So does Google. The Chinese would NEVER get the information on a Google search...Google says be damn to the Chinese, grab the money.
It depends. If I was a high level Party member, I would be quite content!
Many of the grievances the peasants have are the same as we have in the US. Our right to property and our right to defend it are rapidly eroding. At the fore, Second amendment rights plus the Kelo US Supreme Court decision regarding property rights/seizure compensation. I think Kelo is the one of the highest criminal violation of our Constitution, but I don't have the balls to respond appropriately.
They probably were.
How old is that shot, anyway? These troops are holding SKS rifles and the nickle plated thingie looks like an SKS with a wood pistol grip.
I thought the SKS was long gone from army usage everywhere.

Cocktails. Molotov cocktails.
I think the photo is dated 10/05.
The photo should be fairly recent, however those are parade photos as evidenced by the uniforms and shiny jackboots. In fact, a hidden caption describes the photo as "review of the honour guard welcoming ceremony, 21 June 2005 in Beijing, for visiting Prime Minister of the Republic of Korea Lee Hae-chan." The SKS shown in this picture are for ceremonial purpose. They have been phased out long ago, but as is tradition everywhere, an earlier rifle with bayonet lug and wooden furniture remains the choice for parades (for the retro effect. the Bundeswehr is still using KAR98's). The standard infantry rifle for the PLA presently are the Type 95 bullpup and the Type 81 which is being phased out.
Have patience. mexico is dumping their population on us as fast as they can. At the current and projected rate of infiltration from our south we will gain about 50 million more illegals in 10 to 12 years, bringing our total to 75 million illegal aliens in country. At that time China will only have 10 times as many. Also, it will mean that one in five persons in the uS will be an illegal...
Of course that will not work, total internal war will have occurred before then.
Kinda makes your hair stand up, don't it?
700 illiterate ruralpeasants?

Not quite.
Thanks for the ping!
These people whould have taken their claims against goverment use of emminent domain to the US Supreme Court.
Oh....wait. Maybe not. Didn't they just rule in favor of the City of Hartford grabbing private housing and giving it to developers to increase the tax base.
Sorry Chinese people...our governments seem to be thinking alike - at least in some things.
ta-ta...
Which is probably never sadly.
