TraLaLa - your first link is a typically predictable post by you.
And if you actually believe the content of the second link then you need to have your metal stick sharpened. |

I should say that most of the posts I replied to are predictable as always. |

From lala's 2nd link:
| Quote: |
| One couple realized their son was missing while they were busy playing mah-jongg. Instead of looking for him themselves, they called in the police on "110" to find their son so they could continue the game. |
 Pardon me while I whip out my Sharpening Stone, as that ^ is believable. |

Sweetcheeks, there ain't enough Made In China knives, dull or otherwise, that could cut through your issues.
But I do know of a midget blacksmith that could forge you something special. I think they refer to him as fuky or some such. |

Hahaha… be nice to Lala. I like her, not only her avatar, but her humor in many of her postings.
The story happened in the most backward part of China. What the story related to is like a translation from an ancient Chinese novel.
From what I have read from the News in Chinese, nowadays, all the death penalties have to be approved by the high court. Obviously this is true as shown in the story’s ending. .
And the death penalties being applied to the wrong parties have happened everywhere. Only a story happened in China adds the mystic element of orient. As the saying goes, any thing happened in China, a country which you may have very little understanding, got to be wrong according to your own culture standard.
But unfortunately, human natures have many similarities. In the old Chinese saying, you don’t have to go to court requesting a fair justice if you don’t have money. Here in North America, only the same theme has been played in different tone. Here with the money, you can get the best lawyers. When a lawyer can manipulate the system to his/ her clients’ advantage, where is the fair justice? |

The article was actually about systemic problems in the Chinese justice system. I thought it made valid points.
I am also UTTERLY F**CKING AMAZED, that as somebody who claims to care about China so much, you give not a stuff about the problems identified in the article, preferring instead to complain about foreigners applying their own 'cultural standard' in judging China (the issue is a justice system issue, not a cultural one - i.e. all that is required to fix the problem is for the police to do their job honestly according to Chinese law), and pointing out that indivduals have also been wrongly accused of crimes overseas.
Like most of your face-obsessed, xenophobic compatriots your first instict is to ignore a problem and and point the figure elsewhere.
Given that you have spent half your life outside China I would expect better from you. Unlike alot of Chinese you have no excuse for your evil attitudes. |

Book Description
For nearly three decades, Joyce Milgaard told anyone who would listen that her son David was an innocent man trapped in a nightmare, sentenced to life in prison at age seventeen for a rape and murder he did not commit.
From the time David was imprisoned in 1970, Joyce Milgaard pleaded with prime ministers, justice ministers, lawyers, scientists, church groups, police and the media to achieve her son's freedom.
Finally, David was released from prison in 1992, and in the summer of 1997, his name was cleared. DNA testing conducted in a laboratory in England conclusively proved what Joyce had always maintained -- that her son was the victim of a gross injustice when he was convicted and imprisoned for the murder of nursing aide Gail Miller of Saskatoon.
Joyce Milgaard's first-person story is an inspiring example of the unbreakable bond between a mother and her child, an illustration of the supportive strength of religious faith, and an empowering victory for the human spirit. |

The above story happened in Canada, a country of 30 millions. Android's story happened in a remote area of China, a country of 1300 millions. Take a case as such to generalize to the whole judicial system of China, is it fair?
For a huge country of 1300 millions, there got to have some mistakes and problems. Magnifying every problem of China out of its proportion, and without looking at mirror of your own image, is it the western form of justice!
FK bombing whatever you desire, nothing will change the image of bias and stupidity of a history major! |
