Disregarding any potential coms at the moment.

I never quite understood the sheer number of Americans who keep bringing Drugs like Marijuana to other countries. And then demanding Diplomatic action to get themselves out of a mess they created for themselves when they get arrested. Regardless of the reasons why they did and its legal status within the United States. Especially when it comes to going to Countries with well publicized problems with the United States. Who’d be looking for any reason to get Diplomatic leverage over the U.S. Leaving us to play a diplomatic song and dance to free them.

You’d think common sense would be like “Hey. Maybe this is a bad idea. Or maybe I should check the legal status of this drug and plan accordingly.”

The longer I look into things. The more I understand why many places consider American Tourists annoying at best and detest their existence at worst. Though it also often leads to more entertaining tales like the recent stories involving the American Streamer Johnny Somali. Who’s facing 10 years in a Korean Prison.
