    Oh, The Irony!

    Some South Korean lawyers claim that sharing the criminal records of citizens is in violation of basic human rights, while Washington insists it is one of the basic standards to be met by those countries wanting to join the Visa Waiver Program to help protect American nationals and interests from terrorists or criminals who have committed felonies.

    So if you're a dirty foreigner in Korea you have to prove that a) you don't have AIDS and b) you're not a criminal mastermind. But when the shoe is on the other foot it's a violation of human rights?!

    Gimme a break!
