We have shown support - the ESB is the tallest standing building in NYC since the topple of the Twin Towers on 9/11 - to an Evil Empire and mock all those who protest and wish for freedom behind China's walls.
Just to fill you in, the Empire State Building is lighting it's tower Red and Yellow in commemoration of China's 60th anniversary as a nation... a "Red" Communist Nation.
Have we completely lost it as a country that stands for freedom? The hundreds of slain students and intellectuals desired what we have and take for granted all too often..., freedom from an authoritative, oppressive, communist regime. It seems that America has lost its way in standing for freedom for all peoples including the Chinese oppressed.
Here's some fun facts for you concerning the great and wonderful impacts of Communism's take-over and rise in China:
- Historian Chang Jung estimates that as many as 72 million people died due to the toll of the revolution and China's communist rule, which has taken an additional tens of millions of lives through years of war, famine, reeducation and wholesale slaughter
- During the Great Famine of 1958-1962, 36 million Chinese are believed to have starved as a result of Mao's "Great Leap Forward"
- During those years of ruin, peasants ate bark, maggots, bird droppings, human flesh — anything to survive — as government storehouses stood full with grain and other cereals
Thank you Empire State Building People... you are wonderfully blessed to be able to exercise freedom of expression in honoring a country that does not allow the same to its people... .
amen
