     Six isolated tribe encounters: The results are usually violent

  • I'd try give them a 10c membership.

    I think they did wrong, it's not ok to arrow down an unarmed defenseless man. It's sad that he was so naive but I would never say they did the right thing.

    you have to understand, though, that they most likely have very limited knowledge of the outside world. so to them, this guy is a massive threat to their lives, so they basically had no choice in their minds.

    I understand that they have no knowledge. They could have just ignored him though, why justify them killing him.

    but they have extreme fear of something they don't know. that's how primitive tribes work. you tresspass on their land, they kill you. I know it doesn't make sense to us, otherwise we'd all be murdering our mailmen, but to them, he is there to kill them, so they kill him first.

    Their immune system can not handle many illnesses that this jackass could have brought with him and caused harm to them.  I don't think he deserved death, but on the other hand, just how fucking stupid are some of these Christians.  He may not have deserved death, but he is also an asshole for putting their lives at risk.

    I it was a pack of wolves I would agree with you. I understand what you're saying I'm just saying I think they did wrong.

    They don't have the same moral compass that we do. This was survival for them. They are not at fault here. The message has been sent numerous times and loud and clear: they're not welcoming. It's not because they are 'reserved' or 'racist'... it's because they are fearful (and they should be if valuing their way of life is important to them).

    Should they build a wall?
  • From what I’ve read some were kidnapped as an experiment a long time ago. The adults got sick and died. They returned the children. They remember and aren’t going to let that happen again. He knew the danger but went anyway on a mission. If the bible got to them,  it was a success. It’s now up to them what to do with it. The guys parents even understand the danger that he chose to ignore. He’s ok with it. The parents accept it.

    I absolutely agree they should be let alone.

    The real story, to me, is that this dope was writing in his journal (or blog or whatever) that God was protecting him and shielding him on his illegal mission!  
    What a goof lol


    I have to make light of it because the arrogance of people who think God is directly intervening in their life (while babies starve and get raped elsewhere) gives me enough rage to spoil my mood.

    Same as that pastor who waded into the river to petition God to have the crocodile that was feasting on his people leave them alone.

    Yah. That didn't go so good lol.

    And in the Roman imperie Julius Caesar sacrificed Christians, the audience laughed at them as they were attacked by lions.

     "There are 572 islands in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands territory, only three dozen of which are inhabited. The territory has a population of nearly 380,000, according to India's 2011 census.
    The 2011 survey only spotted 15 Sentinelese on their island -- the count was done from a distance due to the danger in approaching the tribe. In the 2001 census, the total population was estimated to be 39.
    India has designated five indigenous tribal groups in the territory as "particularly vulnerable" due to the loss of sustaining resources and customs.
    India's Ministry of Tribal Affairs has said that, with regard to Sentinelese tribes, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands administration "has adopted an 'eyes-on and hands-off' policy to ensure that no poachers enter into the island."
    "
    umm if even the government,  both local and national, stays away what makes anyone think its a good idea to go there?

    wonder what the charges will include for those that helped him.

    They are very primitive, it's a simple out-group seen as a threat to their safety situation.

    I understand, I was only a bit concerned about people seem to cheer for murderers, I can understand why they did it but I wouldn't say they did right like some seem to think. 
    I feel like I'm reapeting myself, it's ok if no one understands me move on.

    I don't know how anyone who understands the history of the world could feel bad for this imbecile. I have no pity, especially for Christian missionaries, considering the death they brought to native peoples throughout the 19th and 20th century. If the native Hawaiians had known what this tribe knew, they would have slaughtered Captain Cook's whole crew as soon as they set foot on the island. Disease ravaged their population and the mighty westerners thought they were civilizing savage non-Aryans.
    It's a hopeless situation...
