This is obviously a deputy to the National People’s Congress. There isn’t even a single stretched Lincoln limousine, Taiwanese people are so unfashionable.

腾讯网友:

The biggest gangster is the government.

腾讯自贡市网友:

What is good~~~what is evil~~~
I feel this kind of person have the support of the people more than certain or even the majority of government officials.

腾讯南宁市网友:

When our village head passed away, the scene was far more magnificent than this…

腾讯莆田市网友:

Black and white [evil and good], is something people decide, what is white and what is black, to judge a person China has an old saying: Don’t pass judgment until the end.
A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, every profession has its leaders.
The winner becomes king and the loser the invader [winners write history].
Don’t go judging the dead, as big brother is also a person, and all people are the same. Everyone asks why is there black society [organized crime], but clearly there is a reason for their existence. A business.
Big brother, rest in peace!

腾讯上海市网友:

You think there are some good people in Taiwan’s criminal gangs? How many people in these gangs aren’t supporters of Taiwanese independence~? When the day comes that the People’s Liberation Army goes over, those stabbing the People’s Liberation army in the backs will definitely be the island’s gangsters, and at that time, the first organizations to be destroyed by the People’s Liberation Army will definitely be this bunch of dark and swarthy bastards.

腾讯郑州市网友:

What is this promoting? Black and white? Evil and good? Ugly and beauty? Can the news reporters please stop “educating” the next generation like this! Cupware

腾讯网友:

All of you little hooligans/thugs in society right now, take a good look: This is your example. If you’re going to be a gangster, then at least achieve something. If you can get to this level, I will respect you. But if you are a gangster that only know how to bully women and children, then I think sooner or later you will go back to the countryside and be a farmer!

腾讯山东省网友:

Look at how low key Taiwanese little brothers are, their hairstyles not as wild as mainland students.

腾讯邯郸市网友:

Garbage, the mainland would never allow this kind of scene to happen.

腾讯江苏省网友:

By 2012, everyone will die.

  1. A big shoot funeral. Široko

  2. It’s cool – like something out of FOR A BETTER TOMORROW.

    Is China smack gonna run an article on all the student school stabbings lately? 2 in two days? What the hell is happening?
    http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/30/world/asia/30china.html?ref=world

  3. wow, must be alot of underground fighting now.

  4. “… who died last month of liver can­cer will have a funeral pro­ces­sion on the 26th …”

    Hmm, they waited quite long before making the funeral…

  5. Nothing compared to the Shanxi coal mine owner children’s wedding procession.

    And as far as mafias go, I think if the PLA ever invaded Taiwan, they would immediately go over, join the triads and co-exist together happily ever after

  6. 好大的排场!大哥一定觉得特别有面子!

  7. What kind of crime was he involved in? I’m surprised the government even allowed this to happen.

  8. Now thats a lot of suits!

  9. All those black suits, like another quentin tarantino flick.

  10. Good month for selling dark suits.

  11. Silly Face? Was he killed by Spiderman or Batman?

  12. That was bad ass. He must have touched allot of hearts, filled allot of pockets, did plenty of good to get this much love in public. A horrible crime boss would never get this much respect if even most of those people were his employees. Im going to research his legacy and see what the hype is all about.

  13. Dare I? Dare I?? SOfa!!!!!ahahahah!!!!

  14. Am I missing something here? What sort of crime are these people in that would attract so much respect? I mean I know they have brawls in Taiwanese parliament, but is it so bad that the people have resorted to criminal organizations assuming de-facto power in order to keep order?

  15. If that happened in mainland,we call it “mass incident(群体性事件)”.

  16. Hey, I’ve submitted this very cool post to digg:

  17. haha hes dead game over

  18. I just hope ODB got a funeral like that.

  19. “You think there are some good people in Taiwan’s criminal gangs? How many people in these gangs aren’t supporters of Taiwanese independence~?

    Yeah, right. If this guy even knew a little bit about Taiwanese gangs he would know that the links between the pro-reunification KMT and the Bamboo Union are strong, hell, Ma Yingjiu has attended the wedding’s of gang members, and Jason Hu himself attended the above funeral.

    Taiwan gangsters pro-independence? Give me a break.

    • Technically the founding of the KMT itself is closely tied to the triads and secret societies (Tongmenghui), not to mention Chiang was practically a gangster in his early days, so yeah pretty much speaks for itself.

  20. everyone lining up for their bimmer rides. only to be punked & have their asses walkin. lol

  21. From another website:
    “Taichung Mayor Jason Hu (胡志強) was among the mourners, saying his attendance was a sign of gratitude after Lee left NT$60 million (US$2 million) for charities in his will. “I felt I had to come to express my thanks,” Hu told reporters. “When the man left this world, he used this way to show his concern for society.”

    Hmm… I wonder what charities…

  22. FUCKING HELL?

    Those shitstains should be Nanjing’d, burned and buried alive like the animals they are, while being broadcast live on TV to state an example for all criminals.

    I dont care what he ‘did good’ to the people there. Organized Crime is the scum of the entire humanity.
    Fucking shit, I soo hope that the PLA invades and errect a batshit insane stalinist/maoist dictatorship – in a totalitarian dictatorship, there’s only one legal criminal: The dictator himself. Which is good.

    This also should apply to the numerous south american countries who are suffering under drug-lords and other criminal organisations – proclaim state of war, end the rule of law, shit on their human rights and fucking kill them all including their families and even their dogs! This is the only way to get rid of the scource of open societies.

    • The only difference is that the CCP gangsters are much more controlling, kill many more people, and do it all under one flag.
      Hongjian…relax…go collect your 50cents and buy a lollipop.

      • The differnce is; the CCP gangsters own the whole country and jealously makes sure that noone else can have it. As long as everything is under one flag, i’m consent with it.

        hence i said; in a totalitarian dictatorship, there’s only one legal criminal: The dictator himself. Which is good. – since he holds everything together.

        thx. I received my 50 mao. but inflation drove the market-price of a lollipop quite high.

  23. i think hes the leader of that taiwan san luen gang from young and dangerous

  24. as a wise man name Frank Lucas would say:
    the loudest one in the room is the weakest one in the room

  25. taiwan is so similar to japan in so many ways. even their gangsters look alike lol. There are so many japanese influence in taiwanese music, language, culture and politics.

  26. “You think there are some good people in Taiwan’s criminal gangs? How many people in these gangs aren’t supporters of Taiwanese independence~? When the day comes that the People’s Liberation Army goes over, those stabbing the People’s Liberation army in the backs will definitely be the island’s gangsters, and at that time, the first organizations to be destroyed by the People’s Liberation Army will definitely be this bunch of dark and swarthy bastards.”

    I think this guy has it all wrong. Gangsters in Taiwan will be the first waiting to ketou to the CCP, and waiting for their official registration into the Party as “businessmen”. Since most of these kinds of groups were founded on the mainland and fled with Old Man Jiang many of them have been waiting for a chance to sell out their new “country” now that the Communists won’t take away their money and power. They will then join the PLA in harvesting organs from all the Taiwan “rebels” and selling them to rich scum in other countries.

  27. “We hang the petty thieves, and appoint the great ones to public office.”

  28. what a nerd, something tells me your a tattle teller. Ur one of those guys who reports porn links to the govt right? f off douche.

  29. I suspect the police is on the mob’s payroll. Yes, it would have made sense to quietly plant an IDE and blame it on Al-Qaeda.

  30. Don’t use Google Chrome or safari for copying text with soft hyphen, it behaves stupid in this point. I hope this will be fixed soon.

  31. okay internet tough guy. lol, are you trying to call me out for some spelling errors…. another typical trait of a message board nerd.

    thumbs up to you! Now you can go tell the governing body of spelling and grammar that you know someone who misspelled a couple of words. On your bike you go!

  32. Dilladonuts done got schooled by GuoBao, got burned by GuoBao! What Dilladonuts gonna do? Playground fights Caught on Tape featuring Baby Buster!

  33. If movies have taught us anything is that mobsters don’t kill at funerals, only baptisms.
