Some kid sitting at the next screen sees this and is waiting for you outside with twelve of his mates and a few flaming torches.
This does seem pretty unlikely in that when travelling you'd tend to stick to other parts of this site (and avoid the other one where our video poster is more likely to hang out all together) same as you'd avoid expressing an opinion on anything religious or political unless you knew the other people well and wouldn't be overheard. It is still a valid point though, I once stayed in a hotel in either Morocco or Algeria and a guy I half knew was reading some sort of spy novel. The huge US flag on the front cover was getting him some funny looks given they were bombing Iraq at the time.
Shouldn't this thread be in the bar unless people on the ground are seeing a reaction to what happened?
