Hiking - An Outdoor Adventure Except When.....

           This open letter has been around the internet, SO IN CASE YOU MISSED IT,  I think It is something  Americans must read and absorb so we need never have truly mindless  people performing the same stunt anywhere in the world. It is all well a good to have some misguided ideology or to opt to be totally ignorant, but please, do it in your own country where there are many other misguided and ignorant people of your ilk who will support your moronic actions. 

     

          AN OPEN LETTER TO THE AMERICAN HIKERS RECENTLY RELEASE FROM IRAN:

Having been bombarded, for more than two years, with countless
stories of the hikers held prisoner in Iran, and having had quite enough
of the political correctness so invasive in our daily lexicon, I have decided
that somebody needs to say SOMETHING which is politically DIRECT about this whole situation. So, here we go…An open letter to the “hikers.”

Dear…’Hikers,’

What the hell is wrong with you people? Do you come by your stupidity genetically, or is it a byproduct of your ideology? Perhaps both.

The Iranians said you were spies but that can’t possibly be true…you’re far too brain dead to be spies. I’m going to go out on a limb here and take a wild shot a tit…You’re all liberals aren’t you?

You went HIKING. Hiking is good. Hiking doesn’t leave a carbon footprint regardless of the amount of fossil fuel you burned to GET to your starting point. You shouldn’t be allowed to walk around the block without supervision. You could have gone for a walk in the park, or hiked on a trail in the mountains – but NOOOOOOOOO. YOU MORONS!! You decided to go hiking along the border between Iran and Iraq????? Honestly, I can't think of a worse place.

What exactly did you THINK was going to happen?

Did you think you were going to meet a bunch of Iraqi or Iranian

hippy freaks and exchange wildflowers and maybe share some weed??

You didn’t go over there for some noble purpose like building a school or to provide medical services or even to help rebuild a road or a bridge. You went ‘hiking’ in a war zone next to a country that hates us.

Seriously…what the hell???

You managed to wander from the Iraqi side of the border over to
the Iranian side. What? No map? No GPS? No common sense…what?

Did the Iranians not know the words to Kum ba yah??

You went to Iranian jail didn’t you? All three of you – but one of
you got to go home early because of her delicate constitution, didn’t you?

Did you enjoy your two years in Iranian jail? Did you??

The Omanis bailed your sorry butts out of stir – but had they
asked ME, I would have told them to save their money and let you rot. As far as I’m concerned, the Iranians could have kept you. But as it is now…WE’RE stuck with you again and, frankly, it’s a waste of our effort to watch over you numb nuts.

Oh happy, happy joy, joy…you’re on your way home.

I wouldn’t be surprised if you thanked Ach-ma-genocide.

When you get here, no doubt you’ll be treated like celebrities and
the media will be knocking at your collective doors. I’m sure you’ll either sell your story to People magazine or, maybe first, you’ll grace the pages of Newsweek with a cover stating…’We’re All Iranian Prisoners Now!’ You’ll tell us you were ‘well treated,’ and you’ll thank everybody who arranged for your release. 

Do you three have ANY idea what REALLY happened? ANY IDEA???

You weren’t ‘arrested’ for being ‘spies’ you were KIDNAPPED for
being AMERICANS. You weren’t ‘released’ after a ‘court’ hearing; you were PUT ON DISPLAY and RANSOMED. Now, because of YOU, dictators and other criminals around the world KNOW they can kidnap Americans and get paid to let them go.

          YOU slackers have made the world MORE dangerous for Americans.  

For future reference, here are some things you need to learn. Don’t lay on railroad track. Bad things will happen if you do. Don’t play in traffic. Bad things will happen if you do. Don’t run with scissors. Bad things will happen if you do. Don’t try to pretend you and grizzly bears are friends. Bad things will happen if you do.


DON’T GO HIKING IN A WAR ZONE NEAR IRANIANS WITH GUNS. BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN IF YOU DO.

One more thing…Never…I repeat NEVER…seek employment as a hiking guide. Bad things will happen to others if you do.
