Only 774?

China arrests 774 in product crackdown

Surely it will take more to really put the pressure on.

Could we maybe arrest family members so the pressure encompasses their entire social support network? You know, kind of like Muhammad Yunus and the Grameen Bank, but with real teeth.

Are summary executions still legal in China? Because if there was anything that warranted the kind of pressure that a good old fashioned hanging offers, this would seem to be the case.

What I don't understand is why is China and the world going so easy on these merchants of death? Do we want our children to die of dog food poisoning or dangerous toy parts? Are we serious about ending this threat once and for all or not?

I don't think 774 is going to do it. I'm thinking more like a 100,000. For starters. And I'm thinking that the quicker we cut their throats, the surer that these murdering capitalist pigs will get the message.

I just don't think we'll ever be serious about this threat until the blood is flowing up to our armpits. And even then, I'm pretty sure there will still be someone out there threatening to kill my children.

Thank God for the Chinese government. It's nice to know that someone knows how to take charge and force some change on the world.
