Honestly I wasn't sure if this was satire. It started off with a tone that reminded me of the Onion. Sometimes you have to live reality on reality's terms. I feel bad for them and the people that loved them. If my child announced such a plan I would do everything to talk them out of it. I'd even sabotage. I'll keep this couple in my thoughts for a while. But I'm terribly curios if either of the two had any change of heart.
This reminds me in some ways of the two Millenials that quit their jobs, sold everything they had to purchase a boat. Their plan was to live on the open seas with their dog...and the fact that they didn't know a damned thing about sailing, oceans, or boats didn't stop them. Of course, the Boat Children didn't die.
Some liberals, for their part, view Austin and Geoghegan as simply unfortunate. Experts on the region told The Washington Post: "Central Asia generally is fairly safe."
This is yet another example of the lefts "feels over reals"... What they feel is more important than reality.
Well, they wont do that again...
This falls under the "What the hell did you think was going to happen?" category.

If you want to experience danger you can just visit the east side of Pueblo. Or just ride your bike through East Saint Louis.
