Police questioned him for 19 fucking hours over his personal recreational drug use — yet another victim of the war on drugs, created a century ago by conservatism to persecute minorities and the poor.
The police, the state, and Korean culture killed this man through bullying and harassment, because of what he chose to do with his own body — which should be nobody’s business but his own.
A lot of people with mental health issues self-medicate with illegal drugs. This guy was probably suffering from depression, and the police pushed him too far. So ridiculous and tragic.
