sunman 0 #1 March 13, 2003 So The Rolling Stones are going to play in China this year for the 1st time ever. The Chinese government has allowed this, but with the stipulation that they can't play any songs that include a reference to sex. WTF?! No "Brown Sugar", "Satisfaction", "Beast of Burden", the list goes on and on. What a bunch of dumb fucks. I say we lay off Iraq and N. Korea and bomb China. Oh, and before anybody gets their panties in a bunch, I'm not saying anything against Chinese people, just their fucked up govt. And although my post is an exaggeration and an overreaction, I still believe in freedom of speech, even for British people visiting China. -Sunman Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rgoper 0 #3 March 13, 2003 while your certainly entitled to your opinion in your own country, it is generally considered "good manners" to follow other countries laws, traditions and requests when visiting that particular country. generally this is insisted upon. this is a well known fact amoung world travelers. the phrase "ugly americans" was coined for these american behavioural traits. besides the rolling stones know the drill! --Richard-- "We Will Not Be Shaken By Thugs, And Terroist" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebecca 0 #4 March 13, 2003 China's attempts to keep their population under control has probably resulted in a billion or so very horny people. Seems like a misguided attempt to keep a baby boom from happening nine months after the concert... I mean who can listen to "Satisfaction" without getting all hot and worked up in a never-mind-I-don't-care-about-birth-control-let's-get-it-on-right-now kind of way?? you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?
