But somehow niggers are supposed to be called African Americans?

Africa is huge, buuuuut pretty much every country can be described as "that hot shit hole," so why bother differentiating?

Its a nice place to visit, but I certainly wouldn't want to live there.

No, but like everywhere, I would love to visit one day. I would need like two months because there are so many things I want to do in so many different countries. Some places cant visit cause the people would kill me for being american (the roman city in Khoms, but maybe one day).

I like you, Jump, so I will not be my usual sarcastic self. I am just curious how you know that every country there is a hot shithole, if you have never been there? I have been to a few African countries. While they do not measure "advancement" like the West does, they are filled with amazingly friendly, happy, wonderful people, who do just fine. I have been shown hospitality and generosity from hut-dwelling people in remote villages, that would shame the hell out of any hospitality that Westerners could ever pretend to offer. I say, give Africa a chance, friend.

I was never comfortable using the term African-American. It's too cumbersome. I just call them blacks. I mean let's just call a spade a spade, amirite.

People are generally the same everywhere, so of course they're friendly and happy and wonderful. They're people, and people are generally the same except for some cultural differences -- they still love good food, fucking, music, and laughing. I do not believe you can go anywhere and not find mostly great people (unless you goto the middle east, but even then you'll find fun people, they'll just be assholes). I get remote villages in Africa are extremely hospitable as they depend on tourists for income. What difference does that make? The countries are still really fucking poor. I would not want to live there.

You do not understand. Africans, and Middle Easterners, have a social code of hospitality. They consider it shameful if they do not literally treat you like a king. And Africans are very loving and friendly too. They truly give you their heart, in a way that Americans, frankly, do not. They will literally do ANYTHING for you.
