[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those of you blaming this kid.............The only ones saying he did anything wrong are the N Koreans.  
His roommate while he was there never saw him do anything.  Have the N Koreans released a video of him doing the act he is accused of?  Nope.  No evidence.

And, it does make one wonder why our government never reached out to this man to get his side of the story........

Look, we're never going to know what happened because the only person who could tell us is in a vegetative state. The roommate only knew him for five days and was not with him every minute. And does it really matter whether he touched the poster or not? The punishment was monstrous.

I understand that Otto's family and friends are looking for someone to blame for this, but nobody can know for sure whether the Obama administration could have done more for Otto or not.

Price said Thursday the Obama administration's efforts secured the release of at least 10 other Americans from North Korea. He says efforts to get Warmbier home never ceased.

What Obama efforts exactly?[/quote]
Right. All the article says is that Obama "worked through every avenue possible." Nice words, but meaningless. Obama was so inept in getting prisoners released (unless they were traitors) that he didn't even make hostage release a condition of the Iranian deal.[/quote]
