we live in fear here also


By commenting on the event I can guarantee that this will be censored. I can enjoy that small bit of power--a day late and a dollar short. It's been a while that public demonstrators were shot on orders of the government in public. We prefer to keep  massacres in this country more personal--nuts with guns, etc...

The Chinese Party (I think we can dispense with the "communist" part--it's out of date) exists to survive. The people in positions of power seem to be working hard to achieve the right balance of bread, circus, repression, and patriotism. Without free speech, however, there can be no quality control at any level of society.
