Quit slagging PG bob. If you don't want something biased to human rights go read fox news.
Now about that installer.... *rubs hands in anticipation.*

"students getting crushed by tanks"? Can you cite this?
I'd like to offer couple references in addition to PBS Frontline's "The Tank Man", where it reported the fact students were allowed to leave peacefully once the troops arrived, and the Chinese government did investigate this, and release casualty figure of 240 some dead (incidentally in-line with our own NSA intel estimate.)
An article by Gregory Clark on pack journalism:
http://mparent7777.livejournal.c...om/
7702519.html
"the so-called massacre was in fact a mini civil war as irate Beijing citizens sought to stop initially unarmed soldiers sent to remove students who had been demonstrating freely in the square for weeks. When the soldiers finally reached the square there was no massacre."
An article by Columbia Journal Review on passive journalism:
http://archives.cjr.org/year/98/...5/
tiananmen.asp
"as far as can be determined from the available evidence, no one died that night in Tiananmen Square.
...
Hundreds of people, most of them workers and passersby, did die that night, but in a different place and under different circumstances."
[Just for reference, throwing molotov cocktail at riot police is a crime in US.]

I dont need to cite it, because im not offering an opinion on what did or didn't happen.
im simply stating what Shi Tao was banged up for. And what he was banged up for, was going on about tanks running people over (along with some other things, though the tank stuff is what presumably nailed him because thats what would have riled the chinese government the most). i offered no opinion on whether or not i thought shi taos sentiments on what happened in tiananmen was accurate or not. theres plenty of material out there that offers that up already.

As far as im aware a lot of the protestors where asleep when the troops arrived and where kept in the Square untill the tanks arrived as some of them hid in the tents and shelters in the square i have no doubt some where run over by Tanks
Tank Drivers have a limited view at best and a human body dont even make a bump as its run over .......
