Sex tourism is risky business. He should not have gone to exploit sex workers in Columbia.

[@BaneBreaksBack-k2y]

He seems to be semi wealthy, could had gone to any place in Las Vegas and have the time of his life. Went to a Columbia for the pussy-cat, and ultimately this is his legacy or how people will remember him. He dies by chasing the p*ssy in one of the most dangerous countries right now. There is a reason it is call 100% Pure Columbian.

If he is a sex tourist he would have gone to south east Asia instead. He wasn’t a sex tourist. South East Asia is a place known for sex tourism for all over the world.

[@KXV237]

His love and legacy will always be remembered. His absence has been deeply felt by many. There will never be another Tou Ger Xiong in the Hmong community. So heart-broken 😢

[@ashton8878]

Narcissistic. He got what he’s looking for.

[@aznracer816]

Its always sad with a lost of life, but he knew what he was getting into and the risk.

[@charleedoessolarmaintenain9149]

My parents used to tell me “Nothing good happens after 11” and “boring is good” Now that I’m older they were 100% correct. RIP to the big bro but learn from his mistake.

Good luck giving justice for your bro.

Nothing can't be justice for a human life.

[@abrahamlincolnkickss5822]

According to some of his close friends, some Hmong women hit on him but never did any had any luck. His personality and image are big, him wanting to choose something else instead and eventually led to a sad outcome.
