until then - in a country cut off from the outside world - north koreans go about their day - unaware.unaware -- millions of japanese woke up to air raid sirens. announcements warning them of a north korean missile launch. unaware -- south korea was conducting bombing drills. in response to pyongyang's most provocative launch in years...over japan. some may have heard the early morning missile.the launch site - remarkably close to the pyongyang airport.the same airport we flew into over the weekend.it's rare for north korea to launch a missile near a highly populated area. perhaps sending a message to the u.s. - any preemptive strike could have devastating humanitarian consequences.what north koreans do know - is what their government has been telling them all their lives. america is the enemy.a bully.a nation they must hate.here in pyongyang, people are surrounded by anti-american propaganda. you see a lot of images like this. a mobile missile launcher, missiles pointed towards the us --which is up in flames - and the words all of the mainland united states is within our striking range.the regime's longstanding narrative -- the u.s. could attack at any time. and their supreme leader kim jong un has no choice.but to continue his unprecedented barrage of missile testing.

they're told america cannot be trusted.when it says joint military drills with south korea are a dress rehearsal for war.ri hyon il,researcher "i think we've done enough talking," says ri hyon il. "what we want is real action." will ripley,cnn correspondent "what does that mean? what kind of action?"ri hyon il, researcher"you can imagine what kind of action," he says. "all we need is the order from our supreme commander."kim jong un commands absolute power over the north korean people.some 25 million lives - 25 million futures - rest in his hands.but they don't blame him for the hardships they endure.they blame america.and the hatred is palpable."i can read the body language."you can clearly see how strongly this man feels. will ripley, cnn correspondent "does north korea really want war with the u.s.?"jong hak,government employee"we value peace, we love peace," says jong hak. "we have our future, our children. if another war happens, koreans and americans will suffer. but we will never beg for peace." at the end of our interview - he says something that stands out.he tells me america is a big country.a bold country.act big, act bold, don't be a bully - he says -- because north korea will fight back. will ripley, cnn, pyongyang.

national recreation area and he's not just targeting tourist i've reached out to every car rentals there's 17 letters i wrote out to cooperate offices san francisco airport oakland airport san jose airport head back from one that is actually doing something (who) . hertz . herts is doing something out at sfo that says lock your vehicle take your valuables. there are signs set up at in the marin headlands that show photo's of car break-ins and information on how to avoid being a victim rangers also help get the word out by conducting impromptu car inspections and give parked cars an unofficial report card by looking for the things the bad guys look for we have doors left unlocked which is a common thing, windows or sunroof open and our biggest problem is valuables left out in the open such as purses, luggage or gps's but honestly are auto burglaries really that bad in a national park it horrible in 5 years just this park including the presidio and golden gate nationa recreational area there have been two and a half million dollars worth of items stolen. 2 and a half million and that under reported i was

curious was this a national trend of all the national parks in the country, there's over 400 right now golden gate national recreations ranks number 1 and it not even close who is number two so while ranger goodwin is trying to stem the tide of auto burgluries. his efforts will soon end because john is retiring however.his work is a clear cut case of people behaving nicely around a sea of people behaving badly .. i know what you're thinking he's just doing his job well for the record all the flyers in multiple languages and the large signs, i spent my own money on it because he knew trying to get the federal government to sign off on this would take forever .one final note . even after telling people to not leave stuff in the cars you got a suitcase here even got a small purse people still leave things out in the open remember it only takes 6 seconds for you to become a victim in the golden gate national recreational area in salsalito . stanley roberts kron 4 news
