Its Too Dangerous For Americans To Go Over Seas Right Now?!?!?!?! - GoFuckYourself.com

KingAsher · 03-29-2005, 04:23 PM

This is what my entire family is telling me, since I told them I bought my plane ticket for Rome, for which I leave in June for. They are telling me they have read in the newspapers and on the internet, that Americans are being kidnapped and held for ransom, killed, etc. (which Im sure is true, but all over Europe?) I personally havent read anything of the kind, and was wondering if this is in fact a TRUE danger.......

Roald · 03-29-2005, 04:24 PM

yeah its true, I have 3 americans in my basement right now. Waiting for my money!

Tipsy · 03-29-2005, 04:25 PM

Too much fox news is bad m'kay?

David! · 03-29-2005, 04:26 PM

I wouldn't go to Iraq, but just about anywhere else is safe as long as you don't wear an American flag on you or a GWB sticker on your suitcase

Manowar · 03-29-2005, 04:26 PM

Thats BS. Nothing like that is happening in europe, no one cares if your american or not.

nnweb · 03-29-2005, 04:26 PM

yeah my family said the same thing too when I went to Jamaica 2 weeks ago. I got stopped and shook down by crooked cops and still had a blast.

you'll be fine. just don't be stupid.

dready · 03-29-2005, 04:28 PM

Carry an American flag on your back and you'll have NP.

The Other Steve · 03-29-2005, 04:29 PM

Even the Croc Hunter is feeding Americans to his crocs these days.

You'll be fine when you travel - just tell everyone you're Canadian

$5 submissions · 03-29-2005, 04:32 PM

Totally depends on where you go. Europe is safe. I haven't heard of state dept advisories recently re western europe.

evanmorgan · 03-29-2005, 04:32 PM

it all depends on where you go

Asher - Nobody gives a shit man and they ain't out to get ya!

Some parts of the world may be unstable - not just for US folks, but anyone. That has never changed in decades.

Go and enjoy yourself and have a good trip!!

PS... And if anyone rolls their eyes in the street - just know that it's not because of you - blame Bush!

dready · 03-29-2005, 04:51 PM

Pretty sad if you have to lie about where you come from to avoid conflict. LOL

andrej_NDC · 03-29-2005, 05:09 PM

we are not aggresive, but pretty friendly over here, the ppl who hate Bush, hate only him

kmanrox · 03-29-2005, 06:17 PM

haha I've been around the world 3 times in the past 2 years, your family needs to broaden their horizons.

K-Man... Proud American

italianstyle · 03-29-2005, 06:20 PM

in my opinion it is , not for the locals but for the higher presence of HOSTILE muslim here...I see they are hostile even against us so...by the way...I will not tell you how is possible that you voted again for BUSH there because we voted BERLUSCONI...but I would like to...

Head · 03-29-2005, 06:26 PM

Tell them to fuck off: Your goin! Millions of Americans are over now.

Pornwolf · 03-29-2005, 06:52 PM

A rich gringo will get robbed in South America faster today than 10 years ago.

Even then if we're talking about Western Europe the most that's likely to happen is people laughing at the idiot with the Bush sticker.

mortenb · 03-30-2005, 10:00 AM

You would be in as much danger in europe as I would be in America.. Safe if you don't go out of your way to find dangerous people..

warlock5 · 03-30-2005, 10:31 AM

Your local hood is probably more dangerous than 80% of the countries you could go to. Just stay away from Columbia, Afghanistan, and Iraq and you'll be perfectly fine.

Im not saying Im scared to go, Im going either way whether its true or not, I was just wondering if there was any truth behind what Ive been told, since I havent heard of anything like it.........

kowntafit · 03-30-2005, 11:03 PM

if it's your time to die, it's your time to die. life is short... enjoy it!

reynold · 03-30-2005, 11:14 PM

That's right. Life is dangerous for everybody. Not only Americans.

It's unfortunate that your family can see only so far.
