The ghosts of a modern day legacy

The ghosts of a modern day legacy Twelve years ago the Chinese Government lost patience with a student movement calling for democracy in Tiananmen square. They ordered the peoples army to turn their weapons on the people. The bloody suppression of the students effectively smashed the pro democracy movement and drove dissent underground. The recent publishing of the Tiananmen Papers has reminded the world of the tragic events of June when students challenged the legitimacy of the Chinese Government. The issues which fueled the protest are still present in China today lack of political freedom corruption and unemployment. But public displays of dissent are rare and Tiananmen square remains under constant surveillance.

Another site recomended to review: casino for all ( http://casino.cooolnews.info/Indexeng.html )

I've just been staying at home not getting! anything done. I haven't been up to much recently. My life's been really bland recently. I've basically been doing nothing worth mentioning. I just don't have much to say lately.
