One World One Dream -No Blacks
Following all the protests against China’s gross civil rights records, their government decided to throw some blatant racism onto the fire by banning Blacks and Mongolians from bars by the games.
Never mind how many blacks will be participating in the games…no, they’re all aparently “social undesirables.”
I hope everyone in the Chinese government has already reserved their spots in heaven, because they’ve got no chance of getting in without paying.
