Both nations were colonies who threw off their oppressors. America dedicated their country to Jesus Christ, Haiti chose Satan.

Gee, why ever did they turn out so differently?

Hey, leftist writer, how about mentioning that part of Haiti’s problems was their leaders committing mass genocide against almost all white people in their country after their successful revolution? That made them pariahs in the world, and it killed off much of their business class and the ones building any kind of infrastructure at all in their country.

It was stupid and immoral, but the Marxists still want everyone to see the Haitian revolution as glorious. They say it was justified because they were just killing people who held them in slavery, but would most Americans see murdering all white Southerners after the Civil War as a great, admirable idea too?

Genocide is not “beautiful” Mr. Leftist, and it is one of the reasons why Haiti is arguable the worst country in the hemisphere. And after over 200 years of independence, isn’t it time for Haitians to take a tiny bit of responsibility for the state of their own country without all the excuses, excuses, excuses?

“was surely the greatest tragedy in the history of the human species.”

What a pantload of nonsense this is.

What, there were no diseases in the Americas prior to Columbus? Two entire continents with no epidemics? Sure, just like the Indians didn’t practice slavery and the wiping out of enemies.

For others, Haiti is a tragedy. There are some, whose names do not deserve mention, who even refer to it as a “shithole country.”

There are others, like Clintons and their cronies, who view it as a golden land of opportunity.

Wait, is that a picture of black people lynching white people?

I thought that was unpossible!

Every BLM activist says that white people did that exclusively to black people.

ONLY in America.

All the time.

For no reason.

Where’s that Hollyweird boob who had himself filmed floating around at a luxury hotel in Haiti to prove that it really isn’t a shithole country? Perhaps he should go there now.

As unrest envelops Haiti once again, it is important for us to remember that Haiti suffers from a worldwide collusion between America and European countries intent on making the tropical paradise suffer.

And yet the Dominican Republic shares half the same Island, but is much less of a sh*thole.

So US and Europe are punishing half an Island? Some idiot wrote this article.

These were known as the first liberals.

Let’s not mention the infamous meeting in the early 1800s where Haiti’s leaders pledged allegiance to Satan/Voodoo for throwing out the French.

I've read that about 28% of them died as a result of the Civil War. Apparently after the destruction of the Civil War, nearly 2 million people in the South died from starvation, exposure and disease, as a consequence of the invasion and conquest by the forces of the Northern states.

Probably didn't get into the northern papers much because they were still trying to justify the mass murder they committed in preventing Independence for the Southern states.

Well, by most measures, currently Haiti IS a shithole country > but of course it needn't be.
Brings to mind Shitcago, et al, unsurprisingly.

I can name that tune in two notes, Tom !

All of the BLM crowd and the NFL Kneelers should be sent to Haiti.
That’s what they want for us to become. Why not just go there, where it’s already their cup of tea.
