Rich people are crazy. and today's example are these rich people who supposedly paid for the opportunity to travel to an active war zone and shoot civilians for sport. right, and this went down during the siege of Sarajevo between 1992 and 1996, when Serbian militias were committing genocide in Bosnia. and those militias allegedly charged wealthy Americans, Italians and Russians between 80 and €100,000 to come participate in murder tourism. right, They’d post up in sniper positions overlooking the city and then pick from a price list with rates depending on the target. with one journalist saying that that “children cost the most, followed by men, preferably in uniform and armed, and then women and then finally old people who could be shot for free.” and they said you'd never suspect some of these people. saying the murder tours, they went home and continued their normal lives. They were respectable in the opinion of those who knew them. and we're now learning about this because one, recently Italian prosecutors opened a probe into it. and two, a U.S. representative who sits on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, announced her own investigation, saying, “paying money to shoot civilians and even worse, to shoot children, is a level of evil our country cannot and will not tolerate. Both the Italian and Bosnian governments will be sharing any and all information regarding any Americans That may be implicated.” and adding, “if there are any Americans who have engaged in this, they deserve to be charged and prosecuted.” But for now, let me know your thoughts, opinions, and reactions. And of course, follow to stay in the loop.
