It is far too early to assess how the Chinese government handled the riots. We have documentary and eye witness evidence that many people were killed by the rioters, including the 5 sisters being burned alive in their store. And the same where the police killed 4 ethnic tibetans in Gansu (where I was riased). The chinese government's reflesive news blackout is not helping. The truth will come out in a few weeks.

However, with this gentleman with the low IQ, his mind is already closed. He is not going to change it based on the evidence of how well (or badly) the chinese government is handling this. At times like this, we are all Chinese (remember after 9/11 - we were all Americans). And it is still not too late for us to be Proud of being so if it emerges that the Chinese government had handled this appropriately and with restraints.

As for the documented criminals, Yes Criminals, they should be on trial and in jail if convicted. You know what, the same for the criminals on the government side if any is found so.
