Also read the link to the BBC article about the young man who went to the Amazonian rain forest to find his long-lost mother that someone else in the comments linked to.

Doesn't the story say they are stealing tools from people and even killing them to get the tools? Seems like the government should give them the opportunity to purchase the tools and move into modernity if that's what they want. Also, teach them that it is wrong to kill people just to get what you want. The government's solution seems to be to give them food to keep them happy- as you would a simple beast.Sydneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17038514318463662024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-87331337478881666772016-08-14T06:39:08.101-05:002016-08-14T06:39:08.101-05:00Establishing order and status.

The Mashco seem to follow the maxim: choose life, not abortion; which is an exotic concept to the visiting aliens from the "first-world". The Liberals will indoctrinate them with their Church's fantasy of spontaneous conception and other sincerely-held Pro-Choice beliefs. The corruption will be progressive and the Mashco will be assimilated into their quasi-civilized society.n.nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04252447117532342957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-49164940832932015422016-08-14T05:29:43.071-05:002016-08-14T05:29:43.071-05:00"As if to ascertain their sex"?

I think the Victorians would be astounded that, at this late date, there are still tribes of folks running around bare-assed in the world. Regardless, these people will be assimilated soon. And it's not just the loggers and miners. Even the best intentioned government cannot simply just leave people alone.
