Um, how did they do that? Last I heard, Deng wasn't even in power anymore.

May we never forget those who were killed, exiled, or imprisoned. Had I been there, I would have joined the man on front of the tank.

There was a special on CNN regarding Tianamen square. It reported that unfortunatly, the new generation of Chinese do not have the urge for freedom they once did. This was attributed in the report to the fact that the ecconomy is doing very well in comparison to 10 years ago, the econonmy is doing very well.

Indeed, may it never happen again. But I fear in China in never will happen. While the government would still be there, the protestors would not.

Movements Come; they go
Radical Thought never dies
A small leaf floats down

Whence are hippies now?
A frog leaps from leaf to leaf
Our time will once come

The thin spring vapours
Neo-liberalism is
Soon dead, I sure hope

Capitalism is
What keeps evil china up
The scent of a deer

I would have liked to join the protest. But in the tank. I mean, the students wanted ridiculous things, like freedom, and their demostration might have caused more violence, so it was best to squish them then.
