A jet ski rider who has been detained since he washed up on South Korea’s coast is believed to be a Chinese dissident who feared for his safety and fled by crossing hundreds of miles of sea, trailing barrels of fuel behind him.
The coast guard in the western South Korean port city of Incheon said in a statement Sunday that a Chinese man in his 30s tried to illegally enter the country Aug. 16 by riding a jet ski from the Shandong area of China, an eastern province around 200 miles away across the Yellow Sea.
Like the US?
Are there many people from the US seeking asylum in other countries or migrating at high numbers?
Snowden
Less in fear for his life, and more in fear of jail time. Which he shouldn’t have had to fear, don’t get me wrong. But there’s still a big difference in scale between fleeing jail and fleeing death.
I too would flee in either case. I think being robbed of your freedoms and death are pretty similar. Though I agree with jcit.
For violating the espionage act? The Rosenbergs were executed for that. US psyops truly out in force.
There was Snowden , alghtough other than that there wasnt that many cases.
There will be soon. The entire west is quickly becoming uninhabitable.
I might be off base, but your comment has the feel of a “gotcha!”. Yeah, America certainly qualifies.
Edit: Perhaps work pointing out that I’m not the first person you replied to.
