We're all messed up

I had read an article about this massacre in Congo with hundreds killed and kidnapped by the Lord’s Resistance Army, a group of rebels who follow a self-proclaimed prophet who wants the country to follow the Ten Commandments.

At first it may appear that they’re nuts, uncivilized, and uneducated.

But before I read this article, I read articles about Americans vandalizing property of, and threatening lives of Democratic leaders who voted for the recent health care reform bill.

Is there really a difference?
