North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has ordered pet dogs to be confiscated in the country’s capital, saying the pooches represent Western “decadence’’ — but their owners fear Fido is really headed for someone’s dinner table.

Kim issued the directive in July to round up the pets, claiming they were part of “a ‘tainted’ trend by bourgeouis ideology,’’ a source told the English edition of Chosun Ilbo, a South Korean newspaper.

In more ways than one.

If this was actually Chinese, the statement irony would’ve been more pointed.

Dog comms. Sick lies using beloved pets to destroy anything Trump touched. And I guess Freepers are going to compete for the best pun.

I have cats, dogs, horses, and a mule. Oddly enough I have hardware and ammo. You want any of those you get the metal first. Some of that is very fast. Give up any of your rights, you give up freedom. The norks gave all up many years ago.

Maybe he does like dogs. The question is, fried or roasted?

Peta has always killed far more animals than it has ever saved.

They’re in the business of PETA - not in the business of saving animal life.

I saw PR and the R, hmm, 30, 35 years ago perhaps, fun, did their hits, lots of Vegas-style stage patter, covered some Hendrix (sort of).

I was told that Communism created classless societies. Was I misinformed? /s

You know your country is a shithole when they confiscate pet dogs in the capital city for food.
