I'm sure you've all heard about the Walmart mishaps from products from China. The bad dog food, the baby bibs and so on.

My question is this, and I haven't researched it or anything so I'm asking the smartest people I know. . . What has changed?

Did we suddenly get some people with brains that started testing things that come from out of country? Or did China replace their smart people with stupid people who tried to get substandard goods through to our country?

All right, I suppose my first question was stupid since no one said anything until pets and babies started dying.

My next question is this. . . had these goods come from Afganistan, Pakistan, Iran or some other questionable country, would this country be screaming terrorism? And if so, why aren't we screaming that now?

My point is that we knew about Iraq for decades and did nothing until 9/11. Suppose China is doing the same thing only a little more covertly? :confused:

Am I way out in left field all by myself here or should this topic go under conspiracy theories? :D

I think a lot of people are thinking all of these scenarios.







On another note, have you noticed just how many newbies are from the UK? We best be keeping our eyes peeled on them folks. They have accents and everything.:cool:

I've had the same suspicions. If anyone was going to do it in a sneaky way it would be them!

See here pal we a talk normally, we dinnae hae accents it's yous lot that cannae tak properly. Ye hae whit is caa'd a yankee accent that's nae proper speech at a'. dear goad ye cannae even pronounce yer r's properly so you say ass when you mean arse, when you call each other assholes ye hiv nae idea the picture it conjures up.

Seriously though it's hard work having to type slowly so you can keep up and trying not to use too many big words so as not to confuse you. Apart from that most of you can't spell properly-no not properly I mean words like colour and humour and centre are you all illiterate or what?

What is it you think you knew about Iraq? Incidentally it wasn't them that attacked you on 911 it was the Saudis.

Why would China bother? All they have to do is stop trading with you and you would have to cancel Christmas cos you can't make your own toys any more.

And it is very much appreciated, thanks.
