What a waste.
That’s a warzone if you care about your kids keep them clear because kids are too stupid to understand danger
I am so sorry for their loss.
I am also sorry that they died trying to help people who really can’t be helped.
Any solution to the problems in Haiti must start with the Haitians.
They don`t teach common sense in high school.
Horrible. Condolences to Ben Baker, David and Alicia Lloyd, and the remainder of Davy and Natalie’s family and friends.
3 gang guys that come to the bakery for bread a couple times a week, I asked them what their plans are. They said ‘run to the Dominican Republic when the fighting starts.’”
Sad. It was apparently a religious ministry, and I respect that.
But if those two young people went to Haiti because they felt pressure to do so because of her parent’s position in the government and in the organization...that is something their family will have to live with.
Reminds me of the plot of Rambo.
Some are blinded by faith and make dumb decisions.
If Trump were President he would have sent in the Marines already. But I guess they’re too busy delivering aid to Hamas in Gaza.
[Missouri state Rep. Ben Baker said Friday that his “heart is broken in a thousand pieces” after his daughter and son-in-law were taken hostage then later killed by a gang in Haiti.
Natalie and Davy Lloyd were among a group of missionaries who were ambushed as they left a church on Thursday, the nonprofit Missions in Haiti Inc. wrote on Facebook.]
Oh my Lord. Horrible.
The world would be a better place if Haiti was nuked.
that being said, all missionaries should get the heck out of Haiti immediately and the US govt should send armed helicopters to do it...
young pale faced women should definitely not go there....that culture is one of hate and destruction.
Actually, I think God will see them as saints.
Mooslims or Communists?
They should have read a little less from the Bible and a little more from Scott Adams.
They were doing God’s work.
Yours is a discussing post.
My neighbor’s large church has had a mission Haiti, and every year they send a couple dozen white suburban kids, who must raise money to pay their own way, to do “mission work” for two weeks - stuff like picking up trash, planting flowers, and taking Instagram pics with skinny little black kids.
They aren’t allowed to leave he compound alone and must travel with an armed guard when venturing outside as a group. Of course, all travel has stopped now
I am conflicted - while I admire their Christian desire to do good, train-up their children in this mindset, and create community among themselves, I find their efforts extremely naive, and, frankly, useless. The end result seems to be cheap virtue-signaling. Its been the exact same thing for 30 years. That anyone would risk their life over this is stupid. They are indeed as innocent as doves, but forgot the “wise as snakes” part.
I apologize for my cynicism.
