In 1994, Kevin Carter won the Pulitzer prize for the disturbing photograph of a Sudanese child being stalked by a vulture. That same year, Kevin Carter committed suicide.
Carter is the tragic example of the toll photographing such suffering can take on a person. Along with his famous photograph, Carter had captured such things as a public necklacing execution in 1980s South Africa, along with the violence of the time, including shootouts and other executions. Carter spoke of his thoughts when he took these photographs: “I had to think visually. I am zooming in on a tight shot of the dead guy and a splash of red. Going into his khaki uniform in a pool of blood in the sand. The dead man’s face is slightly gray. You are making a visual here. But inside something is screaming: ‘My God!’. But it is time to work. Deal with the rest later. If you can’t do it, get out of the game”.
The suicide: On 27 July 1994 Carter drove his way to Parkmore near the Field and Study Center, an area where he used to play as a child, and committed suicide by taping one end of a hose to his pickup truck’s exhaust pipe and running the other end to the driver’s side window. He died of carbon monoxide poisoning at the age of 33. Carter’s suicide note read:
“I’m really, really sorry. The pain of life overrides the joy to the point that joy does not exist… I am depressed… without phone… money for rent … money for child support… money for debts… money!!!… I am haunted by the vivid memories of killings and corpses and anger and pain… of starving or wounded children, of trigger-happy madmen, often police, of killer executioners… I have gone to join Ken [recently deceased colleague Ken Oosterbroek] if I am that lucky”.

People who feel sadness over dead niggers are weak cucks and deserve to die.

I'm pissed that there was a UN food center feeding those niggers.
Should let nature take it's course. If they starve, they starve. If you can't provide for yourself, you don't get to live.

That's why liberalism is a mental disorder. He became depressed and committed suicide not because his own life was miserable but because some kid that he never met nor is related to him starved to death through no fault of his own. This is pathological empathy. He projected his feelings and sentiments onto the African people and created a imaginary bond with them and their struggle, even though he has no physical connection to these people whatsoever. This is why liberals act so irrationally, because they are LITERALLY out of their minds.

kevin carter also had a long history of drug and alcohol abuse. he was part of a group of south african photo "jounalists" that called themselves the "bang-bang club". their mission? to promote the idea that aparthied RSA was the root of all evil.
ultimately, carter couldn't reconcile the idea that what he saw in "evil" RSA he also saw elsewhere in africa where RSA held no power.
make of that what you will
