I have my videos somewhere from when I went to the DMZ. The military guys are really top notch professionals. They tell the same stories. They're werent any guards outside when I was there since it was December.

The anti-authoritarian in me shutters at the very thought of nations like North Korea. People brainwashed into worshiping their politicians. The very thought of protest or dissent squashed with prejudice.

How can people live like this?

How was the BBC able to get this footage? I can't imagine they were allowed to stroll around Pyongyang with cameras rolling.

Like anything else, a sympathizer smuggles it out and if their lucky, doesen't end up in the gulag! It's amazing that with all the technology, they still do a pretty good job keeping their countries locked down!
