According to BBC news, the chinese food minister has been executed for misconduct and corruption (leading to the shipments of tainted toothpaste to the U.S., as well as many MANY industrial accidents and deaths). I'm torn between deploring the human rights violations in other countries and wishing we punished our leaders the way we punish our petty criminals.
etcee:
i seriously had to read that like three times before the word executed sank in.

Yes, i do believe that our leaders should not be immune to the punishments that would much more aptly fit their crimes, but at the same time I'm against capital punishment, so, ....yeah. For whatever that's worth
