Have you guys heard about this guy? This shit is kind of weird. I will just greentext what I know about him.
His story:
>21 year old uni student
>says his family is poor
>his dad owns a small factory that makes "barely enough to pay the bills"; 2 siblings still in high school; stay at home mom
>goes to North Korea
>his church offers him a $10,000 used car if he steals a propaganda poster
>told $200,000 will be donated to his family if he is imprisoned
>he gets "caught" on in early January
>just sentenced today or yesterday
>he requests to do an interview in front of the North Koreans
(watch the interview or part of it if you have time)
>interview is weird as shit (even if he was advised to suck Nork cock, I think he still comes off as weird)
What do you guys gather from this?
I think he got caught on purpose, thinking he's gonna get bailed out by Dennis Rodman or Bill Clinton.
I'm still learning about him but I just hope Americans don't get suckered into showing sympathy for him. This dude would probably benefit from 15 years hard labor honestly.
Interview:

hes a CIA plant
>>56476075
He just said he is expected to pay 200,000 for his brother and sister to go to college, out of a 400,000 total. Then he said "my family is experiencing severe financial difficulty".
I can't even wrap my head around this.
I seriously hope this guy doesn't go free.
>Z Society
head literally exploding
>Yank imprisoned by based North Korea
>USA can't do a single thing
United States of Losers lol :D
>>56476140
desu it sounds like bullshit. UVA doesn't cost that much.
Also the bit about "da US government put me up to it!" Sounds like they told him to say it.
He's literally an idiot for going to a restricted area though that's what he's getting the 15 years for, not ripping down the sign.
>>56476140
The story about payment is completely made up by NK which is why it sounds so weird. He did it because he was drunk and thought it would be cool. He is just saying whatever they tell him to
>>56476075
This
Even after 15 years he wont get released because at that point he has seen too much.
>>56476217
That has to be it. The shit he's saying is fucking insane. He couldn't possibly believe this.
>>56476051
I saw pics of him. He looks like a worthless douche, who cares.
>>56476217
>alcohol
>in NK
pick one
>>56476075
TELL ME ABOUT KIM
WHERE DOES HE GET THE HAIRCUT
>family is poor
>his dad owns a small factory
>poor
>owns a small factory
>>56476278
You can easily get alcohol in NK, it's not illegal or anything
>>56476325
The snow coffee business isn't what it used to be.
>>56476325
The more I listen to the interview its really obvious the guys saying the Norks put him up to it are right. There is no way much of this is true.
I just wonder why he agreed to say it. Maybe they told him they'll treat him well if he makes America look bad.
>>56476428
Either that or they told him they'd fucking kill him if he didn't say it
>>56476428
Maybe the threats of torture (or actual torture) worked.
>>56476051
He faces being worked to death in the concentration camps. I think anyone would come off as "weird" under those conditions.
It's obviously staged so Reddit can make a campaign for him so they can become "le ebin internet heroes XD"
>>56476479
Isn't this what foreigners are usually sentenced to? Past behavior would suggest death via hard labor is extremely unlikely. I'd just take the punishment, not badmouth America, and wait for liaisons to save me.
>>56476530
> I'd just take the punishment, not badmouth America
What if they put a knife to your balls?
>>56476051
So did his family get the money?
>>56476552
They aren't gonna do it.
>>56476553
The money was a scripted lie.
I don't know why America keeps letting civilians go over there
>>56476530
> take the punishment
> might include electroshock to the balls everyday or swimming in feces.
Wtf, Taiwan. You aren't that hardcore and neither are we.
>>56476051
I think it's pretty obvious he's just a moronic college student who wanted a souvenir to put in his dorm. The whole thing about the church and cash reward are hilariously blatant examples of bad North Korean propaganda. I feel bad for him and he definitely doesn't deserve the sentence but he's definitely a few beers short of a six pack.
>>56476140
>to pay 200,000 for his brother and sister to go to college
Such is life in the States United
>>56476589
I wouldn't mind visiting someday.
Would like to see it at least once before it collapses.
>>56476051
>This dude would probably benefit from 15 years hard labor honestly.
kek, are you implying people live to see the end of these sentences?
>>56476589
They don't go there directly from America, they go via China.
>>56476644
it's just propaganda. Like this:

>>56476589
If you're not an idiot and don't do anything stupid, you'll be fine. These are however, Americans we're talking about.
Here is the best part of the vid

>>56476590
North Korea doesn't torture Americans really from what I can tell. So no it's not really scary.
>>56476677
>buying guns to kill each other
well its not completely wrong
WE WUZ VICTIMS N SHIET
>spoiled Chad acts retarded and gets fucked by based nk
>>56476677

I guess Kenneth who Bae is was tortured a bit but he seems to be the exception rather than the norm.
>>56476677
>The North Korean camera crew woke this guy who was very cold and gave him some North Korean coffee and a blanket
>>56476677
>they are describing us as Russians
At least they got the plastic cups right.
>>56476677
>their houses blow down very easily
are you sure this is supposed to be propaganda? seems very factual to me
>>56476677
it's like all of /int/ memes were put together in a video
>>56476677
Why do they seem to hate America more than every other western country?
>>56476677
>there are no birds except for these ones which will be eaten on Tuesday
>>56476933
We fucked them up in the 50s.
>>56476933
Murrikans sort of stopped them from owning the whole Korea.
>>56476933
We liberated south Korea, they are eternally butthurt that we didn't let them spread their cancer to all of korea
Come for the espionage
Stay to make Best Korea great again
>>56476677
>These telephones do not work
>Their is no one left to call

We don't
Watch the Vice documntary on North Korea
I know I know, >Vice
But its pretty good info to watch. You have to do a bunch of shady shit to get in
https://youtu.be/24R8JObNNQ4?t=6m20s
6:20 he starts talking about the only real way to get in
>>56476677
Implying its not true
Last time I was in US there were hardly any birds singing
>>56476677
>tfw live in Arizona
>tfw can't even eat snow when I'm starving for months on end
>>56476972
>>56476974
Oh right I'm retarded and forgot
>>56476677
but that video was pretty accurate desu
so when are you invading, burgers
>>56477449
This. Invade already, and get Yokota Megumi back.
>>56476278
Are you retarded? It's gommies, not muslims. You've got your enemies of freedom mixed
>>56476677
>propaganda
>>56476677
That's quite accurate t.b.h
>>56476677
whenever i go abroad and people ask me what america is like I'll show them this video and swear that it's not too far off from the real thing
>>56476051
>go to authoritarian shithole country's whose entire political system is built on hatred of the US, SK, and Japan.
>go to country notorious for arbitrary detention
>go to country notorious for excessive punishment
>go to said country when tensions are at an all-time high, during the Great Enemy's military drills
>STEAL A FUCKING BANNER
No, this guy is too stupid to breathe on his own.
He'll still have 5 years of prime left in him, provided the all-cabbage diet doesn't give him scoliosis.
>>56476051
I don't really care to be fair. Stupid shit surrounding Americans isn't news worthy anymore desu
>>56476325
owns a small factory in Detroit, maybe.
>mfw Norks giving normies what they deserve
>>56476677
>In other parts of America, often disguised as foreign countries in Europe
>Gare du nord shows up
>People live the same, terrible lives
kek
the worst part is how true it is
If he really wanted a propaganda poster, couldn't he just ask? I am sure Best Koreans would be happy to give him one, to spread the great truth about Best Korea.
