“I am not against capital punishment, but the Chinese government is really barbaric and needs to be stopped. Take the baby thing too. *******s. And such as they are, they charge the bloody families for the bullet used!”

what are u on about here? what babies?:rolleyes:

“Doesn’t matter, Pla. It’s just barbaric.”

and i supose we should just give ppl who make a living out of kidnapping and sell women off to a life of oppresion and misery a few years in prison so they can make a few friends and get back to business as usual when they are let out?:rolleyes:

i supose corrupt officals who give contracts to their friends and family so that they can use substandard material to build damns that burst when the flood waters come and bridges that collapse under a little bit of extra weight is put on it at the cost of many lives should be only punished with a few years in prison?:rolleyes:

china is still largely a poor country, and poor and desperate ppl sometimes do things citizens of more richer countries would not think off.

“So if they are executing 10,000 a year and only publicising the mass murderers and (possibly) one-off poisoners, what did those who are shot but we don’t hear about do?

it only says that some are not publicised, meaning ppl dont read about in the papers, but the number is still added to the total count.

“Cheat at golf?”

anyone who plays golf should be shot, not just the cheaters.:D 😉

compaired to population size, those numbers arent that much higher then many other countries.

shame they couldnt get the sinkhead ref to do it. then it would have been perfect.:D 🙁

oh, that one. thats class.:D

“I do agree, for people like Al-Sadr there is no compromise, he has decided to fight it out and he has to be neutralised. The important part will be how.”

Al-sadr was opposed to the occupation from the start and he made his feeling clear from day one, but he has only now resorted to using his malitia, the question has to be asked, why?

the root of the problem is that the little good will the iraqi ppl had for the occupation forces for removing saddam is wearing thin and totally gone in some places. looking at opinon polls will not change that fact no matter how rose the ppl who compiled them make it seem. did those opion polls show any sign that the whole nation was about to be threwn into caos this week?

iraqis want to have control over their own destinies, the longer the US wait, the more resentful the iraqis wil become and the more difficult for the US to truely hand over power.

keep guessing. sooner or later u’ll ran out of names.:p 😉
