Dennis Rodman is going to get the credit for this. Is he already over there?

He’s been in a coma for more than a year?

This changes the calculus a wee bit.

Moral of the story: Don’t visit North Korea or get too near the border.

Warmbier had been in a coma for more than a year. According to

the Washington Post, Warmbier's parents were told their son

had became sick with botulism -- a rare poisoning caused by

toxins -- soon after his trial, and had been given a sleeping

pill, from which he never woke up from.

ESPECIALLY when the POTUS is a Democrat who caters to our enemies more than our friends. I hope this man lives and recovers completely.

That can’t be a bodyguard. Looks like he is trying to pick his pocket ;-) LOL

That sounds like something that happens all the time, all over the world </sarcasm>

When the x-rays show the fractured skull, what happens to the Norks?

There are other Americans in Prison in NK .... I wonder if there will be anything done about them? I suspect they all are suffering from Kim Jong Induced Coma?

More likely they tortured him a little too long.

Sounds like N. Korea should be punished for violating this kid’s rights. Waiting for libs to come to his defense.

I wonder if it’s really a coma. Are they trying to tell us they have been feeding and hydrating this young man with a feeding tube for more than a year? I just saw a photo of them taking him off the plane. Two men were carrying him. He didn’t look thin. I wonder if he, mentally, just shut down. But still, how has he been fed for over a year?

NK was feeding this man via a tube for a year when they don’t feed their own people?
