Imagine that.....

When people visit they have to be very careful about what they say to someone regarding Tiananmen and Taiwan, especially the latter. China and the rest of the world have two different maps as far as China is concerned...lol  If you have one of the "other" maps when entering China, it will be confiscated!

That is what I am afraid of in the US though. We are incredibly censored by the morality police as it is. Next step is randomly tapping landlines and cell phones... Oh Wait!!!!
