Copycat Border Crosser -- Equally Insane

I guess it was only a matter of time until another person went into North Korea after Robert Park did it in December.

Whack-job Park was captured but later released back to the United States -- as if anyone wanted him there.

From the story:

'North Korea announced Monday that Aijalon Mahli Gomes, 30, would stand trial after entering the country illegally. The trial date was not mentioned in a brief report in state media.

It was not immediately clear why Gomes, who taught English in South Korea, went to the communist country. However, activists in Seoul said he was an acquaintance of Robert Park, a fellow Christian from Arizona who crossed into North Korea on Christmas in a bold bid to draw attention to the country's human rights situation.'

The facts on Gomes:
1. He taught English in South Korea. I'm glad he's giving all of us a nice reputation.
2. He went to two rallies in Seoul for Park and was seen "weeping."
3. He's from Boston and is a devout Christian.

My opinion on Gomes:
1. This is unchanged from my opinion on Park. If he wants to go to North Korea so badly, they can simply keep him.

This story definitely qualifies for birds
