Pro tip:

Read entire article.

Then post outrage.

But first read the article

I read the article.  The point stands.  Instead of making sure a malcontent left the country, the US now has a foreign policy issue, which was entirely foreseeable and avoidable by his chain of command.  And a undeserved black mark on the records of the US soldiers on duty in the JSA---so the Korea hands have been saying---when this guy decided to run.

Now, beyond merely being embarrassing, this affair will likely cost the American taxpayer still more money, as a bribe to Un to get his worthless ass repatriated.  

Thank you for your earnest commentary.

The following statement comes to mind:

‘Life is hard. It’s harder if you’re stupid.’

I'm gonna guess this administration pushes extra hard for his release and if they get it, punishment will be minimal.

According to NBC News, the soldier who darted across the Demilitarized Zone on Tuesday could have crossed the border as a Tik Tok stunt.

No, a witness made a remark that it looked like someone making a TikTok video. That’s all.

American soldier Travis King had shown signs of possibly defecting from the Army nearly a year before he fled into North Korean territory, telling military officials while serving in South Korea that he would not "return to post or America."

I am pretty sure the NKs will prove him wrong, they will be returning his body to America once they are done with him.

I despise communism and think it is the deadliest disease to hit the world.  That guy was dealt a horrible hand his whole life. I can’t say I blame him for trying something, anything different

FAFO, Our society has more compassion than it needs, If someone had squared that kid away sooner, he wouldn't be getting the doctorate in FAFO.  I get it.  I'm probably more guilty of it than most here. There's a point we all need to realize you aren't doing anyone favors by being soft. And I'm 100% the worst hypocrite that way.

What a dumbass. If he ever gets traded back, I'm sure they'll turn him into a hero and get a book and movie deal out of it.
