I keep reading and rereading everything about the South Korean news. One woman charged it as a business expense for her travel. Absolutely wonderful. I wonder if I would be a badass like that. And if 47 would back off like theirs did? sigh. but no no - absolutely immersed in the story!

I think you have to mean it, and the Koreans meant it. I've never been convinced that Americans are that willing to throw down for their democracy. It seems to be more of an inconvenience than anything else to them.

Half of Americans don’t even want a democracy if it means sharing it with women and non-whites.

South Koreans are have lived under a dictator in living memory. I am sure that makes a difference. I expect it makes a difference.

(Apparently Assad may have fled Syria).

As you know buy now. E's in Russia and Trump is SHOCKED Putin didn't defend Assad.

The woman who grabbed the end of a soldier's gun and shouted "aren't you ashamed?" as he backed off is my hero.
