Dead Chinese Kids

.

Here's one version of the news story, outlining the most recent horror and a few other recent ones.

First sentence: "A man hacked to death seven children and their teacher with a kitchen cleaver yesterday, in China's latest bloody schoolyard rampage."

Not good.

The articles have all said that these men were disatisfied (duh) and possibly disturbed (duh) and unemployed ---

But here's what I want to know:

Were they married?

Is this what happens to a society that is man-heavy, in which you have no hope of ever finding a nice girl or having kids of your own? You kill kindergartners with a meat cleaver? Is this what China's one-child-and-probably-a-boy policy hath wrought? Is this what men with no link to the future will end up doing?

I want to know if these men were married.

  1. From articles related not to this particular incident but the overall situation is that homosexuality is incredibly huge-because they are out of options.

    So that at least for some, it is a decided choice-I imagine not unlike a penal system (no pun intended)

    I've been expecting that news for a while.

  3. Excellent point. I wouldn't be surprised at all if that is the case. And if so, those poor men...
