China Criticizes the United States on the 2nd Amendment

via The New American, where they didn't like this one bit.

But in an official report entitled “Human Rights Record of the United States in 2011,” released a day after the U.S. State Department published its findings on mainland China late last month, the communist government blasted the situation in America. "The United States' tarnished human rights record has left it in no state — whether on a moral, political or legal basis — to act as the world's 'human rights justice,'" the regime said in its report, after citing multiple issues it claimed to perceive as human-rights violations. 

“We hereby advise the U.S. government once again to look squarely at its own grave human rights problems, to stop the unpopular practices of taking human rights as a political instrument for interference in other countries' internal affairs, smearing other nations' images and seeking its own strategic interests, and to cease using double standards on human rights and pursuing hegemony under the pretext of human rights,” concluded the Chinese government report, produced by the “State Council Information Office.”

The first alleged “human rights” violations in the United States cited by the communist regime: high crime statistics and reports of teenage bullying. Next on the list — apparently seeking to create the perception of a link with crime — was the Second Amendment. “The United States prioritizes the right to keep and bear arms over the protection of citizens' lives and personal security and exercises lax firearm possession control, causing rampant gun ownership,” the report claimed, citing more statistics.
I guess you could say, it takes one to know one. I happen to agree totally with the Chinese criticism, especially the part about gun rights in The States amounting to a violation of civil rights.I also like the double standard they mentioned about policing the world while our own shop is in disorder.

What do you think? Please leave a comment.

  1. Is this the same commie bastards that like to run over protestors with tanks? I really could care less what some filthy commies think of us anyway.

    Tomorrow is supposed to be a nice day. I think maybe I will shoot my CHINESE made SKS. Its a Norinco.

    From wiki:
    Importations of most Norinco firearms and ammunition into the United States were blocked during the Clinton Administration in 1993 under new trade rules when China's Most Favored Nation status was renewed. Concerns about their use by criminals in inner cities was the main reason put forward for the prohibition. The prohibition did not apply to sporting shotguns or shotgun ammunition however.
    In 1994, some employees of Norinco came under federal investigation from both the FBI as well as the ATF after a successful sting dubbed "Operation Dragon Fire." In May 1996, in what was called "the largest seizure of fully operational automatic weapons in U.S. history,"[8] 14 individuals and an Atlanta, Georgia company were indicted for the unlicensed importation and sale of 2,000 Type 56's into the United States. U.S. Customs agents posing as arms traffickers convinced a group of Chinese arms dealers, including three Norinco representatives, that they were in the market to buy guns for drug rings and street gangs.[9] "The defendants offered the government undercover agents more sophisticated weapons, including hand-held rocket launchers, mortars, anti-aircraft missiles, silenced machine guns and even tanks," said Wayne Yamashita of the U.S. Customs Service.[10] The Customs Service discovered during the investigation that these weapons were bound for Oakland, California street gangs.[11] According to an affidavit signed by two of the undercover agents involved in the investigation, representatives from Norinco offered to sell urban gangs shoulder-held missile launchers capable of downing a large commercial airliner.


    Yeah. Those chicoms are real human rights watchdogs alright.

  2. “The United States prioritizes the right to keep and bear arms over the protection of citizens' lives and personal security and exercises lax firearm possession control, causing rampant gun ownership..” and we're just down right pissed that we can't invade the US. If just the hunters in the Midwest would join together, they would be the WORLD'S LARGEST ARMED FORCE.

    there, fixed it.

    1. That's old news that we talked about on TTAG some months ago. I guess they're pushing it again to sell bras.

    2. Do you believe that the leaders of China are noble individuals who are looking out for the good of the Chinese people? The more you speak, the more insane you look.

      Delete
    3. No country's leaders are concerned about the welfare of their citizens.

    4. Mikeb, the fact that you side with the Chinese leadership on this matter, or on just about any other, is really all we need to know about you, politically speaking. You have established yourself as the friend of tyrants.

      You'll have to decide which side you want to be on, though. You can't support the Occupy movement and the Chinese government at the same time and maintain any kind of sanity.

    5. I agree with the Chinese criticism of the US. What in the fuck does that have to do with supporting them or choosing sides.

  5. "I happen to agree totally with the Chinese criticism, especially the part about gun rights in The States amounting to a violation of civil rights."

    You are a F-ing moron. Would the Tiananmen Square massacre have happened if it's citizens could defend themselves? Or how about the jailing and torture of anyone who speaks out against it's all knowing government. If China's people had weapons they might have freedom right now instead of the oppression you seem to love.

    3. Bill, does maintaining one's citizenship mean he cannot criticize the country? Does it mean he has to believe the government's lies? I thought that's what you liked about our country.

    4. Move to China... speak out against the government....be sure to tell us how that goes for you.

    5. Oh, but Anonymous, that would take all the fun out of it. He's like so many leftists during the Cold War who praised the Communist nations from the safety of the West.

      And Mikeb, I'm not claiming that we're perfect. But if you can't see that this is a typical Chinese action aimed at making us look bad without any cost to them and without asking them to make any real changes in their own system, then you're being duped.

    6. mikeb, I wasn't looking at your criticism of the US, but your phrase Your glorious US of A

    7. You're right that could have been "our glorious."

  6. Anon,
    It's possible that both couuntries are right without being totally right. Saying it's OK for you to do something becasue someone else does it is a pretty poor excuse.

    And it's "F-ing moran" to you.

  7. China criticizes the United States on the 2nd Amendment

    Good, we know we got it right then.

    to stop the unpopular practices of taking human rights as a political instrument for interference in other countries' internal affairs,

    I agree with this part, but not because of how they view our human rights record.

    “…exercises lax firearm possession control, causing rampant gun ownership,”

    Why yes, gun rights do lead to rampant gun ownership.

    1. It is like they think citizen ownership of guns is a bad thing.

    2. The Man from Oregon, Mikeb, and the Chinese leadership have this in common: They can't stand the fact that we have rights that they can't take away.

    3. Greg, you keep saying that lying bullshit about my wanting to take away your rights, but it's just not true.

      I suppose what I actually do say is too difficult for you to dispute, so you have to pump it up first and then act all indignant.

    4. 1. You don't even acknowledge that owning and carrying a gun is a right.

      2. You want so many rules and restrictions that guns would become just art objects to the few people who would be allowed to own them, not practical tools.

      Those two being said, my comment is not a lie.

      Delete
    5. 1. correct.
      2. I want enough rules to disarm about half the idiots who now legally own guns because they are unfit.

  8. This from the government that gives you the coat hanger when they find out you're pregnant with your second. Yeah we should really care what they think about civil rights.

    3. Mike,
      When you say "we" do you mean Italians or Americans?

  9. It's the kind of authoritarian regime that depends on meek subjects like Mike Bonomo.
