If the Romans had taken this track, most of us would be running around in the forest wearing little but a coat of blue paint
Naked women being bribed to dance for the tourists? Sounds like Las Vegas.
These “Rights campaigners” have been in the jungle to long...
What’s wrong with that?
These do-gooders should visit Party Cove here at Lake of the Ozarks in July...
Viva Las Vegas!
These do-gooders should visit Party Cove here at Lake of the Ozarks in July...

Not sure how they got ‘human zoo’ out of this..
The outrage is that these so called rights campaigners are only upset about the outside influence. They will deem honor killing and forced child marriage as a cultural thing.
After seeing your news clip...Jeez!... These do-gooders need a timeout!
Where’s the outrage at that bad dancing?....At least the native kids have a beat.
Dancing Neekid in the jungle for food....We get it do-gooders!....It’s not a problem. Have they ever seen a National Geographic before?...Good Grief!
If there’s a law against it, then they are in trouble.
For viewing after work...
Asphalt roads? Is this the asphalt jungle I’ve heard about?
It is amazing how arrogant some people can be. A bunch of ‘do-gooders’ have decided FOR these people that they must not have any progress or advancement in their civilization...
...and THEY call US ‘imperialistic’.
