Bunch of distractions, lock up the child molesting murderers.

what a waste of tax dollars honestly, pedos should be shot on site or at the very least publicly executed

I don't believe DPRNK is communist or that it's as horrible there as the news lets on, people that have gone there say it's nice...
lol
It's not communist, it's a theocracy. If you want to go to NK, you can just go, or be kidnapped. If you want to leave, you must defect.

not all societies need to be free and open and everything, I support American principals and values of course but in America. The japs for example did pretty well under a military dictatorship

The idea that America is some great land of free speech where we all share principles and dialogue with one another is pure mythology. America has a long history of rejecting 'Merikan valoos' when push came to shove. Loyalists were chased out of the colonies and their press buildings were burned to the ground. Dissidents during the Civil War were rounded up and thrown into jail and similar anti-dissident behavior reared its head again during WW1 with Socialists being imprisoned. As one Monarchist intellectual I know of calls it, "The illusion of inclusion. As long as people think they're apart of the system in some small, small, small way then they won't riot and participate in seditious acts.
I think Trump uses North Korea to distract and control the media. When Trump fired missiles at Assad the media was happy. The media wants to see the US involved in some war. Preferably Russia. But when Trump succeeds to get the US into a conflict with China or NK then Russia is off the table for a while.

it's pretty funny too, the were present in the negotiations but the actual ceasefire agreement makes it seem like everything they said was ignored

hopefully, I'm not sure what china wants exactly but so far it's going well and if the governor of Guam is optimistic about how things are going I'll defer to his judgement as he's facing nuclear annihilation

Yeah, Baked Alaska's Twitter feed gives me the exact same impression. I can't side with the Charlottesville Police and politicians who praise them on this. This and civil asset forfeiture are things the police do wrong, not shooting Michael Brown and other things the left complains about.

I never would have guessed that so many people never even heard of civil asset forfeiture until I bring it up in conversations about policing and other govt. bullshit
