Ping.
China crows about its supporters in Tibet crisis.
bttt
“Foreigners” include:
Russians loyal to Vladimir Putin
Venezuelans loyal to Chavez
And so on...
They are at least numb-minded, insensitive, no-sllab, or stupid if they are not real commies. A percentage of Chinese people still don’t get it even they have been to USA long time. They know how good USA is and they like to have their kids grow up here. But they don’t know why this country is so great - People have fought and bled for it! They don’t know how to appreciate it and don’t contribute (vote responsibly), and don’t care what is happening in China.
Total BS
A church filed a lawsuit after police officers, led by a local prosecutor, entered the sanctuary at least twice without a warrant, alleging the church's music was too loud. In one instance, they threatened to arrest church musicians for disorderly conduct.
Faith Baptist Church, with a congregation of about 10,000 members, is suing local officials in the Township of Waterford, Mich., in a First Amendment case a church attorney said could have national ramifications in establishing what local governments can do in regulating churches.
The suit -- alleging the township violated the church's freedom of religious expression, freedom of speech and freedom of association -- was filed earlier this month in U.S. District Court in Detroit after the church had been subject to what it describes as raids by the Waterford Police Department, led by township prosecutor Walter Bedell.

I don’t understand what you tried to say. Please explain. I know some Chinese who don’t care about politics. They are numb-minded and insensitive and even think Chinese people haven’t achieved the level to deserve liberty. In the meantime they don’t bother to help even though they have been here in USA long time. I have a classmate from elementary schoool who exressed the above to me. She has been here longtime. She even goes to church every weekend. I don’t think she is a real christian. Of course, there are a lot of Chinese who have strong conscience and will stand up for liberty and justice and will help.
For example, on Liberty yours is an experience of always having it and most importantly of never seeing it abused. For Chinese people, liberty has connotations of danger.It is a radical movement. Past radical movements have had very, very bad consequences.
Couple that with a country that has made big progress in personal liberties and the economic that is greatly improved for millions.
Here is a question you must study and answer before you can understand the differences: What do Chinese people think they risk for what you think they should be concerned about?
You can not answer that question if you do not understand where Chinese society has been. If you have that understanding, then you will have part of the answer, the answer I see (my answer is by no means complete).
I hope that is clear to you.
I was born and raised in China, Sir
Also when I talk about my own ethnic group, I only mean a percentage of Chinese people whose sllabs got cut off, insensitive, and numb-minded. NOT ALL OF THEM! Please understand freedom never comes free. This country is so great because people have fought and bled for it and are still doing it. When Chinese people come here to enjoy what is laid out there, they should know why this country is so great and give a little instead of just taking it. No matter what excuses or reasons can be found, Chinse people shouldn’t give up or stop trying. Benjamin Franklin said: “Anyone who trades security for liberty deserves neither.”
Then you understand what took place during the cultural revolution and understand that risking what took place then is not something to be taken lightly.
Correction: Benjanmin Franklin said: “Anyone who trades liberty for security deserves nothing.”
As long as Chinese don’t give up and get sllab, it’s all it matters. Glad there are other republicans with same ethnicity on this website. I believe Chinese have intelligence and wisdom to achieve liberty. As to whether Chinese have the sllabs to do it, — That’s a practical question. Experience? Just need to learn. Help? Tons of helps if Chinese would want to help themselves - Ask American republicans on this website.
I think you are holding different opinions from republicans on this website.
Wish there is a www.freerepublic.com in Chinese. So we can communicate better.
what the hell does that article about the church have to do with this subject?
Definately lost in translation. Sorry.
Definately lost in translation. Sorry. I’m not making myself clear.
The Cultural Revolution was the Chinese government’s method of bringing about the “dream” of communism to the “PEOPLE” through slavery, famine, and death. So you are worried about risking this adventure again how?
For China to ever become a free nation, with the human rights that God granted rather than those grudgingly given by a communist slavemaster, the people themselves are going to have to figure out that it is better to die standing up instead of living on their knees. There is great inherent risk in the quest for freedom, and the price to maintain it is very high. If that is all too much work, then China is truly a lost cause, and will be the last surviving member of a disproven system.
If you spend a lot of time in both nations as your profile page states, then you should plainly see this. Unless you are part of the system there.
