Regarding the earthquake in China, in which 9000 people died:

Reading the comments below, i was surprised at how the general public felt about this event. no one really sent their condolences, and all they could think of was that there won't be lead toys anymore, and that the communists should go to hell, the chinese people deserved it because they stole all the US jobs, GOD is doing this to them to punish them for being unchristian, Free Tibet, ....blah blah blah.

NINE thousand people! i am from tw and i should probably dislike china more than most of these peopl and yet even I FEEL BAD. just like most people in US or Tw who disagree with their idiot leaders, a lot of the impressions people have of a certain country is usually the wrong doing of the politicians and have nothing to do with its people whatsoever. I personally do not believe that these people deserve to die because of whatever reason these ignorant people listed. And PERSONALLY, i don't think any of the issues concerning tibet has any fucking thing to do with most people who sympathize with them., unless you are from Tibet, or you are half a tibetian...whatever. most people in teh us dont give a fuck about tw and have never heard of it and yet politically and econimically tw is many times more like a country than Tibet ever is and ever will be, and i'm sure even taiwanese Red Cross wouldn't think twice about donating to China.

So i felt compelled to leave a comment on the board in response to the comments i read:

wow i'm reading these comments and i cant believe how IGNORANT and DISGUSTING some of these haters are. I don't have the best impression of China and even I FEEL bad about this tragedy. nine thousand people! New york has that 9/11 event and people talk about it for YEARS! and this is many time that magnitude. you people think that every single Chinese person is guilty of the unemployment and toxic toys in the US and every Chinese person is guilty of the violence in China. well THINK AGAIN! people hate americans jsut as much becuase they think we all agree with what Bush does and we are a bunch of brainless jerks. NO WONDER THE REST OF THE WORLD HATES US! apparently the majority of people on this board have no compassion, and can care less about 9000 people dying in this world, think all communists/non christians can go to hell.
well, maybe you people who are unemployed should stop blaming it on other people, GO BACK TO SCHOOL, or jump into that sink hole in Texas!
