Yang Jia was from Beijing. He became famous after he attacked a Shanghai police station and killed many police officers. There were many rumors why he did this and many Chinese people felt sympathetic to his crime. His trial was very controversial and many people think it was unfair.
He was executed on 2008 November 26.
From KDS:
Under a certain bridge in Beijing, a graffiti portrait suddenly appears that looks a little familiar…it looks like the the recent “Big Knight Yang”…
Yes, it is the “Big Knight.”
Comments from KDS:
It appears to be everywhere in Beijing.
What is that on the wall in the back?
The thing on that wall in the back looks like “UU” [condom]…
KILL THE COP
I am reminded of Che Guevara. Is this going to be printed on t-shirts in the future and sold around the world?
Already a part of history….
Yet another business opportunity. Once the weather gets hot, it can be made into a t-shirt…
Beijingers are really bored.
I think the original NetEase topic was deleted/censored or “harmonized.” Most people who know about the Yang Jia incident probably can guess why graffiti and comments about Yang Jia throughout Beijing, China’s capital, may not be good for the government or police.
I think maybe the KDS topic is still available only because there were not many comments so maybe the moderators did not do anything because it was buried by new post topics quickly. Websites will usually only worry if a lot of people pay attention to something.
From GWSJ BBS:
Let all Chinese who have suffered unjust treatment put on clothing printed with Yang Jia’s portrait and the words: “If you do not give me a statement, then I will give you a statement.”
