Chinese Citizen Faces a Year in 'Reeducation' Prison Camp for Single Retweet
According to The Next Web, that addition was apparently in violation of "disturbing social order," and, some days later, Jianping disappeared. After several more days (including Jianping's wedding date), the Chinese government eventually disclosed that the young woman had been arrested and detained. Sentenced to undergo "Reeducation Through Labor," Jianping now faces between one and four years in a prison camp.
The fiance's fate is apparently unknown, but Amnesty International has intervened on Jianping's behalf, and is appealing for her release. For concerned parties, Amnesty International's website provides pertinent information about the case, including methods for donating time and money.

Did they say " Reeducation Through Labor"? For real the goverment just took this girl off the streets and said 'we are gonna work and do what we want to you until you submit". So let me guess The "goverment " is just trying to help, write?

In the United States it is the same crime, here it is called Inciting a Riot (" angry youth charge ")
And the punishment is pretty much the same thing, up to a year in jail, and a fine, and while your'e in jail here, you are forced to work, or faced with a loss of your good time.
People in this country are so obsessed with what the other side is up to, that they don't even see what is going on in their own world.

Here in the United States it is called Inciting a Riot ("angry youth charge") And is punishable by, get this, up to a Year in jail and a fine. And while you are serving your time here, you are forced to work, or you will lose all of your good time.
People in this country are so obsessed with what the other side is up to, that they can't even see what is hapening right in front of them.
I don't find any fault with the Chinese government for bringing this lady under control, before somebody died in a serious riot, or had their home or business burned to the ground.

@(Unverified) "angry youth, charge" would NOT be considered "inciting a riot"...

@(Unverified) Except it was George Bush who actually arrested people for this kind of stuff. Do your actual research.

We should not be involved in a global economy with a country that still has absolutely no concern for human rights nor should we be sleeping with a country that flaunts in our faces its outright whaling under the guise of "research"! This whole New World Order is simply a more comprehensive scheme for big business to get richer and for those will less to be kept down. Boycott all things Chinese and Japanese...period!
