There really aqre no "peasants" in China after the manner of the the "peasants" who lived there before Mao, and the people who go to prison and end up in camps doing slave labor are usually more educated, and very intelligent. Education and intelligence combined are a threat to many governments. Writers often get arrested in China, just for writing.Juli Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263408768438573702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-29792202569102568262012-12-28T20:33:17.697-05:002012-12-28T20:33:17.697-05:00It seems we are to make note of 'fully' si...It seems we are to make note of 'fully' since it has been underlined. I think this is a sham, nit just because saying you fully believe something is like prefacing a statement with, 'do you want the truth?' or 'to be honest,' as if hey, normally I make crap up as I go. I think it is a hoax for the reasons listed above, the letter being written in English as well as the agencies listed/units, etc., I also don't kniw how informed they'd be about who would care and why, plus, I doubt anyone would be thankful for the scrutiny. I am more curious about this Oregonian woman...she's so eager to be in the spotlight. Maybe someone is playing a joke on her due to this known quirk of hers or perhaps she did fabricate it due to recent news. In any case, she wants a little attention and seems as if she's ignorant enough to not understand that not all attention is worth having. (or that she's not smarter than law enforcement, could be a rude awakening.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-66603698195685877222012-12-27T18:42:08.704-05:002012-12-27T18:42:08.704-05:00The note is written in English?

I think there is an "International Human Rights" and "World Health Organization" but regardless seems odd a Chinese Peasant would be familiar with such institutions. <br /><br />Most of the letter was not quoted but the working condition description may not have been exaggerated. But US consumers need their cheap WalMart products so don't expect too much pressure for change. <br /><br />Indentured servitude is a good thing as long as its not in this country. Of course, some of the big government policies are what keeps the US from slipping into something close to it.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Suzie Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-6517016193371814582012-12-27T17:22:55.762-05:002012-12-27T17:22:55.762-05:00This reminds me of an old man that returned money ...This reminds me of an old man that returned money he'd stolen from Sears around Christmas one year.

A lot of people are waiting an hour and a half (in line). People want to do something to do their part to get more guns off the streets."<br /><br />Sgt Lopez also said police would check the weapons handed in, to make sure they are not reported as stolen or lost, and hand them back to their rightful owners if they are.<br /><br /><br />Gunman Adam Lanza killed 26 people at a Connecticut school<br />All other weapons were due to be melted.<br /><br />The success of the scheme in traditionally liberal LA is in contrast to a claim by the world's largest seller of gun supplies that it cannot keep up with demand as orders for assault weapon and high-capacity magazines skyrocket in the wake of the Newtown school shooting.<br /><br />Pete Brownell, president of Brownells, said that in a three-day period the company has sold an "unprecedented" three-and-a-half years' worth of inventory of magazines.<br /><br />Under the buyback scheme in LA, the fact that police were asking no questions was a key incentive. "See that? That's a silencer," said Sgt Lopez, pointing to an assault weapon. "That's illegal. We didn't say anything."<br /><br />Critics of such schemes have questioned their effectiveness, arguing the weapons surrendered tend to be the least likely to be used in criminal activities, such as guns which are old or malfunctioning.<br /><br />In the line of cars, a 51-year-old unnamed man said he was turning in four rifles that belonged to his late father.<br /><br />"The guns have been sitting around, and there's a money incentive, so why not?" he said.<br /><br />Sandra Lefall, 38, said the Connecticut shooting did spur her to turn in a gun.<br /><br />"I'm bringing in a 9mm handgun because I want to get it out of the house, because I have teenage children. I would hate for them to do what that guy in Connecticut did," she told the LA Times.<br /><br />http://news.sky.com/story/1030592/us-guns-for-food-at-drive-thru-after-shootingJohn Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-3206948938417996562012-12-27T09:15:17.482-05:002012-12-27T09:15:17.482-05:00OT
Dylan Redwine Remains Missing Beyond Christmas...OT<br /><br />Dylan Redwine Remains Missing Beyond Christmas Holiday.<br /><br />ecember 27, 2012 12:15 AM EST<br />Missing Colorado boy Dylan Redwine still hasn't been found, and now Christmas time has passed in an event that his family had to experience without him. This holiday season is the first spent without the 13-year-old, who has now been missing for over a month. Sadly, there don't appear to be any investigative updates in the search for the lad, but it's good to see media outlets continue their coverage of this case.<br /><br /><br /><br />"A mother can never prepare herself for the worst case scenario. But, it's not that I haven't thought about it. It's not that I'm immune to it. But I choose to hope for Dylan," Said Elaine Redwine, the mother of the missing child.<br /><br /><br /><br />The mother of the missing teen has been in Vallecito for the past month but is now back home where she awaits answers in her son's case. This is a tough time for the family of Dylan Redwine. Detectives have acknowledged that they have no new leads in the case, and that just further adds to the possibility that this will end up another cold case missing person's story. With no answers and over a month behind her, Elaine Redwine's emotions must be indescribable right now.<br /><br />But what about the father? Mark Redwine wasn't mentioned in the above-cited source—only the boy's mother. Isn't this a tough holiday for the father of the missing teen as well? Elaine Redwine has been publicly critical of the boy's father, accusing him of doing something to him (but what?). Now that Christmas is over, will detectives kick back into gear and find out what happened?<br /><br />http://news.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474981829562John Mc Gowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430624388902099338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-88412802212571983692012-12-27T08:25:35.501-05:002012-12-27T08:25:35.501-05:00the video from 60 Minutes..
