From MSNBC comes this shot, more artistic than journalistic, on what it's like to be a mental patient in Sierra Leone. You're chained to the floor with a badpan, and your family and/or friends are expected to give you a mat to lie on.

This is eerily similar to an Image of the Day from India that looked like a pretty similar setup.

It's sad, isn't it?
