School children were among a crowd of hundreds who watched the execution of two drug dealers.
The criminals were sentenced to death and immediately marched to a firing squad as part of a government crackdown.
The move was designed to act as a deterrent to the children, who had been organised to watch the sentencing rally.
Damn. Oh snap. I’m not for the death penalty but in many countries people think crime X should be punished by death. That can vary from country to country but usually it’s crimes against children. China thinks drug dealing is one of them. They don’t screw around. During one trip to China I was in Beijing and someone approached me selling fake rolexes. I took a look but they weren’t even good knockoffs so I passed. The dude then made a smoking gesture and said “opium”. I never tried opium but it made me think of the opium dens I’ve seen on TV where people smoke the long pipes with the hot babes around them and they seem very happy. Then the scenario of a Chinese courtroom followed by either life in a Chinese prison or execution made me quickly say no ,after thinking of the opium dens for a few nanoseconds. Duerte in the Philippines has an open season on drug dealers, Duerte himself says he threw a drug dealer out of a helicopter and Thailand is executing meth dealers. They must think it’s crazy that we are legalizing weed.
I did read there is a opiate problem in Beijing. A few years ago the government opened some methadone clinics but the junkies are scared to go. They fear being scouted out by the Chinese government. Anyway, these public executions are very popular in China. If they do then in stadiums do they sell snacks
