    Makes you feel lucky to live were you do. i did just heard on the news that North Korea has warned the US not to mess with them. They are ready for war. Don't know how safe people would feel with Trump in charge. He is like a man with a box of new toys. Very dangerous toys. North Korean leader only cares about himself. He would sacrifice millions of people and not give a toss. Two dangerous idiots who might end up going head to head.

    Did u ever think.... we only hear about North Korea from our "leaders".... we never hear about their side of the story

    Who knows if they are as bad as we say. TPTB always needs an "enemy" otherwise people focus on things at home.

    Try visiting North Korea. Only certain places you are allowed to go. As in about 1/10th of the country. Or even less. You are guarded at all times. Have a friend who went. Curious friend. Want to be to go there. None of this walking off on your own doing the whole sight seeing things. That could land you in prison. They have tourist rules. You get to see what they want you to see.

    I don't blame them TBH.... if I was in charge foreigners would be guarded and watched too.... they are an unknown quantity IMO.

    You had a bloke from the US in prison in North Korea for disrespecting the leader. Was set free about a month back and he died of a heart attack two days later. It is not a tourist destination. No idea why anybody would want to visit the country at all. Millions is made every year from Visitors to every country around the world. Think you are getting tourists mixed up with terrorists. People who come to stay in a country for ill intent and purposes. They are the unknown quantity. A tourist simply comes and goes. They are needed to generate income.

    That sucks but like you said why go to North Korea at all?

    A lot safer if you stay in the good old U S OF A!

    I can't even believe some of this thread. The guy is a dictator/maniac/monster trying to destroy the world with nuklear(sp) weapons. We still have people in his clutches, which are the worst prisons in the world. He needs to be destroyed. Period.
