North Korea - Why???

[Stookie]

To me a police state is when you have to notify authorities everywhere you go, constantly go through road and pedestrian check points and get searched, have random searches of your home, etc. It's weird that people are always trying to tell me that's the country I live in, because I've NEVER experienced any of that stuff.

I went on a cross-country road trip with a friend and the whole time we were talking about Alex Jones (I have a lot of it documented) and we were trying to find examples of the NWO and police state he was talking about. (That wasn't the main point of the trip - freedom was). In 30+ states we didn't find anything that resembled it, and weren't hassled or pulled over for being out of state, or for anything. I've been to other countries as well, and it's a beautiful world to experience. You can spend your time complaining about the world and who is in control, or you can be in control and go do everything you want to do. No one is stopping you. Except maybe your mom or wife or something.

So, to anyone thinking they are a slave, go out into the world and travel and see things with your own eyes, then make your decision. From what I can gather, what you see on the internet and youtube is as much propaganda as the national news. If you haven't done much traveling (outside of family vacation), DO IT NOW, WHILE YOU ARE YOUNG.

Yea. From what i see on youtube, it looks like there is a police state everywhere. But i know you are right.

Remember, youtube is a form of media...
And if we were to believe everything the media wrote/spoke about, we would have to believe that every single person will be murdered or something worse before I'm done typing this.

I do have to remind myself about that a few times.

Regarding the comments about a police state, I have been harassed MANY times, just for walking at night. Right here in the United States of America. Police officers once followed me and a friend around, just for walking. They asked is what we were doing. We told them we were going to get something to eat. And we did, at a gas station, and continued on our way. Later, another cop came around and said angrily that we told another officer that we were going to get something to eat. We replied that we did, and that we were continuing our walk. I'm sorry, but if this is "having it good," I say it's time for a revolution.

I have been stopped and searched three times last year while walking to a shop at night
I live in the UK

the thing is if you was king and they were your town guard would you give them the power to search people?
i think i would

:NoY:

V, I haven't seen you around lately, but if you do come back and see this, you say you believe in reincarnation and I neither agree nor disagree with you on that.  But you should know that all existence is as it should be in a sense.  Not necessarily in a deterministic or fatalist kind of way.  But there are reasons for the ways we come into this life.  Perhaps North Korea provides the situation that some souls need to learn their lessons.  Perhaps no where else in this universe could they learn that specific lesson.

I believe that. Since I've posted this, I've come to realize what many of you already know about what is going on. I had no idea the extent to which the government of the USA is corrupt and criminal. I became awakened spiritually over a year ago. I became awakened to reality a few weeks ago. All I can say is holy sh*t, the world is f*cked up! What can I say, I was unaware that I was unaware. Not anymore.

Don't you just love it when people say this  

Yea - like those folks in Vietnam and Gaza burned alive for a reason. It was their lesson to learn, right? Everything has occured the way it was supposed to.

You are desecrating all who have suffered and who are suffering to this day in very harsh conditions in this dimension, outstanding your scale in every way, some of who under slave-like conditions provide for you the enormous physical, culinary and entertainment luxury you are enjoying today.
But in truth you are standing on thin wire.
I'm pretty sure if you woke up in a North Korean labour camp tomorrow you would quite reconsider what you have just stated.

The only ones gaining from the kind of suffering that exists on Earth are those ill spirited who collect the energy that is squeezed from the subjects thru their mental and physical pain like you would squeeze a wet sponge.



kind regards,

I agree with Paul, there is no excuse for the oppressive behaviour of any world governments, if reincarnation teaches us lessons like this, then its clear the slavery extends beyond the physical plane (which i dont believe, hence there is no excuse for the poor treatment of fellow humans). Views like that are cop outs and give the attitude that we dont need to improve things on earth because everything is as its supposed to be. That is nothing but counter-evolutionary attitudes.

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. If I were a king, chances are that I would be corrupt, and I would probably give my guards the power to search people. My problem with the state of nations today is that I feel they are too big. I mean, it's one thing to band together and help each other out, but one person with all that power? Look at the size of China. China has a head body (e.g. emperor, president, prime minister, or something else) in charge of all that land mass and all the people in it (which accounts for a very large percentage of the world human population!). But if there were more countries in the world, there might be more wars- then again, there might not. But either way, there would be more voices heard, armies would be smaller, and maybe the economy wouldn't be so messed up. Actually, I like the idea of having smaller countries.

Anyway, there is no reason for North Korea to exist. There is also no good reason why certain Muslims exist who think it's their religious duty to convert or kill off anyone who isn't a Muslim. Same goes for certain sects of Christianity and Judaism, African war lords, Mexican drug cartels, pirates, CIA mind control experiments on the unsuspecting populace, chemtrails, oil companies who threaten inventors that come up with things that would put them out of business, etc. All of those exist because we let them. Because we don't want to give up our comfort. We tend to insulate ourselves from the rest of the world when surrounded by luxury.

Rest assured that as long as there are groups of people who are "different" from one another... there will ALWAYS be this kind of violence.

Have any of you ever read "Man's Search For Meaning" by Viktor Frankl?

Meaning can be found anywhere.

Frank, you say? 

[cpt. picard]

The question is, what is the meaning of something having meaning?
