wait a second, you mean the kid in Singapore was actually causing damage?  
then how come your government leverage the Singapore government to seize 
punishment on that kid's crime?  does that mean the u government protects 
criminal?  

now you are comparing 'hero wu' to that 'bad kid'.  do you have any idea who 
you are going to compare the then 'bad wu' with?  

don't give the shit if you don't know what you really are going to say.  if 
it's just because that guy is american or simply you don't like china, then 
fine, just say that.  but please, don't pretend you are a d-fighter 
for the chinese people.  ask chinese people before you save their soul from 
the brutal ccp system.
