A report issued by the State Council Information Office of the People's Republic of China has included U.S. gun ownership among a list of human rights violations, Law Enforcement Examiner Jim Kouri reported yesterday. "The Human Rights Record of the United States in 2011" was published last Friday on the PRC’s Consulate General in New York website.
“The United States prioritizes the right to keep and bear arms over the protection of citizens' lives and personal security and exercises lax firearm possession control, causing rampant gun ownership,” the report claims. “The U.S. people hold between 35 percent and 50 percent of the world' s civilian-owned guns, with every 100 people having 90 guns [and] 47 percent of American adults reported that they had a gun.”
The conclusion that gun bans will result in enhanced protection of lives and personal security flies in the face of both the American and Chinese experience. Predictably, the report presents many of the same cherry-picked arguments used by “leading” U.S. and international “gun control” organizations that totally ignore the protective benefits of arms in private hands. And, as typical with advocates of a centralized monopoly of violence, Chinese-style genocide, which resulted in government-caused deaths of unknown tens of millions of defenseless human beings in the 20th Century, and the current brutal occupation and tyrannical suppression of Tibetan sovereignty, is left unacknowledged. Left unsaid is the inconvenient truth that rendering captive populations unable to resist makes such monstrous crimes against humanity not only possible, but inevitable.

Any possibility in getting this in Chinese script so I can see the translation?
"Doom on you" in Vietnamese would work just as well.
By a weird coincidence, in China, the gov’t owns all the guns.
Thanks Nachum.
OK, I’ll bite.
Nothing to bite on ... translation ... Anal penetration, closest translation to “up ours” in Vietnamese as you can get.
Stfu commie bastard control freaks.
And the Democrats agree right along with them.
Communist China's EXISTENCE is a crime against humanity. There will be NO peace on earth as long as Communist China EXISTS.
Guess those ageing commies break into a major case of the cold sweats when they think of an armed population able to offer resistance to their peremptory diktats.
China, go pound sand.
Come and take it, MF’rs.
What, China lecturing US on human rights? Then we should lecture the Chinese on fiscal responsibilty!
Great Leap Forward
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Leap_Forward
The Great Leap ended in catastrophe, resulting in tens of millions of excess deaths.[3] Estimates of the death toll range from 18 million[4] to 45 million,[5] with estimates by demographic specialists ranging from 18 million to 32.5 million.[4] Historian Frank Dikötter asserts that “coercion, terror, and systematic violence were the very foundation of the Great Leap Forward” and it “motivated one of the most deadly mass killings of human history.”[6] In contrast, journals such as the Monthly Review have disputed the reliability of the figures commonly cited, the qualitative evidence of a “massive death toll”, and Mao’s complicity in those deaths which occurred.[7]
Cultural Revolution

The Great Leap was an economic failure. Uneducated farmers attempted to produce steel on a massive scale, partially relying on backyard furnaces to achieve the production targets set by local cadres. The steel produced was low quality and largely useless. The Great Leap reduced harvest sizes and led to a decline in the production of most goods except substandard pig iron and steel. Furthermore, local authorities frequently exaggerated production numbers, hiding and intensifying the problem for several years.[2][3] In the meantime, chaos in the collectives, bad weather, and exports of food necessary to secure hard currency resulted in the Great Chinese Famine. Food was in desperate shortage, and production fell dramatically. The famine caused the deaths of millions of people, particularly in poorer inland regions.[4]

” Since 1949 the Chinese communists killed from 5,999,000 to 102,671,000 people; a prudent estimate is 35,236,000. When added to the number they murdered in previous years, the communists likely killed 38,702,000 Chinese, Tibetans, and other minorities.”

Ironic, given that a few of my guns come from China! Looks like I need to buy more ammo, just in case the Chinese are coming over for dinner.
I think the Yamamoto quote is bogus. True, but bogus.
