Kim Jong Crazy

I think North Korea's dictator is a hypocrite. I wish the North Korean's could have voted against Kim Jong IL instead of just getting stuck with him. One of the reasons I dislike Kim Jong IL is because treats his people unjustly.

Kim Jong IL found out about a man sitting on newspapers with his face on the front cover and sent him to jail but it was like a labor camp.The guy was sentenced to  jail for 12 years and is still there now.  

My opinion on this is that the man was treated unfairly and Kim Jong il is too prideful just like Deadulas in a myth called Wings. This is one of the reasons I dislike Kim Jong IL. I think Kim Jong IL should care more about his people and not be so self consumed that the people of North Korea suffer. I am so glad I do not live there or have to go though suffering.

  Questions to think about?

• Does Kim Jong Il  have the right to be doing this to his people?
• If you lived in North Korea would you try to do anything about the actions of Kim Jong IL? If you did what would you do?
• Do you think what Kim Jong IL is doing is wrong or right? Why?

Let's Try to HELP?

SMILE... or else!

Have you ever flipped out your cell phone in the mall and began to chat really loudly with your buddy? Have people ever stared at you, slightly annoyed, and you just ignored them? The Japanese are taking a stand against these rude, improper behaviors!

Japan has recently drafted men ages 60 and older as the "Manner Police". We question: Is it really worth the money people are paying in taxes? Shouldn't people spend their tax dollars on something more effective and worthwhile? And, more importantly, should the Japanese citizens receive punishment for "impolite behavior" in public?

Don't like the idea? Feel like rioting? Well, good luck! The "Manner Police" are also well equipped against rioters -- they each have their own personal bodyguards! Older citizens having younger guards protecting them. That's an interesting thought...

What do you think? Is punishing people for bad conduct a good idea, or is it totally bogus?

Nuclear North Korea

Countries are mad at North Korea once again.  In response to recent events in which North Korea built a working nuclear reactor, the countries of the United States, United Kingdom and China, among others, ordered North Korea to shut down their nuclear facilities.

These countries agreed to give North Korea one million tons of heavy feul and twenty-five million dollars to shut down the nuclear reactor.  However, it almost seems like these countries are bullying North Korea.

So the point we are debating is why should North Korea be forced to give up their nuclear power?  How does anybody decide if a country is responsible or not, and who decides if a country should have nuclear power?

Here's what we say:
