I dont think we can justly say that any leader or politician picked up a panga to kill someone or burn a house,but it was the comon mwanainchi blaring out his hatred to his fellow country man..! Why did we have to do it. Let us first point the finger at ourselves each one as an individual and blame ourselves before we start blaminging others. Let us stop the culture of complaining and blaming and get up off our "asses" and do something to help and I would suggest that we start by being a bit more patriotic to our MOTHERLAND KENYA...! WARIO Dear Fellow Kenyans,

God forbid that this ever happen again, anywhere in the world, gonna take time off stuff and make sure I take some of my more radical friends to this exhibit and hope that this small gesture will go a long way in ensuring that history does not repeat itself..
