The Uiguir population in China is an oppressed people who are treated as second class citizens in every respect. They are Muslim in name only because there is no freedom of religion in China. What is going on there may be very much like what happened here in 1776.

Oppression never works. I hope the Obama administration pays attention. Higher taxes, taking over banks, car companies, mortgage companies, trying to take over healthcare...oppression. Our government for decades has really been running a Ponzi scheme. It's time to put the American people back in power.

Over throwing dictators always costs blood. People yearning to be free while most Americans want the government to dictate to them and give them "free" everything.

In this image released by un-named local citizen Sunday shows protestors gathering in Urumqi, in China's western Xinjiang region. A protest that began peacefully turned violent Sunday as police fired shots in the air and used batons to disperse the crowd that swelled to nearly a thousand, according to a protester and an overseas rights activist.
