I do not understand what is shocking about this article, when we are all too aware about what happens in American Black hip hop culture? Perhaps you guys are subconsciously being racist thinking that all Chinese are good and Black people are generally the criminals?

I hate to open everyone’s eyes, but in all societies there will be an underworld. Who do you think collects the debts of credit card companies? The harsh reality is that Government IS mafia.

As for these gangsters pictured in the articles, I sympathize for them – contrary to everyone saying they don’t deserve to live. I think people here do not understand their backgrounds and have no right to judge them. Hidden underneath the lattice of tattoos they are simply kids who have had fewer opportunities than us because life dealt them a bad hand of cards. Everyone needs to find their next meal. Their social predicament has led them down the wrong road, where they have met the underworld who make a living putting the grease in society’s cogs. An oath is an oath and life is cheap, when you are worth nothing. Bankers and lawyers who are seen as morally successful snort cocaine too.

I think you guys need to question capitalism. Capitalism is a good thing, as it get’s everyone out of bed to contribute to society and to keep the cogs of mankind rolling. Drugs, prostitution, human trafficking and racketeering are simply a byproduct of capitalism. These kids are a byproduct of the system, and no one can choose fate.

Let these kids have fun if it means sex with many girls and drugged up to their eye balls in discos, let them have their 15min of fame, let them yield the feeling of power. Let them cry, be scared, be happy, laugh… Why??????????! These kids have only 1 beautiful yet tragic life.

Wake up boys and girls – we don’t live in utopia.

America is worse by far.

These “gangsters” don’t look like shit. I think I can take two or three of these skinny 120 pounders by myself.

Look up the word “bourgeoisie” before you throw it around like that, dummy.

You’re just a fake and silly professor and very much into wetting your pants.

None of this is true – China is perfect. This is all just a massive propaganda campaign spread by the American capitalist bourgeoisie.

Will. The PRC would greatly improve as a society if some horticultural skill was turned towards producing some decent THC. Not surprising that youth here choose a really crummy and dangerous drug….ice….to get high. Makes one wish for the past when opium ruled the roost in the mind altering department. Call me conservative.
