    Kim Jong Un tells North Korea arms factories to boost capacity

    Because everybody knows that boost capacity of arms factories is way better than boost capacity of food factories.

      Yeah, like, the US should stop producing so many guns and do something about school shootings and start feeding their poor and homeless. I’ve read about Atlanta I think and there are giant camps of homeless people living in tents. Utterly disgusting.

    What’s with the fake photo of him firing that thing? Is everything in North Korea staged? 😂

      It looks weird, but I think it’s real. A fake probably wouldn’t include the smoke, and you can see he’s got earplugs in. I doubt he would have bothered if he wasn’t actually firing it.

      Also he’s handling it properly in the other pictures, so it seems like he’s actually used AKs before. Well, except for the part where he has his finger on the trigger.

        I wasn’t sure how to call it, hence the “quotation mark”.

        Fuck me for not knowing, right?

      A North Korean soldier runs towards battle. The hunger pains were dampened by the daily meth ration, but that wore off an hour ago, and he is hungry. No matter, he needs to fight. He opens his pack and struggles with the solid oak ornate bipod the Great Leader ordered deployed with the troops. As he lifts it free, he passes out. His last thoughts were how the food rations were thrown out to make room for this insane bipod
