[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 51988, member: 126"] Re: Government as god I just saw another article about N Korea... estimated 200k peeps in their prison camps where they often die of malnutrition. No need to sneak in cameras, these camps are visible from satellite imagery. The elephant in the room about N Korea is how China the real big dog in that neighborhood gives them license or cover to behave so badly. While it may be difficult for us to imagine, people from N Korea actually want to emigrate (escape?) into China. Compared to N. Korea, China is a much better neighborhood. But China forcibly returns N Koreans back to N Korea. The new Kim Jum ill, regime not only punishes these escapee but sends older and younger relatives along, so they won't be lonely in the prison camps. I wouldn't feel too sorry for ourselves about some over-enthusiastic mall cop in Amerika(?), we have it damn good, compared to many parts of the world. There is always room for improvement, but that's why we have elections. JR [/QUOTE]
