Im sorry, but I have a REALLY hard time feeling any sympathy for these people. As American citizens, they are absolutely entitled to our government doing all that it can to negotiate their release and I do hope for their safe return, but, quite frankly, their detainment is entirely their own fault. It is extremely well known how risky travelling to North Korea is and their countrys rules and restrictions are very clearly published by both their government and our State Department. These arrests are the result of willing ignorance and arrogance on the part of the detainees and while I feel for their families and friends, I feel nothing but frustration towards them. Echoing a post I made the last time North Korea detained an American tourist: STOP GOING TO NORTH KOREA, PEOPLE!!! Its not freakin Disneyland, its a despotic dictatorship that tortures, starves and murders their own people and have made absolutely no secret of the fact that they despise Americans.
