    A young American couple who took a year-long bike trip around the world, believing that evil was a make-believe concept, took a fatal route in Tajikistan near the Afghan border, where alleged ISIS terrorists stabbed them to death.

    Jay Austin and Lauren Geoghegan, 29, quit their jobs last year in order to make their trip. Austin was a vegan who worked for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development; Geoghegan, a vegetarian who worked in the Georgetown University admissions office.

    The omission of blog information us astounding by the biased media.

    I feel bad for them, because they are ignorant.

    Some people learn the hard way unfortunately that life isn't the fairytale Liberals pretend it is.

    RIP to both of them, and hope their families and friends can cope.

    These liberals took the bike trip through ISIS territory to prove that everyone is human and that they wanted to prove it.

    reminds me of that lady that went kayaking up the secluded drug cartel superhighway. What exactly did these people think was going to happen...ISIS would run out and cheer them on their way? This demonstrates how the leftist mindset works. I bet they understood conservatives right around the time the stabbing began.

    Misleading title they basically went on bike ride through an ISIS camp. They were not killed by ISIS in America as the title does not clearly state. Either way they are dumb.

    Not just the family, but Americans in general...especially those feelings ridden ones of the left who think all people and cultures are the same.

    They aren't. And a newsflash, Americans aren't welcome in many places, and to go there is just plain stupid.

    The article does not state america and the first sentence of the post clearly delineates it was not in the US.
    When one has nothing intelligent to say, make up stupidity I suppose

    The thread title. Couple killed in ISIS attack is vague, here? there? where? US soil? Hotzone? Safe zone?

    Obviously you are not familiar with what a THREAD ****ING TITLE IS.

    We know. These liberals wanted to prove they could bike through ISIS territory to show that humanity isn't all that bad no matter where you are.

    They were idiots.

    Remember how, if we maintained Reagan's Space Wars program, we would've had the necessary defenses against ballistic missiles? Trump's simply restarting what the US could've had an edge on, way back then. Remember how Nukes won us WW2? I hate military spending too, but the best way to curb it is like with our highways: Do it once, and you won't have to do it for a long while.

    And right before our eyes fake news is being born, I fell for it.

    This road they were on was popular among tourists and Tajikstan is NOT an ISIS controlled region.

    NY Times:. "Though Islamist movements have been active in Central Asia for decades, they have not been known for targeting Western tourists, who visit the historical cities of the Silk Road in Uzbekistan and hike and cycle in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. The Ferghana news site suggested that the attack could frighten off tourists."
