Don't drink the water!

UNCLE FARC WANTS YOU! And me! But what they got was a pretty twenty something girl from hicksville five miles from where I grew up. 
This came out when government troops raided the camp where she'd been living for the last five years and captured her diaries.

Now who hasn't at some point in their lives thought: "Why not join the revolutionary armed forces? VIVA, VIVA!"  
I realize that moving to the Colombian jungle might sound like an awesome plan when you grow up stepping in cow pastures. But at the end of the day, it's just not a good idea!  As it stands, Tanja has either already been executed for writing mean things about her fellow rebels. Or if she'd still alive, is  facing 15 years in prison once the Columbian government gets their hands on her. 

Proving that in Hicksville, stupid is in the water; another local decided to take advantage of the fact that the country is now aware of their existence for the first time since the Dutch abandoned the hunter/gatherer lifestyle and send a powder letter to city hall.
Not because Tanja's father happens to work there... but to protest the fact that they want to move a WO2 monument to another location. 

These are my people. You make me so proud.
