Two men with high-powered rifles and an axe broke into Kruger National Park in South Africa, looking for a £10,000 payday.

Western values are dollars, euros, and cents.
The next time some white person from Europe or the US preaches to you about their values, laugh in their faces. Loudly. Make sure everyone around you hears what a sick joke they are.
