I think he says things like that to bump up the number of people who visit his blog site.
Clown? Like the clown of a horror movie.
I was flipping through the radio channels and got to NPR nightly business show. They had some comments from listeners and one airhead from I believe Seattle talked about how we should not wish for North Korea to change because there are several endangered species indigenous to North Korea that might become extinct if North Korea started to develop economically.
Give a Marxist enough rope, and they’ll hang themselves, fellow travelers and all.
I guess the folks in South Korea and the United are dying of starvation now. Somehow I missed this...
When was the last time a military ship from South Korea killed everyone aboard a North Korean ship in their own coastal waters?
It would be difficult to list all the things North Korea has done, to alienate itself from civilized nations.
You have to be singularly ignorant, to not know that North Korea is a very bad player on the face of our planet.
Yeah, remember that big South Korean famine?
Time to take him to South Korea for a week and then air drop him into a work gulag in the north side of of NorK-land.
Don’t worry,Niccolo Caldararo. With the way this country is headed, you may soon be living in a North Korean type of state.
However, be forewarned.
Once all the capitalists,conservatives and Christians are gone, who will you blame when Utopia is not succeeding??
“professor of anthropology at San Francisco State University”
All you need to know. Way to go CA tax payers subsidizing this clown’s salary and perks.
Yet the South progressed economically at a rapid pace despite its dictators.
I love the part about atrocities being better documented in the South than the North (which is no doubt true). Apparently the prof doesn't understand that nothing except what the regime wants ever gets documented in the North.
The Two Koreas, 1950–2008: An Unplanned Experiment in Economic Systems, the Carbon Footprint and Human Well-Being

Yeah, 'cause, you know, we shouldn't have used them on civilians. After all, it is possible to do a precision nuclear strike on military targets with a weapon whose blast radius is measured in miles.
Anyway, I can't believe the left is still beating this dead horse of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, even after it is clear this saved hundreds of thousands of lives. Actually, yes I can.
Doesn’t NK outrank the US in quality of Health Care,too?

What a macaroon.
Here’s a little gedankenexperiment for adjunct Professor Caldararo: remove all the barriers, mines, fortifications and the like at the 38th parallel DMZ, and allow unimpeded migration across the border in either direction, and let me know which way the population would flow.
Here’s a couple of hints for Mr. Adjunct Prof - an early version of that experiment was carried out in Berlin a couple of decades ago; a crude form of it is occurring now at the border between Korea and China.
Leftist academicians (usually redundant) so believe in the dream of a socialist eden, many of them cannot bring themselves to recognize the obvious fact that all totally socialist states have been hells on earth. The record of N. Korea has been one of the most monstrous disasters in human history. But the professor refuses to admit the obvious.
Just the sort of unwaveringly addled thinking that has made San Francisco the lugubrious joke it is.
While we hear of starvation and torture in North Korea, these are far less well documented than the recent history of the South.
Um...maybe that's because the North is a totalitarian police state, which makes it difficult to "document" things.
I dearly wish this author could trade places with an average North Korean.
