Terrorism Scares Away the Tourists Europe Was Counting On

Count me as one of those who will not be touring Islam infested Europe.

There are other places to spend my tourist dollars.

One alternate place is Japan which has very tough immigration laws that are strictly enforced. We were there in May and thoroughly enjoyed the visit. Highly recommend spending your tourist dollars in Japan.

Let Europe wallow in the pig sty they have created.

The Indian Country Map published by the Southern California AAA has more places to go and see than can be accomplished in several trips. For a travel Guide, read the Tony Hillerman books or watch the exploits of Lt Joe Leaphorn and Sgt Jim Chee on NetFlix

I always wanted to go to Israel.

How long before Europeans start booking Vacations here to experience the second amendment?

Their politicians can’t tell terrorist from tourist

No desire for Euro travel now. They mostly think poorly of Americans in their hearts, think we’re yahoos, often jealous. I work with some, get their jabs often. They are largely hard leftists, stupidly inviting enemies across their borders. We shoiluod stop our travels there and our subsidies. Stay home until they turn actually, heartfully nice to us and get their crap together on muzzie immigration. And France can KMA forever.

The only area now that is safe in the Middle East is Israel, or the Holy Land.

“Oh, Henry...I can’t wait to go to Europe.”

“No muslim countries this year, Mable.”

I’m in North Carolina. Our daily fish-wrap, the Charlotte Observer, reminds us several times per week (if not daily) of all of the business the State is losing because our governor and legislature passed HB2 (hoping to protect women & children from having to share bathrooms, locker-rooms, and etc. with folks that identify as something other than their birth-gender). In that endeavor, the paper beats the drum again and again about how this government policy and law needs to change - specifically by focusing on perceived economic losses.

Now flip the scenario - the Euro tourist industry is suffering specifically because of fears of terrorism. So, does the same press demand a change in law and policy because of THESE economic losses? Of course not! Stay the course and support the suicidal globalists like Merkel & Hollande.

My late brother-in-law and sister were in the air force and stationed in Germany about 25 years ago. He was a Civil engineer and spent a lot of time in Turkey. Recently my sister mentioned that he had warned that the Turkish people he worked with were friendly but they would turn on us in a second.

Bermuda is beautiful.

In 2001 I had a vacation in Ireland planned for September. 9/11 happened but I went anyway, though the plane over there was half empty because people cancelled out of fear of terrorism. I had a great time and it was nice having a lot fewer tourists than normal.

This year I have a September trip to Scotland booked, and I'm not really worried about terrorism while I'm there.
