Given that there are over seven billion humans on earth and less that forty thousand rhinos on earth why do people think that rhino horns are aphrodisiacs?

Cultures, myths, taboos, and customs can be just plain stupid. 
If you want to view paradise . . . simply look around and view it!

Now there's absolutely no arguing with that!

There's a variety of reasons:
-a Chinese myth is that rhino horn can cure ED
-the prize of killing an endangered species and trying to get away with it for bragging rights
yeah no.

I guess some people will associate anything long, hard and primarily meant to thrust with a dong.

Sad to see an entire species being wiped out due to ignorance and stupidity tho...

Just wait until you hear about Surströmming.
That truly sounds vomitosis!
This is gross too. It's Norwegian. Where my Great grandpa Christopher came from-
It uses lye. LYE! Like lye soap!

It's not as disgusting as what you descibed, though. UGH!

We should lay off the disgusting food thing.  I'm pretty sure I could make RCM literally vomit if I tried and I don't want to. I just don't.

Nazis are not considered terrorists in america but people who punch them are about to be labeled terrorists?

reddit.com still remains a mystery to me. Can someone explain why they are so popular?

It's the most carebear place on Earth. You could go there with any form of issue and everybody will hug you, and tell you everything's going to be ok and that you're the best person in the world. Safe place at its finest.
I guess it's popular because people nowadays is waaaaay too sensitive and can't handle reality very well.  :question:
Check my crappy and unpopular reviews and ratings:

Modern day Nazis may be bigoted a***oles but most of them are just expressing their first amendment rights.

The people that punch them are committing a crime by using violence against those that disagree with them for their ideology. It think that comes closer to being considered terrorism.

As far as I'm concerned, the person that resorts to violence first is the terrorist.

When was punching somebody 'terrorism' anyway?  :question:
So if 2 guys are in back of a bar beating the s**t out of each other- one of them is a 'terrorist'?
Or are they just 2 drunks getting into a fist fight?

Bar fights are usually caused by drunk people being stupid. People that punch Nazis do so because they want to completely squash an ideology they disagree with. The intent of punching Nazis is to make people too scared to exercise their first amendment rights, which is practically textbook terrorism.
