I was just remembering -—

When we first came to China in 1990, the four children we had then were all under thirteen years old, and all WHITE haired (”toe-headed”).

We were waiting at a train station and crowds of people hovered over us, ALL wanting to feel the children’s hair.

Police arrived to disperse the crowd, and we were shown to a private waiting room. The police said, “You are too WHITE!”

See, now wouldn’t it be more courteous and courageous to aim your insults directly at me?

Seriously...I’m a Reagan Republican going way back. It’s just that some of the statements being reported do not appear to be true.

Has anyone ever seen a wild eyed Mongolian on bender? Well, I have and let me tell you, it’s not a pretty site.

I sat in an outdoor Beijing restaurant yesterday and today and saw black people being served.

To be honest, the article did say "bars", not "restaurants"....

Point taken. This was a “pub,” a restaurant serving liquor, or a bar serving food.

I haven’t seen many outdoor places that were purely “bars.” Most seem to serve soft drinks or some kind of food. But just today I sat outside and drank a beer on a busy downtown avenue.

My Sister in law goes to China on missionary trips teaching english as a second language and she is very self respecting.

Perhaps I am more self respecting than her tho, because you couldn't get me to go to that 3rd world commie $#!t hole in a hundred years.

Your reports seem valid. Freepers should not be bothering you

My own take is maybe the Chinese police are telling certain bars known for being where you can get hookers and drugs.... Not to serve blacks and coloreds

Thanks. I’m not by any means trying to paint a glowing picture here. I fully realize that any moment I could come face to face with the full power of an authoritarian state. That’s the way it is here—apparent freedom and happiness one moment, an iron fist the next.

I don’t know! Haven’t been to the theater lately. However, I did take a quick trip to Inner Mongolia earlier this week. All seemed to be well there, if you like lamb.

No, but I’ll tell you what—I had a Beijing hot dog the other day at one of the fancy malls. It was delicious! They called it a New York Dog—all beef and with sauerkraut!

My ex-wife's boyfriend worked for a company that did a lot of business with China, and he traveled there quite a bit.

I had a "plan" to call the Chinese Embassy and "tip them off" that he was a spy of some sort, but he was laid off shortly after they moved in together.

A year later, the idiot went on a bender and died in a car wreak....

I hear that the Lord looks after drunks and fools: he went 0 for 2....

I’m sorry if you found my post “insulting”—it wasn’t because it was based on the empiracal historical evidence of Chicom manipulation of all media.
You have no bona fides other than your anonymous personal “testimonials” that cannot begin to challenge the veracity of this or any other article.
Fact—China is an evil communist regime.Opinion—you,whoever you are,disagree.
Source an article not connected to the PRCPRC (Peoples’ Republic of China Public Relations Crap)that refutes this article and I will release you from my list of suspicious,possibly perfidious,socialist operatives.
