Never mind that they've allegedly got missiles poised to wipe out Japan, they're selling porn in Finland.

"(North Korea has) been caught trying to sell pornography in Finland and prohibited animal products, like rhinoceros horn, in Africa, counterfeiting in Kuwait and trafficking heroin in Australia," Schieffer said.
