An American tourist was killed by arrows shot by protected tribesmen living in one of the world's most isolated regions tucked in India's Andaman islands, police said Wednesday.
John Chau, 27, had taken a boat ride with local fishermen before venturing alone in a canoe to the remote North Sentinel Island where the indigenous people live cut off completely from the outside world.

Contact with several tribes on the Andaman islands, set deep in the Indian Ocean, is illegal in a bid to protect their indigenous way of life and shield them from diseases 
Some said he wanted to convert them to Christianity...............

     Two days later he went well prepared So did Captain Cook 300 years ago. Why didn't people learn a valuable lesson from him?

    That’s an off limits island you need a permit to even sail to and not land. He knew he was in violation and the fishermen who took him knew they were in violation.

    The natives of North Sentinel Island are dead serious about protecting their borders.
We should learn from them.

    Seems Mr. Chau went to an awful lot of time and trouble to get murdered.
I bet he won’t do that again.
