I'm sorry, did I miss the sarcasm in this post?

Please peruse these hand drawn pictures done by a North Korean defector depicting what life is like at one of their concentration camp--at your leisure, of course:

To add to that, North Koreans have this policy called "third generation punishment". If a person does something that's frowned upon, like complaining about food rations, he/she gets executed with the knowledge that three generations of his/her family will be tortured to death at the camps. Many times the family gets sent without knowing the original family members' crime, just that they are now prisoners. If someone is born there it is a lifetime of slavery.

"I believe North Koreans have every right to live as they want, no matter how strange/hilarious/unmeaning/suppressed their lifestyle may seem to us."

Do you wish to retract that statement now?

India has a policy called AFSPA, MCOCA, and POTA, that basically allow armed forces, not civil forces, to arrest, shoot, or kill any person without any trial, proof.

Prevalent in at least two states: J&K and Nagaland.

Turnout in last elections was near the national average. Rest is upto you to adjudge.

I'm not quite sure how that answers DLays points. Care to elaborate?

He/she was pointing out that people the children, and childrens children of people who are deemed enemies of the state are not free to live how they want.
