When frustration eventually erupts after so long being suppressed, it seems it often does it without any rationality. The people who were killed or injured did not deserve it. The perpetrators should not have done it, but nor should they have been driven to it.

I hope that those who are the cause of the frustrations that resulted in this tragedy will reflect and consider addressing the causes rather than just clamping down even harder.

I guess that it's an interesting exercise (Googling the maps) but are people really expecting to view a recording from one of the many video cameras in the area?
I should like to learn more about the two farmers killed, and 41 injured police, in Menglian on Saturday, which is becoming an even wider problem.
Finally, is anyone surprised by all this?

STAGED terror just like 9/11, Madrid and London. All an excuse for the pseudo-commie fags to get even more fascist. No??? Really? why would a legit freedom fighter target a bus and not a pig... I mean police station? or government building?

can we get the chinese name of the streets so we could locate them on google map? a mash-up showing the location of the explosions would be great...

I got a 6 month F multi entry inside china, but its still a pain, i must have lucked out, b/c everyone else i know has only got 2 or 3 months tops. I got it from a friend who owns a factory with fairly good guanxi, and i also have a late residency registration on my record when i was a student in Xiamen Uni.
So it is still possible. another person i know got only 3 month visa from the same method i did, and she has been living in china for over 6 years.

Out here on the west side of town where the second explosion occurred, the roads are still all cordoned off by the police. I could only get about 200 meters close to the site of the second explosion at Chang Yuan Lu. The authorities had already towed the damaged bus away by 11 a.m.

Chapter One Gin & Gin Party

Free bottle of gin if you get more drunk than Daneel (hospital attendance not mandatory but serious competitors should reserve beds)

The media should be exposing the foolishness and corruption of the officials that initiated this movement. Kunming is planting 800,000 trees while people in Sichuan are living in tents? They bring these trees from the place where they were living and purifying the air into the city where they die. It's not helpful to the environment.
