needed this terms to explain the abstract thoughts in my head, these tourist get an addictive rush, the feel strong by seeing people weak.

Schadenfreude is pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others. This German word is used as a loanword in English and some other languages, and has been calqued in Danish as skadefryd.

You would think Haiti is the Land of Orphans but as you stated rightly that most of the Orphans have a Parent they just can not or will not support them. Finally the news station have learn what you said is true as some "Orphans" that were leaveing Haiti screamed to the border gaurds they HAD parents. Fortunaly the well meaning church group from Idaho was stopped and at least 10 of the 33 Orphans had parents and others may have also.

You should call your self Anderson Cooper or Geraldo Hobo. Good reporting sir.

I see as u see....I've been to central America several times and have seen in the airports all of these religious groups wearing their t-shirts going on there pilgrimage's to save the world..been going on for years with what results? I no they just do not understand that they are more trouble then good.Its not about saving children its about religion...most of your Central and South American county's are catholic and there hidden agenda is promoting the born again religion.That's what its about,but they have been brain washed into believing its about saving the children.When all the while its a conspiracy to change a country's religion...it used to upset me at times,seeing all these strangers trekking off to a third world country where they are mostly not wanted anyway.Oh hail the great rich Americans who have no clue.Think about Hatti and all the money....Think about all the American children going to bed tonite hungry. We do not have to trek off to some foreign country to save the children let alone kidnap them...all you have to do is walk to the other side of town...

Stop child traffic, stop poverty, stop enslavement, stop porn and prostitution. When will more people be brave enough to say the words "population control". The aid and assistance that should be given to a people who will give away their own children to fundamentalists must be a single tablet that produces chemical castration. One pill, no more children, in one gerneration, and not only for Haiti. Reproduction is not a right. It might not even be humane. The Church and Islam got it wrong. Wake up.
