When China displaces entire neighborhoods

[Royal Oak Rog]

closes businesses,leaves countless people hung out to dry, wasn't something like the killing of a tourist bound to happen? And I'm not sure what the motive in the killing was, but I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't more attacks. This is what you get when you smash the little people like an ant just so you can prove to the rest of the world that your totalitarian country is not a international joke.

Here are a few other examples of the totalitarian regime:

As a Communist country, China has laws and regulations that most people in the United States -- a free country -- would consider to be totalitarian and heavy handed, if not downright evil. As this article describes, China's laws include the following:
1. Chinese police authorities may conduct surveillance and searches against its citizens without showing any probably cause of suspected criminal activity.

2. Chinese agents can conduct "sneak-and-peek" searches of the houses and businesses of ordinary citizens without prior notice, and without the searches having any chance of being challenged.

3. The Chinese government may record and track all its citizens' business and personal records, including library books read by each person, medical records, counseling and psychiatric files, credit reports and other information.

4. When the Chinese government demands this data from people like librarians or medical record administrators, the government does not have to obtain any warrant whatsoever or even show probably cause in requesting the records. Furthermore, the people forced to provide such records are prevented, under threat of prosecution, from telling anyone.

Sounds bizarre, doesn't it? This is the sort of stuff that only a truly totalitarian government could dream up.

Now, allow me to apologize in advance because I've just deceived you. Everything you've just read isn't the law in China at all: it's United States law, and it was passed under the Bush Administration as part of the Patriot Act.
