Always wondered how much truth there was to this. https://www.weirdasianews.com/2016/08/31/north-korean-olympians-rewarded-with-money-punished-in-coal-mines/

If the players end up in the coal mines probably won’t improve their game much.

Looks like Moon’s team hates donuts, too… http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/tech/2017/09/694_236868.html

Mike, Moon is going to cut off his nose to spite his face. Paris Baquette shuts down, 54000 people out of a job. Going the way of Venezuela….

From based Dilbert merchant:

“President Trump just proved that the folks with the highest rate of brain damage (according to science) think he’s Hitler. #concussions”

What do you all make of this?

Crazy? Trying to get kicked out? Nobody else noticed? Military does no social media background check?

TLDR: West Point Graduate promoting communism (and other political statements) in uniform.

I worry about this country. Our Congress can’t perform its most basic job of passing a budget, the NFL idiocy, and now this obtuse West Point commie.
Funny, I always thought bending the knee was an act of subservience, to a tyranny in particular (but most of what I know about that stuff I learned watching Game of Thrones).

Someone a while back (years ago) in this forum linked to this guy, and I’ve read his blog ever since.
This post seems pertinent:

Mattis could direct a General Court Martial find that cadet is guilty of Misbehavior in the Face of the Enemy and have him hanged. He’ll probably get off with a BCD, not a DD. But he definitely knows better.

Otto Warmbier’s parents open up about son’s torture by North Korea:

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/09/26/otto-warmbiers-parents-open-up-about-sons-torture-by-north-korea-are-terrorists.html

“When they spotted their son, they found Otto on a stretcher, jerking violently, producing the terrifying cries.“Otto had a shaved head, he had a feeding tube coming out of his nose, he was staring blankly into space, jerking violently,” Fred said. “He was blind. He was deaf. As we looked at him and tried to comfort him it looked like someone had taken a pair of pliers and rearranged his bottom teeth.” They also stated he had a large scar on his right foot.

I wish we would just bomb the shit out of NK instead of just praying for sanctions to work.

Andy,

The whole Otto Warmbier thing is very, very odd.

Everything North Korea does makes some sort of twisted sense and has a clear path to some sort of gain.

This makes no sense and there was no gain… an opportunity NK seldom squanders.

It would seem there is a big part of the story missing…

…and it is likely known by people who don’t want to say for fear of disrupting the narrative.

“UK allows drunk as an excuse for felony assault.”

That excuse wouldn’t work for a dude.
Maybe they’ll be excused for vehicular homicide next, if they’re drunk enough.

Not that it really matters if these were the tests done outside the perimeter.

“UK allows drunk as an excuse for felony assault.”

I wonder how that smug little bítch would feel if others got let off for a violent felony due to alcohol…

…let’s say ràpe, for example.

But seriously, the “stabbing” was not even close to what my mind conjured when I read the headline… and probably does neither her nor society any good to fill a jail cell.

This should be primarily a civil matter between her and the victim.

It is unfortunate the court had to excuse her actions due to alcohol instead of admitting her violence was not that big of deal and easily stopped with a couple of hard bîtchslaps or a good punch to the mouth.

It is also unfortunate the court is encouraging this crazypússy to become a doctor.

Did Moon OK it?
http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/opinion/2017/09/667_237008.html

Yee godz how’d this guy land the chief editor position? He mind reads and speculates more than CNN and MSNBC combined.

Smokes,

Hindsight will show that “peace begger” Moon is doing the right thing.

When America attacks North Korea, Moon’s attitude may save Seoul from a serious revenge attack.

I really didn’t have much of an opinion on the factual content of that piece, the “did Moon OK it” was the actual article title. Wasn’t a fan of all the fortune telling in the piece is all…

As for saving the RoK from any revenge who knows, look what Saddam did in Kuwait during the `91 retreat.

Give Denny a prize! The average American’s priorities are pretty pathetic of late. I told you before, just name me King of America and I’ll outright ban sports entertainment on the whole. 😎

GI, the objective truth doesn’t matter to Democrats and their pet “journolists”. Yes, o, not a. Look it up.
