Madame Nhu would call it a barbecue.

Oh no. China Communist Government are way, way smarter than Madam Nhu.

They would never call these 9 monks and nun… barbecue.

Their spokesman called these monks as doing “terror act in disguise”.

Basically “terrorist”.

That little girl died today. The full video (that one is edited) is just so awful; you can’t watch it without crying or feeling physically ill. I hope the driver and every person who walked by her is haunted by guilt over their action and inaction.

Interesting culture, one that often assumes that good Samaritans are unlikely; that anybody helping out must be doing so out of a feel of guilt. If anything good comes out of this, it will be a shift in that culture.
