I wonder how the U.S. gained it's freedom from the British empire? China suffers from more than just a red "tiger"..it suffers from ignorance and apathy in general. So few Chinese nationals have access to free media or media in general that a large section of the population goes around with it's collective heads in the rice paddy. To assert the students are setting back democratic reform is to imply Paul Revere was a commie. It's a sad note to visualize what happened.. but if we are to blame the essence of the Chinese democratic movemnet.. we should aslo blame ourselves . We had as much power to change the political spectrum as did the students. We sat in the room of laurel resting watching the events take place over an electron tube.. they lived it. It's the height of supreme ignorance to point the finger at the Chinese students and proclaim stupidity. It's also the epitome of a sycophant's blathering if we consider the democratic movement has been set-back in any degree in China. -Sci.ELectronics?
