Report Says Ban Ki-moon May Run for President of South Korea

I think this just shows how powerful name recognition can be in a national election because I cannot think of one thing Ban Ki-moon has done at the United Nations that is noteworthy other than being the first Asian Secretary General:

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s confidants have sounded out the possibility of Ban’s running for president in his native South Korea, an opposition politician claimed Monday, despite Ban’s apparent objection to get involved in local politics.

Ban’s second five-year term is set to end at the end of 2016, a year before South Koreans go to the polls to elect a new president who will replace President Park Geun-hye.

Park’s single five-year term ends in early 2018, and by law, she cannot seek re-election.

Kwon Roh-kap, an adviser to the main opposition New Politics Alliance for Democracy, claimed people seen as confidants to Ban discussed the possibility of Ban’s running for South Korea’s top office on the opposition ticket.

He said he told Ban’s confidants that he respects the U.N. chief and that the opposition should ask Ban to join the party and compete in the party’s primary for the presidential nomination for the election.  [Yonhap]

“I cannot think of one thing Ban Ki-moon has done at the United Nations that is noteworthy”

He’s on par with the female S. Korean president PGH because I can’t think of one noteworthy thing she has done during her term. So much for that irrational S. Korean saying that goes “Koreans are the hardest working people in the world.”

“I cannot think of one thing Ban Ki-moon has done at the United Nations that is noteworthy”

He leads the UN arm of the Global Warming Alarmist community and has pushed for agreements which would ultimately hurt Korea’s manufacturing economy and diminish the standard of living for Korean citizens.

Thanks for nothing, Ban Ki-moon.

Poor Tbone is always quick to point the finger at “dishonest”, “lazy”, and “careless” Koreans…

…but he has a history of dishonesty¹, laziness², and carelessness³.

¹ police record in the States
² slacked his way through a number of “teaching” jobs; got fired from a number of “teaching” jobs
³ immediately returned to America and got into an inattentive Korean-inspired car accident

You have no evidence of such nonsense while the above shows us that you can’t apply common S. Korean knowledge to your claim = CH can’t apply common sense to daily life probably because he’s recently shown us that he doesn’t know simple math and English though has beginning Ebonics skills.

“common S. Korean knowledge”

Police records in the states are all “clean” for E-2 visa English teachers in S. Korea because S. Korean immigration only accepts “Clean Background/Criminal Records” from English teachers. You can’t show me otherwise so don’t even think about trying to check the S. Korean immigration website.

However, Chickenhead is a S. Korean criminal because he has taught beginner Ebonics in S. Korea which is against the S. Korean law. Even if he was qualified(college degree) to teach regular English he did that illegally in S. Korea because he’s never had an E-2 visa since he couldn’t even pass the S. Korean immigration requirements = FBI criminal background check requiring a “clean criminal record.” CH doesn’t have a “clean criminal record” so S. Korea would deny him a language teaching visa.

Whatever Chickenhead is/line of work or calls himself has a higher crime rate than English teachers in S. Korea which means English teachers in S. Korea are more law abiding than Chickenhead and his kind/peers.

Chickenhead has a criminal record from the states and doesn’t have to prove as much to S. Korean immigration because they accept almost any criminal “contractor,” kind of like how American(and non-American) servicemembers are now recruited and able to “serve” within/for the USA department of defense. We all know that as a “contractor,” police records are acceptable for contractors which leads me to believe he’s a former crook/delinquent living and working in S. Korea.

S. Korean immigration also checks for HIV/AIDS so dirty Chickenhead would fail that blood test too, how many S. Korean women has CH intentionally spread HIV/AIDS?

That’s funny, Tbone.

You have an arrest record in Colorado.

I didn’t look into the the details… or find out why it didn’t affect the Korean criminal background check…

…unless that is the real reason you left the easiest and highest paying job you will ever have…

…but I am starting to get curious on both fronts.

Would you like to deny that you were arrested in Colorado?

Or should I poke around a bit through public records and put some more details here to help remind you?

I’m not a bad guy… so give your side of the story and I will never mention it again… and will ask others to do the same.

Deny it, and every detail will be permanent internet record any time your real name gets googled by a future employer.

Protip1: Nobody knows who you are and your secret is safe with me. Take the first one. It is a better deal for you in the long run.

Protip2: Don’t talk nonsensical smack to me without expectations of getting your peepee smacked.

CH,

You are either a top tier bullshiiter or you are one of the craftiest dudes alive.

I have to wonder, if you really do have knowledge of Tbone’s particulars, how long have you been sitting on that knowledge?

I predict your only response from him will be denial, belligerence, and more nonsense.

This is starting to get interesting……

“Protip2: Don’t talk nonsensical smack to me without expectations of getting your peepee smacked.”

Ewww, you seem angry now!

You can stick your threats up your big rear-end hole arse.

Let’s get something straight, you started in with me first here at Rokdrop and have not relented. What do you expect? Rokdrop.net doesn’t evolve around you Chickenhead unless I missed something/rule GI Korea posted that says nobody can play by the same rules Chickenhead does.

Since you claim to know me then come and get me punk face!

“I’m not a bad guy… so give your side of the story and I will never mention it again… and will ask others to do the same.”

You will need the help of “others” if/when you attempt to take me on punk face!

Hmmm, let’s suppose you somehow obtained my personal information. You either did it illegally or against this/that blog/website rules and/or with the help of someone else who broke blog website rules.

That is the definition of a “bad guy” and for you to find me that interesting to discuss with other people is kind of funny. Chickenhead, I’m afraid you’re sick in the head!!! I’d advise you to seek professional help with your problems.

“Protip1: Nobody knows who you are and your secret is safe with me. Take the first one. It is a better deal for you in the long run.”

“Take the first one” ~ Take the first one what? Chickenhead, you get an ‘F’ in English for attempting to proposition me. You need to include something in order to finish your thought otherwise your “Protip1” doesn’t make sense dummy. Your thought is incomplete you stupid Mo Fo! Ebonics doesn’t work in the real written world dummy, shall I give you the English rule when propositioning someone or can you figure it out yourself? Perhaps you should seek the help of your “others” if that English concept is too confusing for you.

I would really expect that tbone is just upset at the accuracy of CH’s barbs… He seems to have confirmed every detail…

And then there is the ungrammatical Grammar Nazi schtick, with a heaping side of ad hominem..

I don’t think all websites that supply criminal records prohibit publication. Especially those involving voluntary body function crimes:

“In Suwon District Court on 17 September 2014, SPC Nicholas P. Myers, B Btry, 1/38th FA, USAG Casey, was convicted of Indecent Act by Compulsion and Obstruction of Performance of Official Duties. His adjudged sentence was imprisonment for 10 months, suspended for 2 years. He was also ordered to register as a sex offender.”

Maybe tbone and CH can do the cage match thing… I’d volunteer to be in Dallas that day and miss it… 😉

Free speech is only okay for Chickenhead according to Chickenhead or else he’ll threaten you while admitting to possible hacking jobs, conspiring with others to obtain said personal information, etc…CH threatens me physically and threatens to give out my personal information and that isn’t “annoying” to GI Korea while setnaffa conveniently ignores the same but is bothered by “ad hominem” which CH is often full of.

For the record, I’ve never physically threatened anyone on Rokdrop but it’s okay for Chickenhead to elevate the rhetoric and certainly ain’t “annnoying.”

Summary: I was the first to comment on this thread and Chickenhead didn’t like what I said so he suggests I’m a “slack,” have a “police record,” was “fired from numerous teaching jobs,” and lastly “got into an inattentive Korean-inspired car accident.”

Chickenhead says “Tbone is always quick to point the finger at “dishonest”, “lazy”, and “careless” Koreans”

Now look at the irony of his first comment or No. 3…
“³ immediately returned to America and got into an inattentive Korean-inspired car accident”

He says I’m quick to point the finger at Koreans but ironically he made one up himself without any of my help. Here, Chickenhead used the “careless” and/or “inattentive drivers” accusation at me to suggest that Koreans are “careless” and/or “inattentive drivers.”

The irony of Chickenhead and one-sided comments by others.

Come on Tbone.

You know I am 90% bluff.

I really don’t want to rat you out and further burden an already burdened life. You are a very, very low-value target… more like a no-value target. Sorry. That is kind of insult to injury, isn’t it.

I have said before, there is a line between events on the internet and in the real world. I won’t cross that lightly… certainly not for smack talking on an infantile scale. “Waaah! ChickenHead has AIDS”. Not exactly an end-of-my-world scale put-down.

… but that is worthy of a peepee smacking… which was gleefully done… as it was the right time for other reasons.

If I really wanted to ruin a life over internet smack talking, it would be Guitard… who is smart, knowledgeable, and experienced… but instead of using that power to strengthen America or assist those in need, he is an entrenched member of the corrupt class… using his abilities to take advantage of those around him for selfish reasons while leveraging his long-term insider status for perpetuating the corrupt and broken systems that hurt America and its military. His rationalizations, justifications, and excuses for corruption, as well as his surly attitude to those who question him, are simply a symptom of his arrogance and greed. After looking into it, any squeeze he got would not be for internet smack talking but for his self-centered real-world actions which would displease honorable servicemembers and loyal Americans…and be blood in the water for investigators looking for a scapegoat… so there may be an ideal time to throw him to the wolves. Did I shamelessly mix my metaphors there? I think I did.

Nonetheless, I can wait… for years… as it is more satisfying to lurk… and then crush dreams just as they are within reach.

Tbone, you do not have to blame ROKdrop… as it had no involvement in my little fishing expidition. Further, even if I had access to some secret ROKdrop file, I would not use it. You must grasp that this is a game to me… at least in your case. Cheat codes take away the fun.

What I will tell you is that there are fundamental flaws in internet security which go beyond the little Gravitar lecture I gave.

One example everyone can understand…

Every tracking beacon, web bug, cookie, invasive script, etc. identifies and tracks you… not just to Facebook, twitter, Amazon, etc., but to anybody else with a small wall of computers who might be looking for you…from NSA to FBI to Russian hackers to Nigerian identity thieves to ChickenHead.

And that is just one trick in a big, big, big box of tricks.

…and even if you are not a specific target, this is all being done anyway… automatically in large databases by lots of players for vague reasons ranging from “just in case” to very specific reasons like “how much more noisy-flashy crap can we sell him”.

…or, on the dark(er) end, who is most valuable/susceptible to state-sponsored blackmail (such as what pr0n they look at vs what their importance is) to how valuable their identity is for short-term (credit card) to medium-term (hot checks) to long-term (shell company ghost ownership) theft.

I cannot beg enough to military members, important contractors, and even everyone else, to be ultra-super cautious in social networking, over-scripted sites, and taking advantage of all the “free” services that have a business model of collecting (and monitizing) not just your actual identity or shopping habits… but your core personality…your likes and dislikes, your political leanings, your discomforts… your fears… your perversions… and what isn’t known or what you have not revealed can frequently be constructed with reasonable certainty through available information and statistics.

Also, don’t look at pr0n you wouldn’t be proud to share with your wife, mother, and coworkers… as “free” pr0n is one giant identity-tracking honeypot… as are some “free” proxies.

And none of this information is actually secret… except to the little people who don’t fully grasp its existence or importance.

The next great divide in society… within a decade or two… will be over the ability to collect/access and cleverly use data… which will translate to economic, lifestyle, social, educational, etc., division.

I don’t want to be on the punk end of this division.

I am pretty convinced a bogeyman has a hold on some politicians, business leaders, activists, etc… but I am also pretty convinced some of these “holds” are by other nations, corporations, and organized criminal groups… and maybe motivated individuals looking to change the world for good or bad… as it appears possible to do as a hobby.

Tbone. Don’t worry. Keep talking your smack. I won’t rat you out. You are more of a message boy than a target.

“What I will tell you is that there are fundamental flaws in internet security which go beyond the little Gravitar lecture I gave.”

More typical Wa Wonk Wa/Blah Blah Blah by the mentally Psycho Chickenhead who needs professional mental help. The below link fits Chickenhead to the ‘T’ with his “What I will tell(lecture) you is…”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss2hULhXf04

Chickenhead dreams that his “lecturing” only meant something.

Oh, and don’t watch Internet p0rn because Chickenhead said…the Internet police is watching. Chickenhead watches a lot of Fox(FEAR)news…

CH, instead of thinking about me so much and my private parts in a violent negative manner…

“Don’t talk nonsensical smack to me without expectations of getting your peepee smacked.”

…I’d bet if/when you attempt to violently get me(“smack my peepee”) you’d instead end up pacifying on my “peepee” like the pacifying s u c k l i n g petulant child that you are. Would you like me to slap my “peepee” across your cheeks as you pacify s u c k l e on it?

I don’t usually speak so crudely but Chickenhead has displayed some of the crudest speak on Rokdrop(usually toward women) in the past so I’m just playing by his rules. He secretly likes men(given his gay/HIV/AIDS lifestyle) and doesn’t want the Internet police to find out even though they already know.

Fear thy Chickenhead(Guitard and others) because he will seek you out(he has a hard-on ~ after dropping Viagra), spend time and do research when he’s not on Rokdrop if you dare respond to him incorrectly or say something he doesn’t like. The funny thing is he doesn’t know simple math nor English so I’m not holding my breath waiting for him/his threats with the help of his “others” to GET ME even though it would be funny to watch him try.

“Anonymous” the perfect Chickenhead sock puppet.

Good grief, Tbone.

Problems don’t go away with substance abuse… and they frequently become worse due to poor decision-making and careless mouth-running.

You are like the loud irritating drunk at the end of the bar who everyone ignores for a while until he mouths off to the wrong guy who walks over to beat his azz… and then is saved by a nice guy who diffuses the situation… only to mouth off to both guys… resulting in a double beatdown… leaving the irritating drunk in a pile on the floor blaming everyone else.

Get a grip on yourself and your life, Tbone.

Anyway…

Anonymous is not my sock puppet, of course… but the accusations were interesting…

…and led to a previously-unnoticed record of a complaint against Tbone filed with the Korean police… which built some credibility that maybe his stateside arrest WAS for doing something perverted in a public restroom…

…though, it should be noted that Tbone’s Korean troubles were for irritation rather than perversion… seemingly due to refusing to vacate an apartment after being fired.

I don’t know if it my desire for peepee suckling or inverted missionary submissive anal that is driving my curiosity… but I am getting more curious.

Getting a copy of the American police report actually requires physical work rather than automated search or local phone call…

…but it is starting to be worth the effort.

Oh yeah I remember he posted a youtube video of himself (without his face being revealed), being kicked out of his Korean apartment. He posted the link here too and whined and whined how Koreans are mistreating him. lol.. I just knew he brought it onto himself.

Shame on you, Tom.

Because you wanted to be a show-off, you ruined the setup for a very elegant reveal.

You have upset the natural course of this conversation and driven Tbone away before it could all play out… though it remains to be seen if he has the wisdom to stay away.

But it should be noted that Tom v3.0 not only has a big mouth, he also has big ears… something that should not be lost on all you Tom-watchers.

It took GI Korea awhile(2nd comment) to realize what Chickenhead said because he’s practically immune to physical violent(trained to kill) threats and finds other “annoying” things/people more concerning.

GI Korea: “you can…
register for a ROK Drop account and send angry instant messages discussing whatever you want! ;-)”

So, if you find me “annoying” be sure to send instant messages discussing me(personal information obtained illegally) but not about Chickenhead’s physical violent threats and/or hacking/illegal/”bad man,” activity.

By the way, after Chickenhead threatened me physically on this website I contacted the authorities and learned that Chickenhead is a known sodomite found guilty in every state where sodomy is against the law. This is perhaps why Chickenhead is so fed up with the US gov’t peeping on him(whenever he’s in a GOP state) and his Internet searches/gay porn hits.

Put simply, it sounds like GI Korea has condoned illegally obtaining personal information/hacking in whatever way as long as it is shared with him or anyone else through “instant messages.” Not much difference between you and Edward Snowden aye?

I’m curious how you came to the conclusion that your personal information was obtained “illegally”.

You should reread the terms of service agreements on some of the electronics you own and some of the “free” internet services you use. You should look at what documents are considered public records. You should recognize that your “personal information” is not personal.

You should also understand that in 2003 the Supreme Court invalidated state sodomy laws with Lawrence v. Texas… which may not change my status as a “known sodomite” but has certainly kept me from being “found guilty”… well… except against laws of nature… but American courts don’t enforce those laws. Presumably the statute of limitations has run out on my excellent run of pre-2003 sodomy.

Side Note: Lawrence v. Texas proved that steers are, in fact, not the only thing that comes out of Texas.

Also, the pictures you took of yourself with your cellphone in the mirror were inadvertently uploaded to the cloud and shared publicly… no hacking involved. You know the ones I mean… unless there are more I am unaware of.

Keep it classy, Tbone.
