That doesn't usually stop them, man.

However, Im sure Nvidia have sold more graphics cards than Sony, its just Sony is a more well known name.

I think you seriously need to read all of my posts again before you jump in the middle and misquote me.

Well maybe you should understand socio-economic repercussions of what happened there and elsewhere and then you'd realize your 'analogy' is essentially comparing apples and atombombs. I'd be happy to go over it with you if you'd like but it's gonna be a detailed thesis of about 2 or 3 pages.

I think it's funny how some people blame other people for world event. THIS is not one of the legit ones.

I'm pretty sure Sony didn't tell Rwandan militia to start taking mines by force, if they did, then shame on Sony, however I'll just see this as ruthless capitalism.

Africa's problems are because of Africans, not because some mastermind of corporations is telling them too. It seems that African countries can't seem to ascend past level 1 in world economics. hhmmm let's see, instead of creating a real government and nationalizing the Mines and then redistributing it through our populace and Infrastructure...we'll just run around like savages shooting anybody who tells us we can't and keep our people opressed, opress or be opressed.

In short, this is nobodies fault but the Rwandan Terrorists.

I've heard of African Americans who need to stop blaming other people....but Africans? I know you're AA but do you even know the slightest bit of african history? You do know that a more institutionalized segregation JUST ended around 15 yrs ago there, right?!

And yes, Apartheid's shining examples were in south africa but don't think for a second that it wasn't happening elsewhere and wasn't fueling the sort of ethnic clensing like in Rwanda or the gorilla warfare in the Congo. **** like this doesn't just stay in nice, neat little boxes, it spills over into other countries.

Many people needs to stop blaming other people for their problem. African Americans need to stop blaming the whites because we now have a chance to become the majority but we're just ignoring it.
This is similar to to the diamond company doing anything they can to get the material but Africans have their own mind. If they know right from wrong then they have the power to choose. So I still believe that Africans and many other race just blame people because they have no one else to blame. Its like if someone offer me a million to kill someone. I have the power to choose if I want to kill the person and be rich or stay how I am and keep my morality.

Ok, i've got a deal for you. There's a guy that needs to be, let's say, out of my hair. I'll give you six peanuts, a dollar bill that I found outside target, and 1 GB ddr1 400. lol

Either way, I blame myself for Africa's problems. Even if my ancestors didn't get there until a thousand years after the africans did, we still caused all the problems. They're perfectly fine with their child soldiers, just puts some hair on their chest. *sarchasm*

Are you kidding me? Countless other devices have to use that and they are blaming the PS2 specifically like it is the only one?

Using child soldiers and killing innocents was learned from white Europeans. This was not at all the African Warrior mentality and way of fighting.
