Uighur or Han?
“Uighur or Han?”
Huh? You tell me. From a Canadian news site:
Making news this morning: More details on the Greyhound bus murder are circulating. A number of groups on the social networking Web site Facebook are paying tribute to 22-year-old Tim McLean as the victim of a horrific stabbing and decapitation. On his Myspace profile, McLean, who called himself “Jokawild,” described himself as someone who was into having a good time and “getting the most out of life.” RCMP said Friday that Vince Weiguang Li, 40, of Edmonton, has been arrested and charged with second-degree murder and is scheduled to appear in court in Portage la Prairie, Man., Friday at 10 a.m. local time.
So, please tell me. Is “Weiguang Li” Uighur or Han? And what, pray tell, is the difference?
