Of Course the North Koreans are brutal a$$h)les. But guess who would not now be in a coma after spending a year in one of North Korea's hellhole prisons, if he had not been so stupid as to go to North Korea and steal a poster? Otto Warmbier, that's who.

YOUR LIFE COULD BE AT STAKE.

So you're pretty stunned when Otto tells you he's going to ignore all that and steal a political banner to bring back to his hometown church.

Pretty sure "You're an idiot" are the next words coming out of your mouth..
