Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 68684693 United States 03/23/2015 11:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | New editor Doug Tsuruoka's introduction piece includes his grandfather's personal recollection of Chinese nationalists slaughtering the "men, women and children" of the Chinese Communist Party. Wow. [link to atimes.com] No offense, but this rings a bit like "ISIS beheading white Christian babies!" Not feeling good about this. I think we know who the new "investors" are. |

In the morning light, he saw the huge wooden carts roll slowly past his hotel piled 20 feet high with the bodies of men, women and children – all wearing the blue worker uniforms and red armbands of the CCP. It’s an image he recounted that has always haunted me. [link to atimes.com] ---- Really? All the "CCP mean, women and children" were in uniform in bed? What next. Sigh. |
