China and US are Polar Opposites on Gun Control

https://www.cnn.com/2021/09/20/china/gun-control-us-china-mic-intl-hnk/index.html

CNN

Last week, a 47-year-old man stormed into a law firm in China’s Wuhan city and shot dead a lawyer who he had “some disputes with,” according to Chinese state media. He then stuffed his gun, just under 20 inches (50 centimeters) long, into a tennis racket bag and left.

The fatal shooting shocked many in China, which has some of the world’s strictest gun control laws – so much so, that some people thought initial reports were about yet another American shooting.

“When my friend told me about the shooting, I thought it was the United States,” one person wrote on the Chinese social media platform Weibo. Another user wrote, “Using a gun to kill people in China? Am I watching an American movie?”

That disbelief widely reflects how rare gun crime is in China – in contrast to it being a daily reality in the US.

……..

If folks would look objectively at things there are lessons to be learned from most places where humans live.

Defamation payouts by Media should not permitted as a tax deduction.

Not sure if medical corporations get taxpayer subsidized medical gross negligence payouts, for such things removing the wrong lung….but where is the public welfare purpose??

Isn’t the tax code designed to encourage certain activity and discourage others, all in the public for the public and general interest? How is encouraging defamation by a media company in the public interest?

Where is the Bill in Congress?? Seems ripe for debate at least.

Dominion and Smartmatic, do not settle!

Now is the time to answer to a higher calling! Expose the Big Lie for the world to witness!

You are dealing with people of very very bad faith, and zero morals and whose only goal is the power and profit! That much is crystal clear.

Clear as why a corporate Officer, the top dog, being left off the discovery list!

Leave it to the People of the Jury to deliver Justice. They will…if only judging by the temperament of the Judge who has seen the mountain of very very bad to the Defendants defence evidence. And made rulings thumping down every foxy attempt at lying some more. To the Judge!?

Jury going to hear about that!

The manufacturing and feeding of the Big Lie being exposed in all its monstrosity will serve you well, People of Dominion and Smartmatic…and will serve the nation and the world!

Want the money? Or want the money AND the gratitude of a nation in turmoil?

Most important tort litigation decision in American law in history!

It shouldn’t even be that hard decision!

THIS IS THE WAY!

Head of Chinas Central Bank....Meets With USA Central Bank Head.

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/head-of-chinas-central-bank-meets-powell-and-calls-for-stronger-cooperation-with-u-s-50054b3f?mod=home-page


Heads meeting and talk and agreeing. It’s a good thing, Chamberlain and the times then being an exception.

Cooperation and understanding better than war, to most nations citizens who prefer one over the other…

Didn’t know about the central bank assisting with Sri Lanka debt relief, and others.

The world news that doesn’t make it as news in the world of Western media is an ocean of information.

Mass Hypocrisy Nation: Guns for foreign adventures, trillion a year, but less Gun Love domestically?

Get rid of the Gun Love hypocrisy, then maybe can get rid of a few of the 400 million Guns, and the Gun loving military loving mentality that leads to nothing can be done about it pessimism.

Laws written can be unwritten and rewritten. but impossible until the mentality is undone.

Defund the military, Refund the People!

Macron Counting on XI to "bring Russia to its senses"

Source: BBC

On Thursday afternoon, Mr Macron was treated to an elaborate military parade in Beijing, before entering closed-door talks with Mr Xi, which Chinese and French officials described as "frank" and "friendly".

Speaking to the press afterwards, Mr Xi said "China advocates for peace talks and seeks a political solution", and called for "rational restraint" from the international community.

He also reiterated that nuclear weapons should not be used in the conflict. Russia earlier this week said it plans to place tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, near the ally's western border with Nato countries.
Mr Macron said "we can't have a safe and stable Europe" as long as Ukraine remained occupied, and that it was "unacceptable" that a member of the UN Security Council had violated the organisation's charter.

The French leader struck a cordial, and at times warm, tone in his speech, often turning to Mr Xi during the press conference and addressing him directly. It stood in contrast to Mr Xi's impassive delivery to the press.

The French President struck cordial, warm, tone. America and its corporate media, needs to stop the hate rhetoric and do the same, it’s a pivotal time to make these decisions…new Cold War or new Friend?

The State of New York v. D. Trump. Any charges.

I know which side my bets are on, even blindfolded.

https://malialaw.com/cortlandt-manor-westchester-ny-the-process-of-indictment-in-the-state-of-new-york-lawyer_pa18363.htm

Interviewer: What does it mean to be indicted?

Glen Malia: An indictment is interesting. An indictment, which the news media always besmirches everyone's reputation when they've been indicted. An indictment in New York State is merely a formal felony charge. New York State … and I briefly touched on this. We haven't gone into yet. Crime is broken down into serious crimes which are felonies and are punished by state prison sentences. They're broken down into A, B, C, D and E Felonies. Then you have less serious. Felonies can only be tried. You can only have a trial on a felony in a county court or Supreme Court, an upper level court. Then you have misdemeanors, which are less serious crimes. The maximum sentence on a misdemeanor is one year in county jail. You can't go to state prison, and those are broken down into the A and B category, and those trials, outside of New York City, would either be tried in a city court or a town or a village court.

……..

What it means to be indicted on multiple felony charges with compelling evidence!? And the full force of State prosecution after an intensive investigation and indictment process, where my trusted accountants and very trusted lawyer stripped of privilege immunity spilled ALL the hidden magic beans…all focused on…me??

To me it means I am in deep deep shit!
