Freako China doing their thing again

[Laedrun]

WP: China treats Internet 'addicts' sternly - washingtonpost.com Highlights - MSNBC.com

electro-shock and reeducation camp for internet junkies ;p

"DAXING, China - Sun Jiting spends his days locked behind metal bars in this military-run installation, put there by his parents. The 17-year-old high school student is not allowed to communicate with friends back home, and his only companions are psychologists, nurses and other patients. Each morning at 6:30, he is jolted awake by a soldier in fatigues shouting, "This is for your own good!"

Sun's offense: Internet addiction."

crazy fucking communists ;p

They already have. We don't make anything anymore since we buy everything from China. Our manufacturing is on the decline. We can't make a car or a T.V. worth a fuck. Our ecomony now depends on their low cost goods shipped here.

FU Bill Clinton.

Do the US have not the same thing for their misbehaving children?

I remember that Simpsons Episode where Bart is sent to some boot camp style school...

We do that to suspected terrorists!! ZING

[Nikkohung You]

Don't we give china paper in exchange for electronics, paper that is worth what it says because we say so...?

[Laedrun]

I dont see china and the US fighting anytime soon, our economies are too codependent. It'd be like Bill Gates using his billions to create an evil robot army to wipe us all out, neat concept sure... but who would buy his crap if we were gone? Then again, Bill could just be batshit crazy and not care. Oh well, it'd be a lot more interesting than sitting around waiting for glam rock to make a comeback, i guess ;p.

Wikipedia has the details: Boot camp (correctional) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

According to Wikipedia, some of those camps include the 'service' of picking up the child from home:

The typical procedure kids have reported being followed by aggressive and sometimes abusive escort companies include:

If the parents are allowed to wake the child themselves and introduce the child to the escorts, they have to leave the room when they have done that, so they don't become unwilling witness to the confrontation and fight between escort employees and the child.

If the child resists they are shown handcuffs, pepper spray, or sometimes both, and are then told they can do this the easy way or the hard way. However, some companies has a security policy of using handcuffs in every case regardless of the behavior of the child [4].

Many children have reported they were handcuffed and/or pepper sprayed when they resisted or cried.

Reminds me of those camps where parents send their gay kids to turn them straight - sucks to be a minor in the US.

heh but funny how quickly the Texans are with shouting "communists!"

Boot camp is a wee bit different than electro shock therapy.

[Lejina Bloodbath]

You tell that to the kid with the handcuffs and the eyes full of MACE.

Be glad you aren't in China kiddo!

Really? I don't see any important differences here.

Sounds like Physical Violence is also heavily involved.
