I didn’t call you an idiot for saying he was stupid. I called you an idiot for saying he was an SJW simply because he’s white and did something dumb.
Like fuck, you can’t even fucking read, christ.
US student is sentenced to 15 years hard labor in North Korea for trying to steal a political banner
I’m not saying he deserved to die. But I will say that if you’re going to make mistakes like this, don’t do it in a country where it’s going to be a colossal one that could even end up fatal.
Basically, if you’re going to tour North Korea as a westerner, and you have any fear that you won’t be able to act nearly robotic and won’t harbour any intention of practising any religion while in the country, then you legit need to consider going elsewhere.
Like I’ve seen North Korean customs cards before from people who have been. They roughly say something along the lines of, “Don’t bring these items into this country, failure to do so is punishable to the fullest extent.”
Yeah, don’t bring contraband and they won’t put you in a labour camp.
This thread needs to be close at this point; it’s just exposing people that doesn’t know common sense. :looney:
Odin a few pages ago has captured the perfect closing statement
I think people are just upset that so many people are making fun of the dude. The kid is dead and his family is obviously devastated over it. It just rubs people the wrong way when people are laughing over something terrible.
I think the kid did something really dumb but didn’t deserve to die. I think a lot of people feel that way.
Hopefully people learn from this kids mistake and stay out of shithole countries like North Korea.
Nothing is sacred on SRK. I think we should just get that out of the way. Even if it’s tasteless, it flies here.

Now i am wondering what kind of horrifying shit he was put up to to get in that coma.
Maybe something like this
[/quote]From a technical aspect I was actually somewhat impressed for a “pop” group compared to Worst Korean pop groups. They got them playing instruments and shaking ass.

Those broads were probably what enticed him to go. Probably saw them at a North Korean restaurant in China and got sucked in by the fever that you can find in a Crayola box.
What North Korea wants you to believe
How it really is (I think I found one of the nicer neighborhoods).
Fox news is currently attacking the majority of black people for not giving a fuck about this guy…
Which one of you linked them to this SRK thread?
This made me laugh harder than it really should have.
Too good plus testing of gif from new site = complete.
-Starhammer-
So many heartless assholes in this thread that are practically defending what happened.
Kid dies horribly and needlessly, after merely being caught doing a prank
SRK majority: “Durr that’s what you get. Break the law, do the death. lolz hilarity”.
Edit: Then again, at least 40% of you are probably just trolling a hot-topic issue. But that still leaves the other 60% as legit assholes.
There are quite a few appealing to simple logic.
Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
Be aware of where you are and what the fuck you’re doing.
Since you think American laws apply everywhere else, go do what he did elsewhere. Report back when you receive your Darwin Award.
Oh wait…
Ok sure. But i’d bet money that if you guys got taken and thrown into North Korea overnight, with zero homework or prep time? You wouldn’t last a month on your own without pissing off the law or violating a custom in SOME way.
Like the article i linked to about Eric Bischoff’s book. You could very well get your ass kicked just by talking bad about NK over the phone, or in a public place where you’re overheard by passing police.
Breh a prank?
This “kid”, as repeatedly stated, chose to steal something from North Korea of all fucking places. Even forgetting the fact that this is NK, one of the main rules of traveling abroad is don’t act like an asshole. Now I’m not arguing that he deserve to die or even spend 15 years busting rocks with his nails for doing that, but in the end Otto was responsible for Otto actions. I’m pretty sure many people the same age as him know not to fuck up that badly in North Korea. Basically Otto made a stupid choice of his own volition that in the end cost him his life.
Tl;dr Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
Holy hell guy, you’re acting like Otto was dragged to NK and fucked up by NK while there.
He went there on his own choice. He fucked up on his own choice. Otto was screwed by himself by fucking up in North Korea.
So how much do you know about littering laws in NK? Some countries have strict-ass laws about littering, wanting to throw you in jail for a few days or hefty fines or something. You could toss a tiny bubble-gum wrapper on the ground and be seen by somebody. Bam, you’re fuct. Not realizing how their law is.
Hell, you could be staying at a similar hotel and have one of those political signs fall on the floor by accident. You go to pick it up and place it upright, thinking nothing of it. Next thing you know you’re being accused of tampering. One thing leads to another and a month later…you’re dead as shit like this kid.
And SRK would be like: “Durr play stoopid games, win stoopid prizes lolz”.
