1 - Dont spit on the ground, DNA is personal, not for public consumption.

2 - Dont blow nose in public, same as 1.

3 - If you fart make sure you immediately spray freshner to kill the smell of hamburger and fries or you could cause allergic reaction in bystanders.

4 - You can chew tobacco, you can take snuff into nose but you must not smoke or inhale tobacco unless approved by medical doctor and only as prescription.

5 - If you get the service of a prostitute you are not allowed to enjoy her service in any other position than missionary position.

6 - Please, please, very important...if you walk a dog or any pet, the droppings must be picked and kept in your pocket or bag till you return home to flush it down toilet. If you cant bear keeping droppings on you are best advised no to walk bingo.

You Might Have Access To Newspapers And Television



Some American detainees may have access to newspapers and television during their sentence. However, they are not able to read or view the news from their home country; instead, they are only able to access North Korean channels that have a somewhat skewed view of the news.



You Could Be Visited By Swedish Officials


American detainees are not completely cut off from the outside world during their imprisonment. They could receive occasional visits from Swedish officials on behalf of the United States government. Sweden has diplomatic relations with North Korea, so they are able to act on behalf of the US. However, this doesn’t mean North Korea won't attempt to interfere with these interactions. US student Otto Warmbier, for instance, was denied access to Swedish consular officials for over a year by the North Korean government.



You Might Only Be Released Because An Important American Figure Has Visited


Most American prisoners are political currency as far as North Korea is concerned. They can be used as leverage by the government to get US politicians to pay a visit to the country. When American citizens are finally released, it's often because an important political figure has made the journey to North Korea to intercede on their behalf. Euna Lee and Laura Ling were released in 2009 because Bill Clinton traveled over to ensure that they were let go. Aijalon Gomes was released in 2010 after a visit from Jimmy Carter, and Kenneth Bae was finally granted freedom in 2014 as a result of Director of National Intelligence James Clapper visiting North Korean soil.

You Might Get Better Food Than North Korean Prisoners


US citizens detained in North Korea are reportedly fed three times a day, which is more than can be said of North Korean prisoners. The quality of the food varies; Jeffrey Fowle was fed rice, broth, and kimchi, while Euna Lee's sister told CNN that Lee was looking forward to finally being able to eat fresh fruit after her imprisonment. Lee's meals had consisted of rice that occasionally contained rocks. Stories from North Korean prisoners, however, say they're fed one meal a day of rotten corn.

Journalist Euna Lee detailed her experiences of imprisonment in North Korea in her book The World is Bigger Now. In it, she recalls being extensively interrogated by the guards charged with monitoring her. According to Lee, she was interrogated for eight hours a day, Monday through Saturday. The guards would often get angry at her for not being forthcoming: "During the interrogation, they wanted to know every detail and I got in trouble for [with]holding information."

Prisoners in North Korea aren't just subject to physical harm, they're often on the receiving end of psychological torture. Guards verbally abuse prisoners, telling them their family will have forgotten all about them, that they'll never see their children again, and that they'll be old and frail by the time they get out.


You Could Be Interrogated For Eight Hours A Day

Foreign AffairsRe: Here's What It's Really Like To Be A U.S. Prisoner In North Korea by sarcasticwhyte(op): 4:11pm On Sep 25, 2017
Most American prisoners are reportedly treated differently than North Korean prisoners, and some may never step foot in one of the labor camps. An Ohio man named Jeffrey Fowle was arrested in 2014, but was never actually convicted, sentenced, or sent to the work camps. He was confined to a hotel room that was locked and guarded at all times. Fowle was later moved to a guesthouse where he was rarely allowed to leave the bedroom, and could only walk outside the house while accompanied by a guard.

Journalist Euna Lee had a similar experience after she was arrested and charged with illegally entering North Korea in 2009. She was released after six months, but for the duration of her sentence she was held captive in a guesthouse near Pyongyang.



You Could Be Mentally And Physically Tortured

Foreign AffairsRe: Here's What It's Really Like To Be A U.S. Prisoner In North Korea by sarcasticwhyte(op): 4:09pm On Sep 25, 2017
Some American prisoners are transferred to work camps. Kenneth Bae was forced into such a camp, and told CNN about his grueling experience. After being convicted for unclear "hostile acts" in 2012, he was sentenced to 15 years of labor and was made to work outside for hours on end: "I worked from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. at night, working on the field, carrying rock, shoveling coal."

A Canadian pastor sentenced to labor, Reverend Hyeon Soo Lim, was released from North Korea in 2017. He described his experiences digging holes in an orchard for eight hours a day, six days a week, adding, "I wasn't originally a laborer, so the labor was hard at first, but now I've gotten used to it."


You Might Not Even Make It To The Work Camps

In July 2016, Kim Jong Un was added to the sanctions list for human rights abuses and censorship by Washington, DC. North Korea retaliated by saying they would treat all US detainees under "wartime law." KCNA (Korean Central News Agency for the Democratic People's Republic of Korea) stated, "The Republic will handle all matters arising between us and the United States from now on under our wartime laws, and the matters of Americans detained are no exception to this."

You Might Be Forced To Do Strenuous Physical Labor

Your Case Would Be Handled Under "Wartime Law"

Foreign AffairsRe: Here's What It's Really Like To Be A U.S. Prisoner In North Korea by sarcasticwhyte(op): 4:03pm On Sep 25, 2017
It's chillingly easy to get arrested in North Korea if you're a US citizen. You could be detained for offenses including bringing pornography into North Korea, doing anything that might be considered religious or leaving behind any religious items, and having any "unauthorized" interactions with the locals. You're also forbidden from showing disrespect to any North Korean rulers, living or dead, or tampering with any political posters. You can't take any unauthorized photos or shop at any stores that aren't pre-approved by the organized tour.

Not only that, but you could be arrested for committing these crimes "knowingly or unknowingly." You might be completely unaware you've done something the North Korean authorities define as breaking the law before you're imprisoned.

Despite the propaganda machine's best efforts, horrifying details about what it's like to be imprisoned in North Korea have come to light. And it's not only North Koreans attempting to flee the oppressive Kim regime and its scary military that are imprisoned; American and Canadian tourists have been detained while visiting the country and sentenced to years of hard labor, too. Accounts of life within the confines of these appalling camps have been shared by former prisoners and prison guards alike, but those terrifying anecdotes come from those lucky enough to have made it out.

One of the most famous US citizens held in North Korea was Otto Warmbier. In March 2016, the 21-year-old student was sentenced to 15 years in prison for attempting to steal a propaganda sign. The economics major was visiting North Korea as part of a tour group in January 2016, and was convicted and sentenced to his punishment in just one hour. After about a year-and-a-half of imprisonment, Warmbier was released to his family in 2017. He had apparently been in a coma for over a year, and he died days later.

It appears an American tourist could be convicted on a whim, regardless of their occupation or opinion on the Kim regime. Tragically, Warmbier was just one of the many Americans who disappeared in North Korea.

U talk like a goddàmn illiterate. Diz is d part of d reasons y some people don't want 2 serve ur god.


A natural disaster dat took properties and lives, yet here u re saying complete trash.

Ur stupidity is deeply profound, it amazes me how people like can confidently say useless trash.



Let's look at Nigeria -- our wonderful country. Half of us Christians, the other half Muslim. I guess his wrath is not upon us then. You can't have 24/7 light, water supply -- useless, health care -- non existent, education - shithole and gross human right abuse. And you have the guts to say God's wrath is upon the US.


Then god is useless then, ur god is useless. I would have his useless wrath fall on Nigeria and see it prosper if that is what it takes to have a developed country.
