Executions! Yay!

BBC NEWS | Asia-Pacific | Australian executed in Singapore

Nguyen Tuong Van, 25, of Vietnamese descent, was hanged at Changi prison despite repeated pleas for clemency from the Australian government.

He was convicted three years ago of carrying nearly 400g (14 ounces) of heroin at Singapore airport while travelling from Cambodia to Australia.

US carries out 1,000th execution

Kenneth Boyd, a convicted killer, was put to death by lethal injection in North Carolina for the murder of his estranged wife and her father in 1988.

He was given three drugs - one to put him to sleep, another to paralyse him, and a third to stop his heart.

Boyd, 57, has said the death penalty is “nothing but revenge”. Relatives of his victims say he deserves to die.

    You can’t blame ’singapore’.

    It is not without reason that LKY insisted that the chinese maintain a numerical majority over the malays and indians because he knew, as it has been for 2000 years, that the chinese are well-trained in turning a blind eye to anything the government does. They don’t question evils. They just question how they can negotiate through them - even if this means stepping on everyone else.

    The chinese culture trains people into being like the proverbial 3 monkeys. That is why LKY and son brought back the chinese culture in full force, started the chinese elite schools, the speak mandarin campaign, instituted higher chinese, forbade them from substituting other languages for ‘their own’, allowed a few dedicated chinese channels on tv, allows the chinese to discriminate against all races as and when they please in the job market whilst saying that it is none of their business, saturating the population with china citizens and inviting many of them to become singapore citizens, etc, etc, etc.

    These things escapes the world’s attention while the world is unaware that the basis for such nonsense is chinese culture. Of course, atrocities take place in other non-chinese cultures, but all that shows is that atrocities have a few cultural bases - one of which is the mentioned culture. That is why a Chinese Humanitarian is an oxymoron. Chinese civilisation would not have survived intact and unchanging for 2000 years or so if the emperors had not been successful in instituting a culture of apathy and intellectual and humanitarian docility. That is why 2000 years later, this poor mate of ours was led to his death while these people just stuffed their faces with fishballs at their local cafes.
