Apparently, North Korea is feeling left out.
North Korean and South Korean soldiers exchanged gunfire across their heavily militarized border late Monday -- the first border clash this year.
North Korea fired first, aiming two shots at a South Korean guard post. One bullet hit the guard post, but no one was wounded.
South Korean troops returned fire, aiming six rounds at the North Koreans. Pyongyang has not commented on the incident, and it is not known if any North Korean soldiers were hurt.
I'm guessing those two shots were approved at the highest level of the North Korean government. What the South should do is position chain guns along the DMZ and when a North Korean guard flings even one slug over the border, South Korea should reduce the North's guard post to toothpicks. That's called responding with overwhelming force. Although I've been stationed in South Korea twice, I've never seen the DMZ, because we had to wear our Class-A uniform to go up there. I wasn't going to dress up in my Sunday best for a bunch of commies.
