My parents and most of my extended family are ethnically China; unfortunately, most cases of what we would call treason do occur among fellow Chinese, some of whom are new citizens. Most of these are people whose sole purpose is to help the “motherland.” They are chauvinists to the nth degree. After surviving the Cultural Revolution, my cousin and her husband basically have it right: “We owe nothing to China, it’s that government who owes us for the deaths of family members.”
Earlier this year, the FBI hauled in a guy from the suburbs of Chicago, ready to get on a plane to Shanghai. He was caught on tape in a sting operation.
I think my mom, at age 79, would be a good judge of who is going to turn on this country but she wouldn’t get hired due to “racial profiling.”
