Does this sound like a stable, happy populace? In a tyranny, like they have in Communist China, tensions build to sudden violence, requiring even more violence from the regime.
Just wait until the trade war the Chinese started years ago, and which Trump is going to finish, starts to really bite their economy.
Veterans of the People’s Liberation Army staged a massive protest this weekend in the eastern Chinese city of Pingdu against police beatings of former soldiers. Police beat some of the protesters during the demonstration, even though they were elderly.
Chinese reporters said the police were withdrawn from the streets after several violent confrontations out of fear a full-blown riot could erupt.
Provincial authorities are reportedly worried the protests will spread to other cities, especially if public anger over the beating of elderly demonstrators continues to mount.
The key issue for disgruntled PLA veterans is unpaid pensions. This weekend’s protests were inspired by the callous treatment given to 38 elderly veterans from Pingdu who journeyed to Beijing to state their grievances to the central government. The petitioners were sent home and beaten by the Pingdu police when they arrived.
