    "I DON'T WANT TO DIE," John Allen Chau wrote before paddling toward a remote Indian island whose people have resisted the outside world for thousands of years and are known to shoot arrows at outsiders.http://apne.ws/cb3iisu

        I don't either. Shooting arrows at him and breaking his canoe were clear messages of "stay away" which he ignored. So his death is his fault alone. The tribe acted in self defense. The man was a fool.

        The story by Reuters is missing a key element: Chau knew the risks but still wanted to go there cuz he thought the island was Satan's last stronghold and he wanted to "civilize" the natives. The nerve of this dude.

        My general rule is to leave people alone who want to be left alone. Especially when it’s illegal to visit their island.
