Vigils planned for hikers held in Iran

Dang, can't make it...but I hope someone passes out copies of the State Dept's Iranian travel warning.

Can we hold a vigil across the street from them, supporting the imprisonment of stupid American liberals in Iran?

I'm assuming "vigil" is a typo for "celebration" since they're currently enjoying the culture they love so much?

Here is how stupid Berkeley liberals are. While the nation can't stop talking about how f'n stupid these three stooges are, they are calling MORE attention to it by holding a vigil for them. You don't see a lot of intelligent people stepping in here and going public with support for these idiots.

If they ever get released, they should be punished by our government upon their return by having to wear sandwich boards on the busy streets of L.A. that identify them as the Iran hiker idiots who thought Iran has a lovely culture so much more enlightened than the US.

Please do NOT buy the book that we all know is forthcoming. This country makes too many idiots wealthy already.

What exactly does a vigil do anyway? What is the point? Seems like a girly thing to me.

Furthermore, they should also pay back, if any, public money spent getting these idiots back!

I just love posting messages of hate when ever possible. It makes me feel like I have power over this very confusing world.

Whether by accident or stupidity: These people are American Citizens!!! Have a heart people. We need to get them back on US soil as soon as possible. I do not believe that they purposely crossed the border, and they are now being held ONLY as pawns for the deal that Iran's President wants.

This is the best opportunity for A-10 practice since the G-20 in Pittsburgh

Either way, they put THEMSELVES in a place that no intelligent US citizen would. If they weren't so damn stupid, they wouldn't be pawns. AND, they can only be pawns if the US plays Iran's game. The simplest way to get them back is to ignore them...Iran is like a spoiled child...if you don't pay attention to them, they will tire of the game and move on to something else.

A Vigil !
Wasnt he the older brother of Wyattt Earp?

CNN just reported the hikers go 25 years in prison for entering the country illegally.
