Why do the chinese hate us?

by

Is it because we are tall? Is it the repulsive blond hair and blue eyes? Is it that whole “democracy” crap? And if they have a mongolian beef with us…get it…why do they take it out on our children?

And, maybe it’s just the way they grow ‘em in China…

Growing up, I used to chew on lead pencils…I even have a piece of lead under my skin…and it only itches in the winter. I’m sure our tub was painted with a led based paint. I spent alot of time in that tub…but I digress. I guess I’m saying, I like lead. It’s a part of my History.

And what’s so bad about lead exposure? “they” say it causes:

Reduced IQ
Slowed body growth
Hearing problems
Behavior or attention problems
Failure at school
Kidney damage

The symptoms of lead poisoning may include:

leadman.gifIrritability
Aggressive behavior
Low appetite and energy
Difficulty sleeping
Headaches
Reduced sensations
Loss of previous developmental skills (in young children)
Anemia
Constipation
Abdominal pain and cramping (usually the first sign of a high, toxic dose of lead poison)
Very high levels may cause vomiting, staggering gait, muscle weakness, seizures, or coma

So…what’s all that if you can play with some “Baby Einstein” blocks, or a “Pirates” flashlight…or strange gardening tools.And maybe…just maybe, the Chinese are just trying to make us tougher…I mean, I don’t see death on the list…and whatever doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.

Or maybe…they are trying to make our next generation stupid. That way they can surpass us with their smarterness…more smarterdom…greater smartness…whatever. Well, we are on to you China. Remember how we treated the French when they displeased us…we changed the name to “freedom” fries and “freedom” toast and “freedom” ticklers. We will start calling it “children” restaurants and say “I’ll just be hungry 30 minutes after I eat ‘children’.”

Just my thoughts…while I still have lead in my finger…
