    As wrong and as dangerous as that is, it's interesting that he would actually do that.

    Got to agree with that. He's lucky he returned home in one piece. I guess he learned a bit about culture and opinions there.

    You know, I was about to call him dumb, and if he did get shot or something, I would have...

    But that boy's inspiring...

    I think what this kid did was really brave. I wonder what his parents did when he got home.

    This kid was just bored and ritch is all. I don't think he was brave. He was just showing off and thought he would get some spotlight time...which he did. He didn't even get in trouble or anything. How many parents dont' realize that their kid has been missing or a $45,000 charge has been put on the bank account or something. This was NOT a cheap excursion(sp?). He took a taxie over 100mi, not to mention like 3 plane trips just to get to where he took the taxie from.

    To me, it just looks like he was showing off. That's it.
