If you’re an unhappy, anti-American malcontent who’s not particularly thankful for anything this year, perhaps you’d like to change places with a North Korean? They’re dying to escape. (Although, thank God, this KPA soldier lived.)
 

SEOUL, South Korea — A North Korean soldier races for the border in a jeep and then on foot before his former comrades shoot him at least five times as he limps into South Korea, where he collapses and is dragged to safety by southern soldiers in a dramatic video released by the US-led UN command Wednesday.
 
The defection, subsequent surgeries and slow recovery of the soldier have riveted South Korea, but it will be a huge embarrassment for the North, which claims all defections are the result of rival Seoul kidnapping or enticing North Koreans to defect. Pyongyang has said nothing about the defection so far.
 
North Korea’s actions during the defector’s Nov. 13 escape at Panmunjom violated the armistice agreement ending the Korean War because North Korean soldiers fired across and physically crossed the border in pursuit of the soldier, Col. Chad G. Carroll, a spokesman for the UN command, told reporters in a live TV briefing.

 
So, if you’re angry, disgruntled or “triggered” in America, feel free to leave. We promise not to shoot you in the back on the way out. Otherwise, be grateful for the land of the free and the home of the brave. Thank God you still live in the freest, most tolerant nation of the planet – and not a hellhole like North Korea.
