Idiotic California law says ‘cannot sell it for food’. Used to be at least good for pet food. Better than the poisoned pet food from China. They are too big to just bury. (What a waste of good protein). Too polluting and expensive to burn. Would some of these bleeding heart animal lovers like to take on the care and maintenance of these unwanted horses?

What is your opinion on China killing the man resposible for the food/drug contamination?
Here is the article. He was bribed into looking the other way and passing food and drugs that killed people. Do you think killing him was a good idea? Do you think America should have more laws like this? Do you think killing someone in general is unjustified?

Should we help China?
I love China, its history may not be as vast as my own countries however its history is incredible. They had many beautiful clothings and buildings, and was so civilised at the time. I love its food too, however now China is having many problems with pollution, population and its unstable situation. China is suffering so badly with these problems its corrupted the government, I reckon countries currently powerful such as America and Britain should lend China a helping hand and should advise it and help it.
I think if countries did this for China, they could get back on track, reasonable laws on birth could be given and soon its population would be normal and suitable. I reckon if rich countries helped China with renewable energy and advised it on Nuclear instead of Coal that its smog would clear and I also reckon it would improve the government.
What do you think?
Sino, I do not mean to anger you. I just feel so strongly for the chinese, even the greatest of warriors must take help from the greatest of men.
I am from Britain, and how do I make you sick, because I want to help and have ideas on how I can, I am not a guy who sits in his sofa and just watches war commence, war that savages life and wrecks civilisation.
Yangmi, the British have been here since 6,000 BC. We arrived here more than 2,600 years ago.

China or no China?
My future mother in law says that I should put China on my registry. Well I read in a magazine that alot of people now a days are not using china, they are just getting nice white dishes and everything and dressing it up with flowers. China would be nice, I would rather get other things besides that. What do you think?

How do you feel about the recent milk scare in China?
It made me wake up and realize I never thought about U.S. food companies having their products made in China. It makes me upset knowing that the quality and cleanliness is not held to the same standards it would be if it was made in the U.S. I feel our country is setting a high standard for companies that chose to produce in the U.S. because it is more healthy, yet they know products made in China are not held to that standard but because it is not made here, they turn their face the other way. To top it all off, have you ever tried looking to see where your food is made? Most of the time it is not listed. Usually it will just say something like “packaged” or “distributed” from somewhere in the U.S. but that doesn’t mean it was produced here. In fact, I bet when it says that, it is made in China. I know they just passed a law requiring companies to put where the product is made on the package but there are a lot of loop-holes. personally, I feel like the government is choosing to ignore my well-being because there not guilty of anything if the product is made elsewhere and they are taking away my freedom of choice by not requiring ALL product list where it is made.

Illegals breaking the law?
Here is what I don’t understand. There is all this outcry about how illegals broke the law, and how they should be punished for it. What I don’t understand is why people don’t realize is that everybody if put in the right circumstance WILL BREAK THE LAW. For example if you couldn’t provide enough food to fill your kids bellies, you will steal. If you couldn’t even hope that your kids could get a better life, you will do whatever you could to change that reality.
I’m not trying to make excuses for them, but I think people are so angry at change that they’ve stopped being rational.
You can’t draw a line in the sand and say on one side is opportunity and on the other is hopelessness and expect that people won’t try to cross. The great wall of china couldn’t keep out 12th century mongols…the great wall of mexico won’t keep out 21st century mexicans.
It’s a reality not just an excuse. I realize they broke the law, but that law stood in the way of hope. In the end of the day, if I was born in a Mexican or Central American village, I’d do everything I could to get here.
Like I’ve said I recognize they broke the law, the problem is we are unjustly demonizing these people.
I don’t think there is a large amount of racisim. I do think it a general fear of change. Psychologically people rather things stay the same, the way they are comfortable with. Things have been changing pretty quickly the last couple of years, and immigrants (as they have throughout our history) are easy scapgoats.
Also from a purely darwinian economic point of view, these are the people we should want MOST. It be nice if they were more highly educated, but these are the most industrious, the risk takers, the ones who will work hardest to get ahead of their respective countries. Food for thought.
What I really think would be the best solution is something close to the senate bill. Tighten up the boarder and punish workers of illegals in a similiar way as the house proposes. Provide a guest worker program. Guest worker program is by state, each state determining how many workers they need for a 3 year period. Those workers pay taxes, must establish a physical address, and stable employment. Those looking to hire these workers would advertise as such so that people may have work quickly after entering. A certain number of day labors would also be allowed. After the 3-years are up they would have to reapply, whether from the US or their home country. Preference is given to those who have already “served” more terms. Those who have served 4 terms or more would be given a legal residency option for spouse and any children, as long as all members have stayed out of legal trouble. Also give credit to those who have been here as illegals equal to the time they’ve been here.
To: fl0wergir1_usa…now you are just being dumb. There are different level of crime based off what you did and intent. For example there is involuntary manslaughter, manslaughter, murder 2, and murder 1. Each is a crime, but punished very differently based off intent. These people have good reason to have done what they have done. That’s worth something.

Would you prefer to live in China or US?
Totalitarian Country versus Western Democracy
Both countries contain wealthy people.. infact there are bigger real estate tycoons in China than there is in the US.
How about freedom and human rights issues?
Just walking around in the United States you have to careful of someone pulling a gun on you due to your stupid laws.
US dominates China in violence and crime rate. As for pollution US still wins this despite having 1/6th the population of China.
What about life expectancy? well due to your gun laws you would probably get shot before you even reach the age of 50 let alone at 21 years of age.
How about hygiene and health issues? lol… I won’t even go there…
If you don’t want a negative opinion of your country then change your damn gun laws. Citizens are not the infantry and do not need guns.
Don’t vote for any president who won’t force the removal of all guns. .
everyone who posts USA probably has a gun or several guns in their household
ok I’ve heard the spitting in China..
but people just spit in US too? its a foul habit I agree but not as foul as littering and other things
ohh interesting now I know why guns will always be allowed in the US.
So disarming people of weapons is removing their rights to violen.. cough I mean freedom..
No wonder the crime rate is so high there.. and you can’t have a constructive debate without being violent or resorting to name calling.
Vote for a president with a ‘brain’… (this excludes the Clintons)
which leaves either Ron Paul or Obama.
