Otto Weimbeir died today..

He was the young American college student who was arrested while on a guided tour for tampering with a propaganda sign. He was sentenced to 15 years hard labor. Almost immediately after his conviction he was given some medical treatment, which is not clear (in North Korea). Since then he has been in a coma (for over 1 year), unbeknownst to his family & loved ones. He was finally sent home a few days ago (with great effort from the Trump administration), he was still in a coma. He died today with his family by his side. This boy was robbed of his life, for what would be considered misdemeanor vandalism in our country. I am furious with North Korea!

I am proud and honored to be an American!

It's very tragic. Will this hopefully keep other Americans from traveling over there ?

@bijouxbroussard: Can't fix stupid. The worst part is that tourism helps to prop up the DPRK regime. People that visit are contributing to their twisted system. It's stupid and selfish.
