North Korean authorities are punishing mourners who failed to exhibit sincere sadness and despair after the death of Kim Jong Il on Dec. 17, the Daily NK reported Wednesday.
The online North Korean newspaper, which is published by opponents of the governing regime, said a source in North Hamkyung Province revealed the information. The source told the paper “authorities are handing down at least six months in a labor-training camp to anybody who didn’t participate in the organized gatherings during the mourning period, or who did participate but didn’t cry and didn’t seem genuine,” according to the Daily NK.

Well, that explains all the creepy wailing and gnashing of teeth then.
Coming soon from the Obama Administration. Citizens not seen to be demonstrating true adoration of "The One" will spend 6 months in a re-education camp that was built by WalMart.
Citizens not seen to be demonstrating true adoration of "The One"...
Would showing my adoration be something like what the soldiers were showing the dead Taliban?
Or offering "half a peace sign", rinardman.

JorgXMcKie, WalMart would never get the contract because they were founded by a Conservative, and Lefties hate WM. The contract would be given to either Costco or Whole Foods. Or maybe Target since Michelle shopped there (at least once).
