And may I say, that your compassion is truly touching
I have no compassion since the gov forced me at gunpoint to pay for lazy folks life style.


You are a sick puppy. Go find yourself some professional help.

What sort of idiot doesn't have the sense to mute the audio if they find it so objectionable? The message in that video ought to resonate with anyone who possesses a human conscience.

When the starving start banging on your door, and you have nothing to give, and they think you are lying, we'll see where your compassion is. Its coming.

I think what you just stated is understandable, in light of the fact that you a.) still have family in Korea and b.) the poster in question ‘MrPiper’ appears to have comprehension issues, but my view is that from a purely humanitarian standpoint, the video I posted the URL to in my #11 speaks for itself. A horrific tragedy is taking place in North Korea and the appeasement of that regime has to end, I am not advocating sending more aid to the Kim regime which will do nothing but keep their military and their elites well fed, the only thing that Kim Jong Un and those backing him are going to understand is the use of force.

NUKE both sides of the DMZ

, north side only, the south is worth saving. Folks north Of the DMZ are walking dead.

the good thing about NK is it is a poster child for the communist and I love to hold it up to gun banners.

So good men should die to help those that gave up freedom?

look at all the good American men in WWII who gave their all for what? The Obama world?

What do you think should be done to NK if not nuke? You think more strongly worded Obama letters will help?

If the two koreas were united, I think in about 15 years they would become a bigger economy than the UK or France. The rank would probably end up something like: USA, china, japan, brazil, germany, korea.

It needs to happen.

China want a them separate, there is no leverage to change this and we do not have Reagan bankrupting the evil soviet empire to tear the wall down. Further the level of control over average citizens in nk is much greater than east Germany, which was occupied by Soviets and had friendly puppet governments installed. To equate the two is utterly ridiculous.

I did not say they didn’t have some similarities.

I am saying what you did, in equating the two, just because they have some similarities, that because unification worked for Germany it will for Korea too, is ridiculous - because there are also a lot of differences to their particular situation that weren’t issues for Germany.

Please refrain from replying to me.

Is this one of those magic droughts that only affect communist countries? Must be. I’m sure the hunger has nothing to do with the system itself.
