Maybe we need to get tougher on our drug smugglers, and terrorists! Not sure if this guy had mental illness, highly doubtful if there was no prior record.

HA HA.. China, unlike the wimpy western liberal/socialist governments, will take care of itself. We send terrorists and drug smugglers back for a second try. China makes sure they don't get another chance.

Ah, I’m torn on this one.

Seems the standard defense for anyone facing the death penalty is ‘mental illness’. China or here.

Perhaps the Chinese had more on their mind than drug smuggling. I wouldn’t really know.

I’m not a big fan of the PRC but what does “mentally ill” have to do with drug smuggling? Of course he was mentally ill - he was smuggling to a country that has a Death Penalty for drug smuggling! I don’t see how that’s gonna mitigate the penalty.

You really have to be crazy to smuggle dope into China.
