Get over it, we all know you are a white collar, hyper intellectual member of the US "literati".

You can't fool us!

So many sufferings in that country and yet we to put them down more and more and more! Didn't we already took them for granted by taking our businesses to be done there for cheap labors so we could profit more? They make fakes but don't we make them as well? Maybe they're just better in making fakes that's why we're sour! How about our government? Do we really have the right to judge their country when we are killing innocent lives in our war? Sorry, but I think this thread is just out of order! No need to ban me since I'm not interested in participating in this forum anymore!

Kel...don't be so hasty to quit

Nobody said about anything banning and I see nothing in your post to warrant a ban.

There is a fine line between what is being posted all over the world about the Chinese and many are crossing it. Sometimes Political activity will get confused with racism.

As TR states, comments made about Chinese people can be crass and blatently xenophobic and it is easy to blame the nation as a whole for the deeds of their ruling power.

I think many here did not mean to upset anybody with their comments. As Bubba has pointed out, many stereotypes are just generic ignorance. If I had a shiny english penny for all the times people have said that the British are tea drinkers with bad teeth, Limeys etc I would be posting on a Patek forum.

Please, these misunderstandings happen...give everybody a chance and I'm sure you'll see that no harm was meant!

Your post made me smile and realize how lucky we are to live in a place like the USA. I have worked in China and have employees from China and if they every made a statement against their country like yours above; well they would not because of the consequences. We are very lucky.

Right, we are fortunate enough but not enough to leave the less fortunate people alone!

Hey, I thought you quit.. Just having some fun with you. I hear what you are saying, but this is not the time or place to discuss. Hell, I can't fix the wrongs in my own family, much less the worlds.
