North Korea celebrated the 65th anniversary of the founding of the country as only it knows how, with spectacle and pageantry displayed on a grand scale of organized marching, waving, and weeping.
The 65th anniversary celebration is on the heels of reports that Kim Jong Un reportedly executed his ex-girlfriend for violating pornography laws.
Dennis Rodman also recently visited his "friend" Kim and met his child, and called Kim a "very good guy," despite the continued human rights abuses by the North Korean regime and the imprisonment of its people in camps.
North Korea also apparently has a big meth problem.
But hey, parade time in Pyongyang!
