What are yall's thoughts on the whole Travis King situation?
In case you don't know, Travis King is an American soldier who just recently fled to North Korea and the news here has been talking about him constantly.
Honestly I was a little worried he was some r*pist escaping justice at first because of the way it was reported/people were talking about it, but from further reading it seems like it was just a bar fight? So probably pretty cool for him if he gets to stay there, although I'm sure he'll miss his family
There's been a few threads about it here. I think it's hilarious. In my head I'm imagining Frank Dux from Bloodsport evading the US government agents. But I wish the best for the guy, and I hope the DPRK turns this into a great propaganda piece. Send postcards to the pentagon every week of Travis chilling on a Korean beach.
Not much but it's sure funny how libs who are normally bending over to worship even open monsters in uniform are suddenly finding a bad apple in the military.
Don't think he's ideologically motivated. And even if he is, the last American who tried to defect was turned away. Unfortunately I think he's going to also be turned away. But no one can really say for sure yet.
