and that the use of skin from condemned convicts is "traditional" and nothing to "make such a big fuss about".

Think I'll stick with Ponds cold creme, thanks all the same.

And Soylent Green is People!

[najida]

EEKK!!!
I'm so glad I just use plain Ivory and water.

Sounds like an urban legend. Like eating corpses or the euthanizing patients in NOLA.

The only thing that lends this credence is the Chinese government's involvement.

[Bon mots]

This is one of the nastiest stories I have yet seen about those nasty Chicoms.

What's next? Lampshades?

[<1/1,000,000th%]

Looks like they found a way around using animals for testing.

PETA must be ecstatic. Why haven't they demanded we do that here?

[cyborg]

I guess someone watched Fight Club before composing this piece of crap.

"And Soylent Green is People!"

First thing that came to my mind, too.

[End Times Sentinel]

Absolutely savage and disgusting.  Just sub human.  Using a human corpse for beauty products!  My blood runs cold to think of all the pairs of pants and jackets these bodies could have been turned into.

Well, if it's traditional, who can argue with that?

I wonder if they ever make any lampshades.

from skin taken from prisoners after they have been shot

That's horrible. I won't use anything unless it comes from prisoners before they are shot.

Moral Absolutes Ping.

This is very, very wrong. Not quite as bad as using parts of aborted babies, but in the same realm.

Freepmail me if you want on/off this pinglist.

Some things are just plain wrong.

[RichInOC]

Sound like something out of the Lecter books.

[adgirl]

Seriously, I've seen those people and it's not like they have really amazing complexions or anything. I suppose if they did, I'd have to buy the products--just kidding ewwwwwwwwwww!

[God luvs America]

why does this come as a surprise?? They already sell their organs off to those who need donations...

[al baby]

I heard they make wallets out of foreskins


you rub them they turn into suitcases

[cripplecreek]

Nothing China does suprises me.

[Doe Eyes]

Can you believe that American citizens can freely travel to this hellhole?
