I bet if the wife was more amenable to submitting herself as the lord intended this could have been avoided.
At any rate they made a unwise choice and were rewarded for their stupidity.

You don’t need to read a 10,000 year old book to understand that evil exists, all you’ve need to do is read the headlines or turn on the news for 5 minutes every morning to realize the world is full of evil.

Just attend a DNC rally and it’s pretty obvious [emoji23]

Bicycles were AWESOME… when I was 12. :rolleyes:
I swear, bicycles make ya’ stupid after 16 - and the more money you spend on a bicycle and related gear (especially apparel), the dumber you get.
Play stupid games; win stupid prizes. In a way it removes some lack of intelligence and good judgment from the gene pool.
Well, the Bible isn’t quite that old, but never the less, I would say there is a pretty big demographic that doesn’t really have a good anthropology and a good handle on what evil actually is. The reason I mentioned history in that what’s on the daily news is IMO just the most recent history, at least when it’s reported truthfully.
Proving once again believing the fantasy world story the left puts out there will get you raped and or murdered.
Not sure what you mean about the wife’s submission…could have talked him out of the trip?
Not too much zealotry on my part this time?
Someone said I got booted off of Assbook (facebook) for posting good riddance to these two f@cktards. I haven’t checked yet. :laugh:
There is no bad people is this world. That couple, since they’re dead, they can speak to the 2 million souls in Cambodia that died between April 17, 1975 and January 1979. Ask them if there are evil people in this world?
Harsh, my man, harsh.
Or the 50+ million killed by that darling of the Left, Mao Zedong.
It’s hard for me to feel sorry for clueless people, it just is, and this dead couple qualifies. Bummer for them and theirs but zero shits allocated.
“Life is hard; it’s even harder when you’re stupid”
It’s a no win situation for them. Suppose they were correct and biked across the Middle East unmolested and 100% in tact and had a wonderful experience meeting wonderful people. NOBODY CARES. It changes zero opinions. The right says fake news and the left says of course. The whole exercise is futile.
Now however it ONLY enforces the opinion of people of our ilk.
In a way, the death of that couple does serve a purpose: It’s the perfect cautionary tale for any other idiots that think the world is a beautiful place full of shiny happy people holding hands.
they just need to go to the hood in chicago etc… save on travel and same ending I reckon
I had a friend who grew up in Southside. He volunteered to enlist and go to Vietnam as he thought it would be safer. Turned out he was right. He survived his 12 months and when he got home he found his best friend in a gutter knifed.
People can believe whatever they want but other people are free to do what they want regardless of your belief. And some of them are evil, or sociopaths/psychopaths and have no concept of caring one whit for another human being. I do respect this couple acting on their belief. Many liberals sit home in their giant carbon ass-print homes and merely lecture others.

Anne Frank once said “I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart”. She died in a concentration camp.
I’m glad there are good people in this world, really I am. I just wish they could get their heads out of the sand and realize there is true evil in this world too.
And even though she died, “good people” fought a war against the evil that killed her and brought an end to those concentration camps. And I think that was the point of the quote and the reason her father printed her diaries.
So while not everyone is essentially good, every time somebody makes the assertion that everyone is a sinner and most of humanity is bad, it’s a slap in the face of every one who ever died trying to save the life of another person. And there have been a lot of “good people” throughout history who died trying to make the world a better place or to protect the innocent.
I wish we lived in a world where Anne Frank was right and people could bicycle everywhere without fear of anything, but I’m not going to lay blame at the feet of the victims even if they are naive, misguided or even completely clueless. Some soulless creature murdered innocents in the name of religion and that is who I blame.
And I’m honestly glad that there are people who haven’t experienced true evil, who haven’t had to see real suffering first hand and can live an existence uncontaminated by these creatures. I only wish they had stayed in their safety bubble, it must be nice to not know how bad things can be.
Pluralist (link cited in the OP) published a slanted, misleading and in some parts factually incorrect story, and they’ve had to amend it twice as a result.
The cyclists weren’t on a mission to prove something political or ideological – pure bullshit unsupported by anything they said or wrote, but spun that way ex post facto as red meat for those whose ignorance or tilt makes them susceptible to the message.
Tajikistan is neither ISIS territory nor high risk travel destination.
They were travelers who happened to draw the short straw.
Shame there’s so much schadenfreude over American citizens killed by terrorists.
