As I tell my young children, I couldn't care less 'who started it'. You made a statement, they are your words. If you can't defend them, it's ok. You made a mistake. It happens.
What made you think I can't defend my statement? I am at my liberty to throw jibes at bigtexxx in my own thread. LOL
Apparently you are. I'm not the one who wants a new thread...and isn't getting it. boo hoo You posted in this thread, can't defend it, now you want to run away. Go ahead.
I say this one last time to you. If you are really interested and serious about the China's prison system vs that of US, you should start a separate thread about it. I'd be glad to join the debate. Apparently you have shown no desire to learn facts and engage in serious discussion, much like bigtexxx, who is just happy to find a surrogate in you to brush off the atrocious Iraqi reconstruction work. I'll not waste my time any more to entertain your incessant silliness. This is the thread about how you and I are getting screwed left and right with our tax dollars going down the drain in Iraq. If you were one of those who elected GWB and supported the Iraq War, the charges laid out in the article on secret contract deals, fraud, ineptitude and shoddy work should've troubled you greatly. China would be the last thing to worry about, if I were you.
What's silly is making a post in a thread, then not defending it. What's silly is making a post in a thread, then arguing that it doesn't belong there. What's silly is demanding someone else to start a thread that you want. And I don't 'worry' about China. I don't like how they treat political prisoners and I think it's also silly to compare political prisoners with gitmos ... and will express such when someone makes this silly analogy, regardless of the thread they post it in.
