If you wonder why WalMart is referred to as ChinaMart, this is one reason why...

Was it a human skin purse?

When the Chinese man stopped the Chinese tank [many years ago], it was a US News agency that helped identify the man.

I fear this Chinese prisoner might be executed for stuffing this note in the purse.

The note is displayed at the news article site.

In China, one can be arrested for owning a Bible... Such people might be at the prison, which the note describes conditions.

Slave labor at work for WalMart at cheap, cheap, cheap prices, the price of human life in China...

Any store that sells products made in China could have had that note. Wally World is not unique

The prisoners do not have to come up with the materials.

But the note implies that if your work quota is not fulfilled, you get to work overtime for free, especially since the prisoners mostly work for free...

Agreed. But WalMart does have the reputation of being called ChinaMart -- especially here on Free Republic.

That woman would have never known where that purse was going to be sold. Most stores in the US sell Chinese made stuff.

In fact, this may all be a big hoax.

Hmmm Sierra Vista is home to Fort Huachuca the army's intelligence school. Graduates of the Defense Language Schools are assigned here.

This may be a hint there could be a hoax here.

A horrifying story if you look at the ‘big picture’. If history was a tiny bit different, that note may have been written in polish or russian or even english.

Hi.

IIRC this type of incident has happened before at Wal-Mart.

Twice I think.

Wally World said they did a “through “ investigation and found it a hoax.

Who knows?

Same goes for iPhone, but nobody seems to care about that.

How Chinese workers are mistreated is not a hoax.

The price we pay for having ignored and dismissed Patton and MacArthur, et al.

I’ve been to that Walmart.

That’s a nice, rural town.
