      Well, they do have a lot of petty thieves.

          Is the alternative not to assume the ostrich position and be dictated to? Who polices the police etc etc.

              By the way Lucy, what about opium issue, wasn't that done by the British Empire in China? If anything the Chinese are not going to be keen to be preached by the country that actually invaded them for a long time using stuff like opium.

                  And I am sure if we go back far enough every country/empire has done it's share of wrong things.

                  However, what matters to me right here, and what I can do something about is this. Simple.

                    It helps feed their self-righteousness. They feel they've done a "good thing" without actually getting off their backsides and doing something.

                    Is Tibetan culture worth preserving?
                    Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

                      The Chinese don't think so...

                      Yeah, I know.
