    Do you want the US to invade this island, DMC?

    Yes or no.

    Yes or no.
    DMC needs to point out who here called for an invasion of Saudi Arabia over the Khashoggi murder.

    This is the weakest straw man argument he has ever come up with.

    Missionary said he was entering ‘Satan’s last stronghold’ before being killed attempting to convert Indian tribe



    John Chau wrote that he knew he might be killed by the tribe, which aggressively shuns the outside world and which is

    protected from incursion by Indian law.

    “Chau’s diary reveals a portrait of a young man obsessed with the idea of bringing Christianity to the Sentinelese,” the report reads.

    “It also shows that Chau knew his mission was illegal.

    He wrote of maneuvering to avoid the Indian authorities who patrol the waters near the island.”


    “God Himself was hiding us from the Coast Guard and many patrols,”

    Tomato/tomahto


    So any more "yabut" caveats for this incident to differentiate it from the one liberals are losing your ing minds over?
    You're thick as a brick, the two are hardly comparable.

    A premeditated and highly contrived assassination of a critic of the KSA, by his own government, in its embassy in Turkey, is not very much like a goofy evangelist getting himself killed by invading North Sentinel Island.

    the family of John Allen Chau published a post on his Instagram account announcing his death.

    "Words cannot express the sadness we have experienced about this report," it says. The post describes Chau as "a Christian missionary" who "loved God, life, helping those in need, and had nothing but love for the Sentinelese people. We forgive those reportedly responsible for his death."

    adventure blogger meets his ultimate adversity

    The Observer report said its journalist had recently seen tourists throw bananas and biscuits to tribes-people on the roadside, and had been told by local traders how much to bribe the police to spend a day out with the Jarawa. In June last year, Survival International accused eight Indian travel companies of running "human safari tours" so tourists could see and photograph the Jarawa.

    The London-based group called for tourists to boycott the road used to enter the reserve of the Jarawa tribe, who number just 403 and are in danger of dying out.
    The Andaman and Nicobar tropical island chain is home to four other rare tribes - Onge, the Great Andamanese, the Sentinelese and the Shompens - each numbering fewer than 350 members.

    for the Sentinelese, the arrival of any stranger can be catastrophic.

    I only wish the Native Americans had kept out the Euro trash in the 1400's.
    America would be the place to be now with real Americans.

    Maybe you should write a book about it.

    Think "Clan of the Cave Bear," more specifically aimed at men.

    So this is a non-issue because they aren't humans?

    In the universal sense, no.



    Did Timothy Treadwell deserve to be mauled by grizzly bears?


    No, but he probably knew his grizzly buddies were wild animals; this guy likewise knew his mission was dangerous.

    Very odd qualification you just made.

    No one is arguing that the guy was right or even legal, or that he wasn't aware of the dangers. If someone went onto an indian reservation in the US and was slaughtered, would that be ok?

    you're the only poster suggesting so.

    I wouldn't be too sure this is comparable.

    As between native nations, states and federal law, there are fairly clear rules to follow. They can vary from state to state, but how the onion is supposed to be chopped is more or less well known, given the details of the case.

    In this case, the popo cruised by on a boat to check out the scene, but has no plans to land, to investigate the killing, or even indeed to recover the body of Mr. Chau. The Indian Military has no ongoing relationship with the people who live there. It is doubtful they would acknowledge legal norms of procedure whatsoever. That does not make them sub-human or sub anything in my opinion, you can see pictures of their metal weapons online. Soured by brushes with imperial Britain and Italy, they are intensely mistrustful of outsiders and particularly dislike whoever wears a uniform.

    No charges will be filed. It is doubtful that any attempt will be made to notify the North Sentinelese of the concern of India or indeed that of the USA, for the killing of Mr. Chau.

    It’s ridiculously stupid argument.

    DMC listens to his conservative talkshow crap and traps himself.

    Nope means nope.

    I don't think missionaries deserve to die just for being missionaries.

    People need to be aware of their surroundings and should they choose to disobey the law in a foreign country, there are grown up risks for doing that.

    In this case, seems like the decedent knew what he was doing, knew that it was dangerous, and still wanted to do it; he even forgave his killers in advance for what they were about to do.

    So did Jesus. Therefore the Romans weren't to blame.
