Haha. How dare they buy the financial products that we sell to them!
Seems reasonable for their government to question our government for openly supporting what are, in their opinion, rebels and dissidents. Obviously Saltzman doesn't have much real international impact, but China probably feels like they need to be seen being disproving.
Let's put some context to this: China, the country illegally occupying Tibet, illegally drilling for oil in a genocide zone in Darfur and illegally searching for natural gas in Central Asia, now wants to tell the City of Portland it can't celebrate an educational and cultural day.
I say: Hey China, go fuck yourselves, or we'll send Randy BY HIMSELF to visit in June.
It's amazing how many of the Free Tibet people know nothing about the actual facts over there. And instead base their judgment on things China did during the Cultural Revolution forty years ago, instead of things they're doing now.
yeah it is pretty amazing people don't know whats going on there now...cuz it's still pretty ridiculous. the cultural revolution has long passed, but things are still not right. Things didn't get magically fixed overnight and since freedom of speech is still something that's not availble to everyone, i think it's still pretty obvious what the facts are over there. pretty sure people judge they facts over whats happening now, or else we really wouldn't give a flying fuck about it. well illegally referring to colonizing already established countries, its something that's happened in the past in various examples but that doesn't make it any more right.
basic bottom line, we do things our way. chinese laws do not and shouldn't have an effect on us and the way we run our stuff. if you wanna start complying to their rules you better be ready to start shutting up
