And then people wonder why most Americans pose as Canadians when abroad?!

Invade and convert to democracy! Oh, wait...no oil reserves. Carry on, China.

Not that this is any kind of explanation of this attack, but there are a lot of chinese who have been whipped up into a sort of anti-U.S. nationalist hysteria. It's always been safe for americans to visit most parts of China, but I always wonder how all this kind of tension gets released.

Don't forget about the other injured person in this story. Their female Chinese tour guide.

What we need is better jackass control, so comments like yours could never happen on Gothamist.

It's just like I always say: Those Chinese need better knife control. If they didn't allow people to own knives, this would have never happened.
