American killed by bow and arrow trying to visit forbidden North Sentinel Island...

[Crepitus]

Just because they are a tribe, doesnt make them immune to punishment for murder. Someone from that tribe needs to be put it prison.

Oh STFU. Seriously.

You finally said something I agree with!

 

[Toro]

Oh STFU. Seriously.

Why is it bad for me to kill some with a bow and arrow, but not for someone from this tribe? Youre taking a really weird position that i dont think youre going to be able to properly defend.

If somebody comes into your house without your permission you're allowed to shoot them.

No im not. If im not being threatened by someone in my yard, i cant shoot him.

They are being threatened by disease any time an outsider visits. That's one of the reasons it's illegal to go there.

He made a bad choice and paid for it.

Kind of like going to Gainesville lol

American killed by bow and arrow-wielding tribe while trying to visit remote Indian island

An American tourist trying to visit a lush, remote island in India has been killed by a tribe completely cut off from the outside world and known to attack outsiders with bows and arrows, police revealed Wednesday.

Indian officials have identified the victim as John Allen Chau, 27. They added that he was illegally ferried by fishermen to North Sentinel Island last week, part of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, a group of islands in the Bay of Bengal between India and Burma.

“Adventure awaits. So do leeches,” read the final post on his Instagram account, dated Nov. 2. On his Facebook profile, Chau described himself as a “soccer coach, traveller, and writer.” He often posted images of his worldwide exploits online, such as hikes in Washington state and prior trips to India.

Dependera Pathak, director-general of police on India's Andaman and Nicobar Islands, told the Associated Press that Chau arrived in the region on Oct. 16 and stayed in a hotel while he prepared to visit the prohibited island.

He said Chau organized his visit to the island through a friend who hired seven fishermen for $325 to take him there on a boat, which also towed his kayak.

Chau went ashore in his kayak on Nov. 15 and sent the boat with the fishermen out to sea to avoid detection, Pathak said. He interacted with some of the tribespeople, giving them gifts he had prepared such as a football and fish. But the tribespeople became angry and shot an arrow at him which apparently hit a book he was carrying, Pathak said.

The American's kayak became damaged, so he swam to the fishermen's boat, which was waiting at a prearranged location. There he spent the night and wrote out his experiences on pages of paper which he gave to the fishermen, Pathak said.

In one of the notes handed over, according to the New York Times, Chau wrote about Jesus bestowing him with the strength to visit some of the most forbidden places on Earth.

Chau then set off for the island again the following day. Sources who spoke to AFP though said once he set foot on shore, he was “attacked by arrows but he continued walking.

“The fishermen saw the tribals tying a rope around his neck and dragging his body,” one source added.

Following Chau's death, the fishermen left for Port Blair, the capital of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, where they informed Chau's friend, who notified his family, Pathak said.

He said the family got in touch with Indian police and U.S. consular officials.

"It was a case of misdirected adventure," he added.

The body, according to Reuters, has not yet been recovered as of Wednesday, and those who took him to the island are said to have been arrested.

"The investigation in this matter is on," senior police officer Deepak Yadav said, announcing that the seven fishermen have been taken into custody.

Did this dummy spend even five minutes Googling "North Sentinel Island" before going on his "adventure"? Turns out they don't like visitors.

Just because they are a tribe, doesnt make them immune to punishment for murder. Someone from that tribe needs to be put it prison.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Arrest the savage

Or kill him. One or the other, otherwise there is no justice.

You agree that merely belonging to a tribe gives you the right to kill someone who isnt threatening you? Explain your horseshit position.

If some Indian dude tried entering Area 51 despite warnings that they could be shot, and he did get shot, would that be a justified killing to you?

What kind of dumbass would go back the next day? I'm thinking he's probably Asian with a name like Chau.

Liberal

Nope, a god-bothering missionary.

Oh STFU. Seriously.

You finally said something I agree with!

You agree that merely belonging to a tribe gives you the right to kill someone who isnt threatening you? Explain your horseshit position.

As I've already explained, any outsider visiting the island is considered a threat because of disease. There is history of it already happening with this very tribe.

They don't recognize any laws except their own, and India recognizes and sanctions that.

People rarely pass the posted signs, and if they are they are arrested. I guess this tribe forgot to bring their Jeeps and handcuffs along.

If you try to walk onto a military base without a pass and the guard shoots you, it's your own damn fault.

Same situation.

I just saw a documentary about scuttled ship that somehow became un-moored and ended up at that island. The island people were stripping it to make metal weapons etc. No one wants to try to stop them because they attack anyone trying to come to their shores.

I've been fascinated by this island for years. I'm always fascinated by these "forbidden" areas in the world. They have a long history of attacking visitors. I think the incident you are talking about was when some fishermen fell asleep, and their boat drifted within attack range.

They arent going to shoot a guy who is being non threatening with his hands out, which one would presume is the posture this poor guy took before he was murdered by that tribesman.

Are you trying to suggest that this guy kept walking towards a tribesman who was aiming a bow at him? That seems unrealistic.

His first visit was a warning shot. His second visit he walked towards them as arrows were flying at him. He died because he was a fucking retard, and neither the US or Indian government cares about this special needs student.

They weren't aiming a bow at him. They were firing. We already know he was attacked the first time he was there, and he went back the next day. He was a retard, and he died.
