It seems that everytime a foreigner does "bad" in korea...koreans are quick to play "monkey see, monkey do" and jump on the band wagon....
I have read about koreans doing crimes in other countries and I do read/see those non koreans bitching, moaning, crying, whinning, etc. like koreans....
Link below....four killed, run off to Mexico and get caught....sad story...

Dude on the right looks like the Asian version of Patrick Swayze.

Even better, child molester gets 1,330 years in prison. I love the courts in America. As if he is going to live to see the day he gets out.

I think the OP is suggesting that if this had happened in Korea and the perpetrators had been foreign there would have been an uproar. Evidently, the reaction in the US has been mild in comparison. I am not sure whether the guys in the article are US citizens or Korean nationals though.

If that was Poland, I can only imagine the backlash against the Koreans there.

Well......Koreans consider themselves to be highly civilized and that entitles them not only to criticize others for their wrongdoings, but that they are able to do anything they want in other countries and think they are above the law.....it was the mentality that is passed on to them by the Japanese and the American occupation......that is what many will say, "Well......We have been invaded and occupied by many countries, even until now........"

Good Examples of this:

~ Ethnic Korean muslim converts that fought against Americans and their allies and NATO in Afghanistan and were involved in the Baslan siege that killed scores of children....

~ V-Tech.....enough said on that......

One thing that I don't understand or at least fail to comprehend is that during "Crimes of Passions", Koreans don't just kill their spouse they also tend to kill off the children as well........is it a way of trying to start over with a clean slate or something???

No, it's because their kids have been doing poorly in their English tests...

Could be worse; he could have been sentenced to life without parole instead. Smile

Say no more!

You have just shown that you are not capable of rational objective thought.
