they're keeping families of those killed in their homes and away from the site. no public events allowed, of course.

bbc: Chinese police have ringed Tiananmen Square, to prevent people marking the 20th anniversary of the massacre.

Poland in 2009? Free. But full of internet hookers & hackers. And they still love concrete way too much. The fuckers that were the reason World War Two started were the reason the Cold War ended.

China in 2009?...

The way the political thread is going, I really identify with this man. So I looked up his fate. Hopefully the last comment is true.

Identity and fate

Little is publicly known of the man's identity or that of the commander of the lead tank. Shortly after the incident, British tabloid the

Now the other half of the population openly criticizes its government. Usually this dance continues without much thought given to the very miracle that they are allowed to...
