Welp, North Koreans are completely cut off now.

Mobile phone users to be punished as "war criminals" in North Korea (http://www.techspot.com/news/47244-mobile-phone-users-to-be-punished-as-war-criminals-in-north-korea.html)


According to the country's government, North Koreans caught using a mobile phone will be deemed as war criminals and punished accordingly, The Telegraph reports. The same punishment also extends to those attempting to flee the country's borders, an offense that historically has landed one-time offenders in labor camps and repeated offenders a death sentence.

We don't have a nation filled with gun fanatics, that's why.

[Warsaw]

Sounds like a personal problem. :snafubar:

Kim Jong-Il never had a huge problem with people using mobile phones. Now that he's dead, looks like his son is moving shit in the opposite direction of what happened in Homefront. Is that good or bad? I'm going to say bad either way.

[TVTyrant]

Guns aren't the only defense.
Not by a long shot.

Yeah, you can block the government's guns with your face. That'll teach em!

When Kim Jong died I said it would lead to a horrible shit cluster.

But then again so did anyone else who isn't an idiot.

[Warsaw]

Jeez, I wasn't being serious. Like, goddamn. You are allowed to have shotguns and bolt actions in the UK, for the record, it's just that there isn't much interest and they are a bit harder to acquire. Basically, like New York.



Aa for Korea: invade invade invade! :v:

[=sw=warlord]

Yeah, you can block the government's guns with your face. That'll teach em!
I hear there are much better tools that are far easier to acquire and are great for breaking through security. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Dome_raid)

[TVTyrant]

Too bad they were all caught <.< >.> Although that is a great use of standard work tools. Thats pretty awesome.

I was trying to be funny, but I guess we have become very polarized about such things. Sorry WarLord, I wasn't trying to troll you or anything. My original comment was a joke, and I was trying to have fun with you and the democracy thing. Didn't mean to start a two page shit fest.

[Cortexian]

Guns are tools, think about that for a second and then you'll realize just how stupid gun-control actually is. Then there's the whole "criminals-gen-guns-anyway" argument that shows that gun-control only limits law-abiding citizens.

But that's all discussion for another thread.

Isn't the 100 days of morning for our great leader now over? I thought they just weren't allowed to use phones during that period. Also, two words for you North Korea: Satellite Phones.

[n00b1n8R]

You're right, it's easy to import Satellite Phones in the DPRK.
Or have a reliable power supply to charge them :downsgun:

At any rate, I don't see how anybody could be surprised by anything these ass-backwards brainwashed insular gooks could ever do.

[TVTyrant]

At any rate, I don't see how anybody could be surprised by anything these ass-backwards brainwashed insular gooks could ever do.
Thank you.

[=sw=warlord]

Considering most NK nationals earn what could be tallied to $1 a month who actually thinks that banning mobile phones would make any difference?
Most people there can't even afford to live let alone buy a phone and have the electricity to keep them charged.

How is this country still 'afloat'? IIRC, doesn't China...not like them? They can't seriously be self-sustaining...

communism owns, people just assume illegitimate or totalitarian governments are communist because they gained power through socialist revolution. maybe if people would quit being scaredy-babies and learn what it really is, there would be less of that going around and more of the real thing.


We don't have a nation filled with gun fanatics, that's why.
oh shut the fuck up already. we get it; you don't like guns so you think they should be banned, and you assume anyone who does is insane, because you are a bigoted cunt. good for you. be an ignorant piece of shit in your own time but don't you fucking dare come into threads and then rub your misguided smugness in everyone else's face every time you see an opportunity. considering how condescending you are towards people with an interest in shooting, i don't understand how you expect to be treated any differently, but you sure won't be by me. i don't come into threads and loudly state i think that people who dislike shooting are mentally unsound and should be ostracised to try and fuck with their way of life, so there's no excuse for you or any other piece of shit loudmothed bigot to do it either. hate guns all you fucking want, just keep it to yourself until someone directly fucking asks you.

while i'm here though, and since i said i would give you the same back; do you also have an irrational hatred of an ethnic group because of dumb stereotypes too? because i mean, it's pretty clear you're inclined to blindly generalising and insulting people just because they don't agree with you. it's not much of a stretch, is it?

europeans and americans are as bad as each fucking other. shut the fuck up about your dumb smug fucking shit. nobody fucking cares who is better or who is crazy and who is sane, you all act like fucking spoiled brats and it is fucking repulsive.

e/ this goes for both sides of the argument. don't shitstir each other about guns or lack thereof unless it's in a thread created specifically for it. i am sick of having to read this childish bullshit.

[=sw=warlord]

Ross sperges out again.


Hey, yeah you, Guess what?
Fanatic means to be a fan of something.
I never said extremist so get that massive cock out your ass.
Whilst you're doing that get the crayon out your nose I swear the lead in it is rotting your brain.

I'm actually a fairly tolerant guy, you just seem to freak out over the slightest detail that even hints a view not aligning to yours.
Talk about being a condescending cunt, go back to 4chan or what ever shit hole you crawled out from.

[rossmum]

oh, because you sure don't have a history of bringing up how gun owners are all evil/insane/murderers at every opportunity. wait; was it you who told me to 'go die' for liking guns a while back, or was that one of the other resident bigots around here?

by the way i like the nose comment, looks like you are a bit of a racist too, how about that

e/ and a homphobe too i guess

neat.

[Cortexian]

Let's get this straight, You're telling me that I'm racist, a homophobe and told you to go die?
L oh Fucking El.
I despise racists, I don't judge people by their skin tone nor their sexuality and I most certainly did not tell you to go die.
This is hilarious, you're raging at the wrong person here.
Keep going ross you're making my morning hilarious.
I may have said that I dislike firearms in public places and by public places I mean on the street and that's for good reason.
If only you knew how demented some of the population here is, the last thing I would want is a bunch of chavs walking about with Glocks, you can't even trust them with spanners without worrying whether they're about to take all the wheels off your car and leave it on bricks so why the fuck would I want them walking about with guns?

How about a suggestion, Learn something about before making wild accusations which result in you looking like the biggest bigot in the forum who cannot tolerate even the slightest deviance in your own narrow view of the world.

[rossmum]

I seem to have associated you with someone else's posting, for some reason. I am tired and have not really been here for a while, which probably didn't help. For all I know you may have said some pretty fucked up shit while I wasn't paying attention but at the moment it looks like I mistook you for someone else and so it is my bad. Apologies for gettin' INTERNET MAD but seriously the whole guns/no guns thing never, ever ends well, even when it's done in jest, so please avoid it anyway.

I have lived in the UK. There are a lot of idiot dropkick kids with no aim in life outside of fucking shit up and showing off to their mates. It's the same here, the US, Canada, and anywhere else you will find human beings. There are dumb people in the world. Some of them will try and get guns legally, but if I were you I would be more worried about them getting them through the black market since "guns on the street" generally are not legally registered, have been obtained through crooked cops, or are manufactured in crude workshops. We've been over this a million times though and if you want to discuss that point further then hit me up via profile messages.

Again, sorry. This stuff does need to stop coming up in threads though because every time it does there is a shitfight or ten.

Do you understand what it is? I'm not asking rhetorically. I have to ask because so many armchair socialists/communists actually have no idea. Are you aware there is no state in actual communism? "Communist government" is a contradiction in terms. There has never been one; there have only been socialist governments run by self-described communist parties. Actual communism is completely impossible for any society larger than, say, a hippy commune, because coercion would be required.

Please try to keep your usual nastiness out of your reply.

My comment has spurned on far too much silliness. It was a joke!!!!!

Also Communism is eh. Its about the same as capitalism. Some people find a way to work the system, people on top always trod upon the normals etc. Look at the Soviet Union. So great!!!

Not that we are doing any better with our shit economy and lack of social structure to support the poor. Just saying both systems are pretty awful in application.

[nuttyyayap]

Communism is great.
It would be nice if someone actually tried it.
Kinda like democracy.

Please point to me where I said you associated them. Perhaps you should try to read my post a little better -- namely the "I'm not asking rhetorically" portion. I was genuinely asking if you thoroughly understood those things, for the simple reason that many people do not. Once again, I wasn't asking rhetorically.

It's a thread about North Korea, and we're talking about socialism/communism. Are we really that far offtrack?

[rossmum]

no, i think he's making the point that this is turning into a semantics argument and semantics are fucking stupid to argue over, so i'm going to stop there. and yes i do. both own when done right, and most people need to learn there is a pretty major difference.
