Your Government Thinks You Are Of "Limited Value"

 It's okay if they run you down going 74 in a 25 zone. You aren't of any real value to society.

Note, this is the VP of the Police Officer's Guild talking:

The Chinese Government is Afraid of a Cat!

 From the BBC article:

A cartoon cat has been vexing China’s censors – now he says they are on his tail

"Protest footage, details about police movements, news of arrests - Teacher Li Is Not Your Teacher posted a torrent of real-time updates sourced from ordinary citizens.

Little of it could be found on China’s tightly-controlled state media or internet. All of it was curated by one person, sitting in a bedroom in Italy – an art school student named Li Ying.

Mr Li has since become a vital chronicler of information deemed politically sensitive by Beijing. His X account is a window into Xi Jinping’s China where authorities’ vice-like grip on information keeps tightening. From major protests to small acts of dissent, corruption to crime, it is zealously scrubbed off the Chinese internet, only to turn up on Mr Li’s account.

He says this has earned him the wrath of the authorities and, in an interview with the BBC, he painted a clear picture of how Beijing pressures dissidents overseas. He alleged the Chinese government is not only harassing him but also his friends, family and X followers in a coordinated campaign of intimidation.

Xi Jingping is Evil and France Should not be Welcoming him

Not that the United States has exactly stood up to the CCP and Xi Jingping.

The Chinese People deserve better.

Wild coincidence that we would be in France at this time.

Your Government Is Sick, Depraved and Unaccountable!

 If anyone can read this and not be sickened by it.

If anyone can read this and have any faith in their government.

I am baffled.

I wish widespread rape and sexual assault in Federal prisons by GUARDS was an anomaly. But it isn't. Government abuses. Power corrupts. Evil protects Evil.

Your Government Pisses Me Off - That Doesn't Mean This Family Doesn't As Well

The article below details the arrest, detention and eventual death of a severely mentally ill, intellectually challenged homeless man for pointing his finger at police officers in a police station in a threatening manner. The behavior of the police and prison officials is unconscionable and indicative of a callous disregard for human life and dignity.

That a family that neglected this man just as severely is now self-righteously suing the city and may enrich themselves as a result of Your Government's behavior pisses me off even more.

I understand the monumental difficulties of dealing with a family member with severe disabilities, especially if you are of limited means. But the fact that he spent a year in jail physically deteriorating and his family apparently couldn't be bothered to check on him and realize that finding $100 for a bail bondsman to cover the $1000 bail and save his life ticks me off. The fact that NOW, when there is money to be made, they are sanctimonious aggrieved family members is incredibly hypocritical. I sincerely hope they plan on donating any winnings to charity...

This Guy Knows What's What!

It's not China

It's not the Chinese People

It's the Chinese Communist Party and it's pure Evil Leadership!
