Or misguided.
Yes, good point. But can't deny a very warped sense of reality, to think one could go there and treat it lightly.
Some may have the idea that, since NK isn't necessarily respectable as a government, it means paying respect in general isn't a high priority once there. Big mistake.
Others may believe a supernatural force will protect them if their only "offense" is to leave religious books around, or if they start conversations about God with groups of farmers or townspeople. That hasn't always worked out well.
One guy walked across the border waving a bible and a handful of letters written to the main guy, trying to convince him to step down and exit the country, lol.
Stuff like that.
