This is such an upsetting comment :( besides politics, Turkey is an awesome place to visit, with amazing history and people.

I hope you get to visit Turkey sometime in your life, I'm sure it will surprise you in a positive way.

Pass. I refuse to travel to countries where the barbaric act of lopping off someone's head is still common practice. If you don't agree with the politics too bad. You were born in the wrong place. Leave, and find better places to visit.

Don't get me wrong. It makes me sad too.

Turkey has been a secular state since 1924 and is quite modern and pleasant. I think you may have Turkey confused with Shariah friendly Saudi Arabia, a place I don't ever plan on visiting.

I'm sorry. can you provide a link, a source, that says "lopping off someone's head" is a common practice in Turkey? Why would you lie about something like this? What is your purpose?
