North Korea Reportedly Punishing Insincere Mourners!

North Korean authorities are punishing mourners who failed to exhibit sincere sadness and despair after the death of Kim Jong Il on Dec. 17, the Daily NK reported Wednesday.
The online North Korean newspaper, which is published by opponents of the governing regime, said a source in North Hamkyung Province revealed the information. The source told the paper “authorities are handing down at least six months in a labor-training camp to anybody who didn’t participate in the organized gatherings during the mourning period, or who did participate but didn’t cry and didn’t seem genuine,†according to the Daily NK.
“The party conducted surveys to see who displayed the most grief, and made this an important criterion in assessing party members’ loyalty,†Yop wrote. “Patients who remained in hospitals and people who drank and made merry even after hearing news of their leader’s death were all singled out for punishment.â€
The Daily NK said its source also reported that North Koreans who were accused of being critical of the country’s dynastic system were being sent to re-education camps or banished with their families to remote areas.
North Korea today said that Kim Jong Il’s body will be embalmed and enshrined in the palace that houses his father’s remains. The country also said it plans to build a new Kim Jong Il statue and construct “towers to his immortality.â€
And it just keeps getting better

I was looking for a post of mine where I basically predicted this but I haven't found it yet. Needless to say, I am anything but surprised.

We predicted that a lot of them were faking it... Now we know they were. I hope the reeducation labor camps work.

What they teach them in those labor camps is how to work on chain gangs 20+ hours a day while starving to death.
