Law is no more than a tool used to defeat the enemy.

Political struggle is all about deceiving each other since the ancient time. Political movements such as this crackdown are a violation against the already defective laws. There is no such thing as à ‚¬Ëœlawful' or à ‚¬Ëœproper' in this affair.

Political struggle has little to do with justice. It is all about scheming and tactics. At least it provides more material for entertaining ourselves.

People's lives are too repressed. In such an era of universal entertainment and universal gossiping, relishing such peripheral matters is understandable.

If you think that China can solve her social problems, especially mafia-type problems, through legal processes, then you know little about China's realities. If you list which countries there is no rule of law, then China will surely appear on that list. All the movements or incidents of the past seldom take into consideration people's needs or society's progress. It is all just a tool for politic gain. If the time comes when China's rulers become truly concerned for the people's interests, then China will become truly strong. But, such a wish may never come true.
