as a chinese,though this time i signed on here with no problem,i would say when i typing comments here now,i even have a little angst if cops of china will notice me.
i am very wondered can american pose any politic opinion on BBS without fearing cops?i dont know because i have never been U.S. and even never talked with an american. could someone tell me about that?
and, i can not view YOUTUBE’s total vedeo.when i searched ‘olimpic’or’tibet’or some other key words on youtube, there would be ‘this page can’t be found’or’error’.and today the youtube is completely cant be opened(i think just because the earthquake).do you american have internet ristriction like this?
who can tell me?
thanks all
pose = post
A quick reply. Yes, americans can post any political opinion we want without any fear of punishment by the government. That is the quick answer. However, a private enterprise, one owned by an individual, may have restrictions of their own. That isn’t a government thing at all and no one will get in trouble with the law. For example, if I wrote here that the president previous to the current one was a fine example of a human being, the US government wouldn’t shut me down. But I might get banned from FR.
Note to moderators: I said IF and I couldn’t bring myself to use that fool’s name.
It is late at my location (I am not in the US) and I must get to bed.
Free speech means that we have the freedom to say what we like as well as listening to whatever other people have to say.
Sad that so many American take that freedom for granted.
Why would you remove that post?
There was nothing vulgar or racist in it.
That's correct. It's in the Constitution, freedom of speech.
Wow, as a Chinese, you are much more “alert” than me. You really think Chinese cops or policemen would arrest you because of what you wrote just now??? I don’t think so.
Have you ever been to Tianya and posted some complaints or angers about our gov.? Seems like you haven’t.
And by the way, you may download a U89 to help you bypass YouTube, if you want.
i really question if you are really a chinese. as a chinese woman myself i live half year in china half year in europe i never find a problem to login into most of western websites in china,except porn websites.
chinese people talk politcial things all the time in forums and gave comments after policital news, and some of them critisized the government officals corruption ect,i did’t see any problems they got from cops.
if you talk about chinese afraid of post views in policial things 10 years ago, maybe that could happen, but for now, that’s really laughable! china change all the time, life and freedom are getting better and better all the time when the economy getting improving.
for some american people if you can read chinese, i suggest you go to chinese websites check by yourself, not by what western medias told you or some guys pretending to be a chinese.
