Facebook and college athletes just shouldn’t mix. Remember Buck Burnette? Yeah, he used to play for the University of Texas... then he went and posted a racist Facebook status.
 

Now, University of Florida lineman Jim Tartt is rolling in internet mockery because of his own Facebook profile. The Sporting Blog informs us that Tartt joined a group called “Africa Gives Nothing To Anyone -- Except AIDS.”
 

The group’s long-winded description includes this little nugget:

How much morality is there in saving an Ethiopian child from starvation today, for it to survive to a life of brutal circumcision, poverty, hunger, violence and sexual abuse, resulting in another half-dozen such wide-eyed children, with comparably jolly little lives ahead of them? Of course, it might make you feel better, which is a prime reason for so much charity. But that is not good enough. For self-serving generosity has been one of the curses of Africa. It has sustained political systems which would otherwise have collapsed.

It prolonged the Eritrean-Ethiopian war by nearly a decade. It is inspiring Bill Gates' programme to rid the continent of malaria, when, in the almost complete absence of personal self-discipline, that disease is one of the most efficacious forms of population-control now operating.

If his programme is successful, tens of millions of children who would otherwise have died in infancy will survive to adulthood, he boasts. Oh good: then what?I know. Let them all come here. Yes, that's an idea.

If that wasn’t bad enough, it turns out Tartt is an anthropology major -- Yikes.
 

P.S. Going by Jimbo? Nice.
