Wow this letter is fascinating. It is really well written to educate people about policies around which they could rally. I wonder how many Chinese have read this. Probably not much will come of it but it is cool to see some people sacrificing themselves to educate the population. I think Chinese are, on balance, in a greater state of fear / hypochondria than even Americans. They can't even protest. Who knows though, maybe we will live to see free speech in China. That would be nuts.
