Like Trump, you know who else doesn't like owning a dog? Kim Jong Un

North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has ordered pet dogs to be confiscated in the country’s capital, saying the pooches represent Western “decadence’’ — but their owners fear Fido is really headed for someone’s dinner table.

Kim issued the directive in July to round up the pets, claiming they were part of “a ‘tainted’ trend by bourgeouis ideology,’’ a source told the English edition of Chosun Ilbo, a South Korean newspaper.

“Ordinary people raise pigs and livestock on their porches, but high-ranking officials and the wealthy own pet dogs, which stoked some resentment’’ among the lower classes, the source said.

“Authorities have identified households with pet dogs and are forcing them to give them up or forcefully confiscating them and putting them down.’’

1. Ordinarily, I would think this is satire wrongly interpreted by the NY Post. But..

North Koreans have no talent for satire.

2. Everything kind, that Kim Jun Un touches, dies.

Then he eats it for dinner!

I had to check for mockery as well, but considering its Kim Jun Un, I don't doubt he'd be this cold hearted.

3. Chosun Ilbo an unreliable source on North Korea cites 'a source'

This is a distraction from this news in South Korea as the conservative movement there continues to implode:
