Hutu's Violent Towards The Tutsi

My reaction to the documentary is that the Hutu’s were very violent towards the Tutsi. Hutu made me feel disgusted with the way they were acting like gang members taking innocent people’s lives torturing the Tutsi. I can’t believe they went as far as killing those girls at the school as shown in the documentary. The fact that they were on the radio naming those they were going to kill and saying you can basically kill Tutsis was unbelievable. Going as far as killing children was what stunned me the most if anything, they were the most innocent ones. Seeing the children’s bodie’s decomposing was very graphic to me just lying there as they were decomposing in the sun. “(The history channel)” “From April to July 1994, members of the Hutu ethnic majority in the east-central African nation of Rwanda murdered as many as 800,000 people, mostly of the Tutsi minority”( historychannel.com) I was also angry and ashamed was that America didn’t help these poor people because it was not in their benefit. They only cared for Americans and if they were safe
I think as soon as the first killings started, the Americans had to go there and put a stop to it. The Hutus felt no threat, no one tried to stop them. I think it would have started anyways because there was no way to predict it, but I believe it wouldn’t have escalated to a genocide if the early signs were noticed. It is always easier to fix something when it is a small problem rather than when it escalates to something so significant like a genocide. When the killings first started, they should have arrested those killers and gave them the sentences they deserved. Maybe once others saw that others were getting punished for their actions, they would think about that before killing someone. Also, that man in charge of the military in their country should have been stopped from the beginning or shouldn’t have even had that killing title in the first
