Idiots

I often wonder about people who go to known danger spots in the world and then end up in danger. Sometimes I wonder if I've been unreasonable for thinking them idiotic.

Now there's a couple who appear to have had their boat seized and been kidnapped while sailing in Somali waters. It's well known about Somali Pirates and they still went. They are retired and they just sail around the world so it's not like some who do volunteer work in dangerous places.

I wondered if I was being unreasonable; perhaps there was no other route for what they wanted. But there is. A major shipping company has made detours and other sailing types have said they shouldn't have been there. Idiots.
