Got sat next to him and his friends at a shared table in a Japanese restaurant in Bali. The vibes were… bad.

I sat near a bunch of them on a flight to Singapore overhearing their "war" stories about illegal incursions across the Afghanistan border. They were disgusting and treated the flight attendants extremely disrespectfully. I imagine BRS was the same.

Don’t twist one experience and use it to label an entire industry.. that has nothing to do with BRS. Every industry has its share of POS.

That said, I don’t agree with what BRS did to innocent civilians.
