If there were ever a time for my favorite proverb I learned on TD, this is it. Say it with me folks:


"play stupid games, win stupid prizes"

You are aware that said risk is not the same everywhere, right?

Sure. That's why I listed several countries on a list that attempts to make risk comparisons apples-to-apples.

This is the first murder of western travelers in Tajik that I'm aware of, despite the fact that there are thousands of travelers passing through per year. It's obviously not an absolute shock that it happened, but it is still surprising. Those acting as if it were a slam dunk are just ignorant.

I don't speak ill of the dead, so I'm merely going to quote this instead:
quote:

Austin, a vegan who worked for the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, and Geoghegan, a vegetarian who worked in the Georgetown University admissions office, decided that they're were wasting their lives working.


eta: some good came out of this--the ad at the bottom reminded me to sign up for the Malcolm Gladwell Master Class.

I’m cool with all kinds of people...black people, Mexicans, Asians, Indians, Pakistanis...It makes no difference to me. I give everyone a chance until they prove they don’t deserve it. Muslims do not get that benefit. I don’t trust them and I never will.

“I’ve known him my entire life and never suspected him of doing anything like this.” Things people that trusted Muslims say after those muslims blow up 100 people.

The article was corrected to say:

quote:

CORRECTION: A previous version of this article said Tajikistan has a "known terrorist presence" and that the couple biked through "ISIS territory." It is more accurate to say that Tajikistan faces a threat of terrorism and is near to northern Afghanistan, which has a large terrorist presence.

I bet these Muslims just scratch their heads and laugh when the realize how stupid these types of people are. I mean really, if they view the majority of the West as having this view of reality, I can’t fault them for thinking we are idiots.

Very tragic. But almost predictable. How terminally naive can some people be?
