  1. What is it with men, why do they hate women so much? This disgusting behaviour has been going on since the year dot. Rape isn't about sex, it's about men showing the power they have over women. If it wasn't for men the world would probably be a better and safer place to live. It seems to be men from places life Africa and and the Muslim world that seem to have the most hatred for women. And probably because the authorities in these place are men, that is why it isn't stopped.

  2. What is wrong with Africa? Conflict here n there? Their glory (illustrious n brilluant sons n daughters) are fleeing their home countries to become "SLAVES" in foreign lands bc of insecurity. What exactly is d problem? I empathize with these women whose crime is being born in that part of d world.

  3. I’m so proud to be an American where our government will not let anyone take enough control that they can do our women like this and in other countries where a woman has no rights to her own body. This is sad and disgusting to these women

  4. African soldiers and paramilitary have hearts of stone. Avoid them by all means. They've been trained to be more brutal and brazen than tigers, lions and hyenas. This is coming from someone who has a family member in the military so I know how they behave

  5. It is a short video that carries such a big, heartbreaking story. I feel for the women, being raped twice or thrice the same week is so brutal. What's the possible solution in this case? This is soo bad, what needs to be done to END this💔
