What did they mean by "If u were 1 in a million in China, then there are 1,300 others just like you"????

#9 Maz
China have a population about 1,3 billion people (1,3 billion = 1300 million).
So if you were as rare as one in a million (and living in China) there would have been 1 300 people (in the rest of China) just like you.

And of the 274 babies born in China during this presentation you can bet that most of the girl babies have been drowned in a bucket or just thrown in a trash heap so the parents can try again for a boy.

@# 13 Well gee, fergie the mutt , do you live sheltered in a cave or something? cut-off from the world of knowledge? If you have Google or any other search engine you can find scores of reports on China's one-child policy which was instituted in 1979 by the government to control population growth. Girls are not considered as being worth as much as boys in many Asian countries so tens of thousands of girl babies are tossed-out either as fetuses or as newborns every month. Many are poisoned or drowned and sometimes women who violate the one-child law are imprisoned or tortured.India has the same barbaric attitude towards girl babies and they practice the same methods of eliminating them. Do some reading....and I mean this in a nice way. :)

#34 OldFart/USAnumber1 (yes, we know that you infact is one single stupid entity)

Just because Google gives multiple hits when you search for something really isn't a valid argument to claim that "most of newborn girl babies would have been killed".

Number of Google hits does not equal you being able to use the term "most of them".
When did the raw number of Google hits tell you anything about percentage?

Yes, People's Republic of China have/had a problem with newborn girl babies being killed after birth, but I sincerely doubt that the number og Google hits allows you to generalize an entire country with over 1,3 billion people.

If you had been outside your own little bubble and actually visited People's Republic of China you would have know that China is almost more modern/western that your own little piece of shit country.

It's not like America is fucking perfect! :P
Americas debt is increasing with $3.88 billion every single day! And you thought 1,3 billion Chinese people were scary.. :D

40 Posted 391 days ago by Oldfart

@# 39 So if it is only half or one third of the girl babies that are killed it will be alright with you? Whether you go to Google , Dogpile , or any other search engine you will find many reports and articles done by many different human rights groups from all over the world concerned with this problem. The US has been trying to convince the Chinese gov to end the one child rule but the Chinese don't really listen to anyone else.
It is sad that you minimize the horror of this by talking 'percentages'. Are you from China? Perhaps that would explain things. :(

Thank you for dissing my home :)
There is no good excuse for the Chinese government making parents murder their children.
It is a very sad and evil thing to force upon people.
Of course, many people murder of their own will when an unborn child is aborted,
Abortions/murders happen in many countries around the world, including the US and India.
It is safe to say that India, the US, and China all have one common practice: murdering unborn babies. :(

@#44 Who said anything about moral high-ground? I am not THE US,but I speak for myself and millions of others who find the accepted practice of infanticide detestable."Isn't it better that a small number of girls are killed than every single girl?" I think zero girls killed would be better. The US has it's own ugly practice of allowing abortions but the killing of the infant after it is born is considered first degree murder.
"America has a tradition of school shootings.. But you don't see me claiming that it's common practice in every High School!" Boy are you grasping at straws now. School shootings are not an accepted practice in the US or anywhere else but I have read where Finland has had two mass school shootings in recent memory. These random killings are the work of disturbed minds,not accepted behavior. See the difference????

"These random killings are the work of disturbed minds,not accepted behavior."
Exactly!
How do you know for a fact that killing girl babies isn't an old practice which every "non-disturbed" person in China finds horrible?
Americans had an old practice of killing Native Americans.. But that stopped (to some degree) some point in history as well didn't it?

My point: You seem to believe that killing girl babies is something that everyone in China does without thinking twice about it. When I know for a fact that such a thing is a thing of the past (yes, unlike you I've actually been to China.. And lived there for over 10 months).

Isn't it funny how the tables have turned on you?
I've seen dozens of people showing you articles about how fucked up your own goverment/country is, but you just blow it off with "that's just because you believe everything you read in the liberal media".
Are we supposed to believe articles when you deliver them, but still allow you to discard them as rubbish when we show them to you?

You obviously believe in articles that fits in with your view of every other country, but you fail to believe the articles when they shit on your own country.

Keep living your way like that.. Ignore everything bad around yourself and believe everything else that reflects bad on others (and thereby making yourself feel better about yourself and your country)..

Well, i dont think this should be given much credit.It contradicts itself, and a lot of it is just buzz wordy cliche.
"using technologies that havnt been invented yet" is a paradox.
as is "to solve problems that we dont know are problems yet".
You cant solve a problem until you know its a problem, otherwise its not a problem, and you are not solving it.
It also says that the internet took 4 years to reach 50million market audience, and then says in 1984(30 years after it was created) there were only 1000 internet devices.

"we are living in exponential times" does not mean anything. its just words put together to sound like something impressive. "the singularity is about to explode"-stargate sg1, is in a similar vein.

Seriously, its like some guy got a fact sheet and decided that future "facts" could be fabricated using the information. Was anyone else a little insulted? it feels like a 10yr old has tried to explain computers to me from what theyve learned from a cartoon.
