You can do something foolishly that is worthy of jail time. But in this case he appears to have asked ahead of time if this behavior was problematic, was told that it was, then did it anyways.

To me that's the kicker. He's plainly had doubts, confirmed those doubts were real and yet went ahead regardless.

Without that he'd surely be finding a lot more sympathy, regardless of personal opinions on NK.
