#14 I have not see any lately, but Nigerian email-scammers used to be so common, they became a cliche. Who ever thought they'd see ol' Showerhead Zuma in the pokey? |

#12 Even here is the outer suburbs of Cincinnati, in southwest Ohio, my usual post office annex in the back of the Hallmark card shop next to the Chinese restaurant in the strip mall has the nearest police station on speed dial — because Nigerians come in so frequently to pass forged currency. I challenged the clerk to see if she really meant to be that country-specific, but she was adamant. I would have thought it would be Kenyans from Nairobi, but apparently Nairobans prefer working from home by email. |

#11 Nigerians are the thieves and bandits of the continent Contra our new troll Knuckles, I would agree to a point. I worked the 1994 World Cup venues at the old Foxborough Stadium. We were selling official World Cup soccer balls for the reasonable, affordable price of $200. I remember only three people buying those balls, and all three of them were Nigerians trying to buy them with fake $100 bills. |

#6 A Snippet, Captain's Journal. You will notice this is not a black/white thing, but civilization repelling boarders; plenty of video out there with black dudes holding the line. Heads up. Not a tickling competition. |

#5 Herb was at least busy explaining how Trump was going to assassinate a Latin American Country's leader and then send in occupying troops. Kuckles is just an ignorant tard. *these riots are actually a bit hairy, with real ammo being used and looters being firebombed and whipped. Dude being detained by a tire over the torso is...telling. I'll try to get links. Whatever it was, it is now a giant loot fest. Of course. |

#1 In the violence that followed the protest, businesses, including those belonging to Nigerians, got burnt. This would indicate South Africa is on the road to recovery. Nigerians are the thieves and bandits of the continent. |
