Do you think that China is what kind of a country?

[tj11]

In China; chinese restaraunts are just called restaraunts, and chinese food is just called food.

 

I had chinese food for dinner tonight, it was tasty.

LMFAO

[joe_bevis]

i heard the internet in china is heavily censored.

[Starion]

i heard the internet in china is heavily censored.

Only at certain times by the looks of things.

 

 

..One week we had a massive invasion on chinese people asking for our opinions on China, and now they've all gone and will probably be back for another strange week.

[Lioshenka]

China??? Well, it is a country that has guts to say whatever they want to US of A, which deserves tap on the shoulder.

 

It is a coutry which noone from NATO likes, but they don't care as they can fcuk NATO any minute.

 

They have one family one child policy; internet censoring - all good things that we lack here in Europe.

 

They have death penalty and twats who steal money from people are shot. Zats good.

 

They gave enought money'n'stuff to Tibet to make it a prosperous area dn noone appreciates it.

 

Oh, and they get most medals on every Olympics.

[Algonquin Bridge]

Beh, from what i've seen and know, I think that:

 

a) It has an oppressive sort of Communist Government.

b) Internet is censored.

c) Indirectly encourage the stealing of copper from train line wires.

d) Produces a lot of CO2 due to coal usage.

e) Denies Tiannamen Square.

f) Lots of people.

g) Sort of alright food, I guess.

 

Apologies if this offends, but they's just my 2 cents. Or pennies, whichever you prefer.

[HolyGrenadeFrenzy]

The Three Wise Ninjas have something to say. I have no idea why they call themselves that and also no idea why ninjas have an opinion on China.

 

Being born female is not a survival trait.

 

American is looking juicy because of the increased female to male ratio.

Yes, because that's EXACTLY what China has managed to keep out from infesting in their population's computer networks, and hey, it's not bad when everything politically unpleasing is not let through. Let's not keep the simple-minded peasant population too worried about politics, it would make their brains overdrive.

If you are being ironic - I wonder, how many people in Britain actually care about politics hehe. What people anywhere want - have a god salary and friends, and noone takes a damn about the politics.

 

If you want to change the way your country is run - work for it, instead of running like a chicken with banners. Get a degree in politics, get support from population and you will not even need a election campaign. Too bad so-called opposition doesn't like to work hard to achieve something (Free Tibet my as$ hehe).

[KingyThePothead]

Casually ask..

I would like to know China in the minds of the people of the world is what

i think any country that can take over the world through food deserves some form of respect!

 

short people though

Exactly. China seem to be more interested in censoring things they don't agree with than anything else. It's all political.

You're missing the point, what you have in Britain, and many other places is apathy, but people are allowed their own views. What you have in China is the Government forcibly controlling what their people think and say.

 

Tienanmen square ring a bell?

 

This

 

Disagreeing with the state not a good move in China.

 

If you think that the right way to run a country, you are completely screwed up.

I almost forgot this Chinese car crash test:

 

 

[IrishMobster]

Nice food and with a "controlled" media.

[Starion]

I almost forgot this Chinese car crash test:

 

 

Do you think the driver of it would of survived?

[nlitement]

Ugh man no that's not the point. The smuggled people survive.

[Starion]

Ah, I see.

 

 

..Wait, so the smuggled people are trapped in the middle of nowhere, possibly miles away from the border with no driver at all? Just a box with wheels.

Russia > Japan > China > Korea > All other asian countries

 

I still like Japan the most.

[Playgirl_X]

My husband lived there for 5 years when he was a kid. He roamed the streets with his friends a lot with no worries about abduction or anything. Pretty safe, at least back then...Unfortunate thing is, he saw a lot of babies just left in the streets by parents who didn't want them.

Death by exposure?

 

That is an ancient method of infanticide yet the trouble with it is far worse in that location.

 

The Law is restrictive on the size a family may be...some of the penalties are very heavy.

 

And females are treated fairly terrible and are the first to be chosen for death as infants.

 

The population of China is reported as stable but....it is not or their would be no need for infant abandonment or infantcide.

Since when the hell did Russia become an asian country?

as implied in your post logic tree.

 

my views are....maybe i'll visit Hong Kong. But if i want to visit that general 'area' of the world, I would move slightly to the right and go to Japan.

[Bawjaws]

absolutely true story. when i was alot younger, maybe eight i was a bit of a towaway kid. at that time my karate teacher who was chinese realy took me in, he taught me discipline and respect and realy got me into martial arts. It realy put me on the right track and i learned how honourable and respectful the chinese people are. I dont claim to know the political situation in china but its not an accurate reflection of its people. I would suggest that alot of the censorship issues are due to the fact they want to have their core values protected from corruption from the dirty dirty west and all its titty bars! so anyway, theres me and my sensei realy got a kind of karate kid relationship going, untill at the age of 15 he f*cks off to take a higher paying job elsewhere!..... bastard! So, now at 23 im back to being a towaway but now with some deadly skills to boot!.... god i love china! Xiexie!

Remember that bearded islamist guy, who was agitating others to kill all non-muslims??? Sits is the jail, he does. Opinions are allowed as long as they do not intersect with the security of the country. Same in China.

 

 

Tienanmen square ring a bell?

So what??? Anyone who wants to overthrow the ruling party gets beaten. In Western countries - not so severely, in China - using karate

If you are thinking everyone should do what mr. Bush says - it is you who are screwed.

 

 

Leave Tibet.

 

...commies.

Free Ireland? Free Californina??? Free whatever that French territory is that wants separation? Free Abkhazia? You would make a great leader, my friend.

Wow ˸øåíüêà, its become apparent to me that you're just some extremist ass hole. Tell me, why do you like oppression and tyranny so much?

[Lioshenka]

Not opression and tyrany. Order and security. Now, since I'e satisfied your question, answer me, why do you occuse me of things, that I did not say?

 

Following your logic, you are the same extremist, who wants everything to be rules american way. Doesn't work - even in Britain (see Bush's last visit) We have got many clever people in the Parliament, who decide what is the best for us. So does China. And unlike some other superstates China doesn't decide, which nation has to live, and which has to be exterminated.

Order and security. Riiight. That's what Hitler and other tyrants used to justify their dictatorships. I know you never said you supported such things, but you heavily implied it in your posts.

 

And tell me, what makes you think I want everything to be ruled the American way? I'd hate it if the world was ruled the "American way". The world would be a very boring place because everything would be the same. Variety is good.

[HolyGrenadeFrenzy]

 

HolyGrenadeFrenzy chimes in with his two cents and sighs

 

....Ben, Ben, Ben.......What would you think of this thread?

 

I could really get cheeky Henry David Thoreau with some quotes, if only the beginning of Civil Disobedienceand, but why should I go that far into things when I can just start with Ben.

 

 

Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

This statement was used as a motto on the title page of An Historical Review of the Constitution and Government of Pennsylvania. (1759) which was attributed to Franklin in the edition of 1812, but in a letter of September 27, 1760 to David Hume, he states that he published this book and denies that he wrote it, other than a few remarks that were credited to the Pennsylvania Assembly, in which he served. The phrase itself was first used in a letter from that Assembly dated November 11, 1755 to the Governor of Pennsylvania. An article on the origins of this statement here includes a scan that indicates the original typography of the 1759 document, which uses an archaic form of "s": "Thoſe who would give up Essential Liberty to purchaſe a little Temporary Safety, deſerve neither Liberty nor Safety." Researchers now believe that a fellow diplomat by the name of Richard Jackson is the primary author of the book. With the information thus far available the issue of authorship of the statement is not yet definitely resolved, but the evidence indicates it was very likely Franklin, who in the Poor Richard's Almanack of 1738 is known to have written a similar proverb: "Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor Liberty to purchase power."

Many paraphrased variants derived from this saying have arisen and have usually been incorrectly attributed to Franklin:

"They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."

"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

"Those Who Sacrifice Liberty For Security Deserve Neither."

"He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security."

"He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither."

"People willing to trade their freedom for temporary security deserve neither and will lose both."

"If we restrict liberty to attain security we will lose them both."

"Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both."

"He who gives up freedom for safety deserves neither."

"Those who would trade in their freedom for their protection deserve neither."

 

Here is one of many sources I could provide on the subject.

 

Benjamin Franklin

 

Point is this....Even if Ben didn't say it first does not mean that the value of the statement is any less. Security and liberty can not be exchanged for one another just as the notion that a closed system can not create an open system we must regard things as they change in a manner of getting worse and things get better through something more than blind faith in the "good intentions" of others when they offer up excuses to limit you for what ever reasons that are deemed to satisfy your aurguement.

 

There is no such thing as security and order is not safe to time either.

 

Thus permenant sacrifice of your boudaries for thes things only results in the promise of further sacrifice until you eventually equate survival with slavery.

 

There is a better way.
