What a lovely country China is.

Ping!
"What a lovely country China is."
I'm sure more than a few visitors to this site would like this thing to go on closer to home.

And what makes you so sure.
All the posts made here are open, would you please site some.
Yeah, but they stock our shelves with cheap crap, so its a glass half full kind of thing.
"I don't mind executing criminals...I'm all for it. Harvesting their organs for sale is gruesome, however."
There have been stories of the Falung Gong being killed in prisons and their organs being sold:

As much as I despise the Labour and Liberal Parties, I'm not uncivilised enough to demand we slaughter them and sell their vital organs.

Is this true?? crikey...

Communist China has zero ethics. We can not let them dictate world affairs in the future.
To be honest I can't at this moment but whenever a post announcing an execution whether in the US or elsewhere appears, its rare indeed that any poster expresses any regret except for the length of time it took to execute them or the method was too quick/not painful enough.
"its rare indeed that any poster expresses any regret except for the length of time it took to execute them or the method was too quick/not painful enough."
That's because many people here support the death penalty. Why would anyone express regret for a convicted murderer's execution?
I'm a little torn.
On one hand we have a little bit of good coming out out of a bad situation. There are thousands of people waiting for transplants that don't get them and die as a result.
On the other hand I can envision the Chinese government taking orders for body parts and matching them to the prison population. Whoever is a match suddenly becomes the next in line to be a willing donor.
I've read articles where the prisoner was shot, hauled over to an ambulance, and harvested while still breathing and awake. In some cases it wasnt the gunshot that killed them it was the organ removal. Since many of China's production lines involve prisoners this may be a new twist on downsizing.
We should remember this the next time we choose to save a few bucks on christmas tree lights.
I haven't seen any on the use of adult organs - but if Freepers follow any thread that touches on the fate of frozen human embryos then they will find some posts from latter-day Mengeles
Is this a Wal-Mart thread?
So the Chinese are capitalists after all.
"That's because many people here support the death penalty. Why would anyone express regret for a convicted murderer's execution?"
That was my original point; madivan was criticising China and I just made the observation I think that a lot of posters to this site would like to do the same thing that China is being criticised for.
