... If you cross the North Korean border illegally, you get 12 yrs. hard labour. If you cross the Afghanistan border illegally, you get shot. Two Americans just got eight years for crossing the Iranian border.

1) In North Korea population have to eat grass to survive
2) In Afghanistan life expectancy is 45 years
3) In Iran people get hang publicly for stuff like "witchcraft"
Question - would you rather live in UK with "lax" border controls or there? -
And if you believe the crap you read in the papers, you get to spend your life brooding resentfully over a load of stuff that isn't true.
It never ceases to amaze me that people take bollocks like this at face value. You probably think it's a really cushy life in prison as well, what with all the free Xboxes and 50 inch plasma TVs convicts are given to help pass the time when it's too rainy to be taken to the seaside at your personal expenseComment
