As reported by Sky News, the armed forces of Liberia have been given orders by the government to shoot people trying to cross illegally from the border of neighboring Sierra Leone, which was closed to stem the spread of the disease. The report said that soldiers stationed in Grand Cape Mount County, which borders Sierra Leone, and in neighboring Bomi County, were to "shoot on sight" anyone trying to cross the border into Liberia, according to a local newspaper, the Daily Observer, which quoted deputy army chief of staff Col. Eric Dennis. http://www.naturalnews.com/046596_Ebola_outbreak_shoot_on_sight_Liberia.html# Replies: Posted By: Guests Date Posted: August 25 2014 at 9:48pm Well that is one way to handle it!
