Count Your Blessings .


JonesTown Massacre.

Look it up if you think YOUR having a bad day .
Novemeber , 1978 . Guyana , South Africa .
Jim Jones , a reverend at the time , told the 900 hundred people - including 300 children - of the town at the time that they were no longer worth living for ,
and convinced them to drink cyanide to die a death of dignity and peace .
Jones told the people it would be a quick and painless death , sweet in taste, amongst the screaming children's voices who were injected with cyanide instead of drinking the deathly cocktail laid out for the other civilians in a huge metal basin .
Effects of Cyanide include : Extreme difficulty in breathing , Cardiac Arrest and Seizure .
I watched the CNN documentary on this yesterday with Moustafa . 20th anniversary , surviors described the horror of the genocide , along with picutres and videos footage .
Bone shattering , mind bogling , riveting , disgusting .
Count. Your . Blessings .
