Millennial Couple Bikes Near ISIS Territory to Prove ‘Humans Are Kind’. Oops!

[gordi]

A tragedy indeed.....

....Sorry if I sound like a hard azz.
Do not mean to offend anyone.
I'm just a realist who has seen a lot.
Sunsets and meanness both.

Hi Sen,
I have to say, I pretty much agree with everything you say here.
With just one possible caveat/amendment...
There are HUNDREDS of other countries and areas of the world that are beautiful, different, interesting, exciting, adventurous but most of all.... SAFE.

Naively cycling through areas which are known to be dangerous, just to prove how safe and nice people are was simply stupid.
I was wondering, what did the families and friends of these people say to them when they announced that they were going on a journey to prove how nice and "kind" everyone was....?
Did no one think to give them a slap up-side the head?

Hard Azz #2!
