|
 |
China is a pretty fucked up place to be (censoring the internet, etc.) but their human rights violations are going too far. Read for yourselves:

I found this bit to be particularly ironic:

China still lives in the dark ages, most chinese people are very poor and their goverment is one of the most conservetive goverments in the world.
China is a very beautifull country and most of the chinese people are really nice, but the chinese goverment is simply ridiculous
He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither

They do a nice job filtering out all the porn from the internet.

Man patriotism so has you blinded.
They are starting to find out through DNA testing of old cases that many, many innocent people have been executed or jailed. The more that they look at old cases the more they discover how faulty the system is.
Only people that there is no shadow of a doubt that they are guilty should be executed.
As for China yes they have a pathetic human rights record but corporations love the profits that they make off the back of the Chinese slaves. We also love the low Walmart prices. Talk about shooting ourselves in the foot.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that they haven't been able to prove with DNA evidence that they have executed an innocent man.
This is from Jan 2006:
| Quote: | ATLANTA (AP) -- Three newspapers and CBS News said Wednesday they would pay for new DNA tests on evidence from a 1981 Georgia murder case to explore whether the man executed for the crime was innocent.
If the DNA testing shows that Ellis Wayne Felker did not rape and kill 19-year-old Evelyn Joy Ludlam, it would be the first time DNA evidence exonerated an American inmate who was put to death. DNA evidence has cleared eight death-row inmates.
Felker, executed in 1996, claimed he was innocent. |
That does not mean that innocent people haven't been executed -- because I'm sure they have. We know there are innocent people on death row. Not all of them are lucky enough to be able to have DNA testing to exonerate them ...
