Norinco

2008-05-12T04:57:57Z

Hello2: You fuck donkeys in your mother's cunt

The '''China North Industries Corporation''' ('''Norinco''') manufactures vehicles (trucks, cars and motorcycles), machinery, optical-electronic products, oil field equipment, chemicals, light industrial products, explosives and blast materials, civil firearms and ammunition, etc. It also does domestic civil construction projects.

Norinco is also known outside of [[China]] for its high-tech defense products, some of which are adaptations of Soviet equipment. Norinco produces precision strike systems, [[amphibious assault]] weapons and equipment, long-range suppression weapon systems, [[anti-aircraft]] & anti-missile systems, information & night vision products, [http://www.norinco.com/c1024/english/productsandservices/index.html# high-effect destruction systems], fuel air bombs, [[anti-terrorism]] & anti-riot equipment and [[small arms]]. It was created in the early 1980s.

Norinco was established in 1980 with the approval of the State Council of China, and is overseen by the Commission on Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense (COSTIND). According to the congressional testimony of Gary Milhollin of the ''Wisconsin Project on Nuclear Arms Control'' in 1997, Norinco subsidiaries in the U.S. include: Beta Chemical, Beta First, Beta Lighting, Beta Unitex, China Sports (California), Forte Lighting, Larin, NIC International (New Jersey).

hhh
In 1994, some employees of Norinco came under federal investigation from both the [[FBI]] as well as the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms ([[BATF]]) after a successful sting dubbed “Operation Dragon Fire.” In May of 1996, in what was called [http://www.time.com/time/archive/preview/0,10987,135999,00.html "the largest seizure of fully operational automatic weapons in U.S. history,] 14 individuals and an Atlanta, Georgia company were indicted for the unlicensed importation and sale of 2000 [[AK-47]]'s into the United States. U.S. Customs agents posing as arms traffickers convinced a group of Chinese arms dealers, including three Norinco representatives, that they were in the market to buy guns for drug rings and street gangs. [http://www.courttv.com/archive/legaldocs/misc/smuggle.html]. "The defendants offered the government undercover agents more sophisticated weapons, including hand-held rocket launchers, mortars, anti-aircraft missiles, silenced machine guns and even tanks," said Wayne Yamashita of the U.S. Customs Service. [http://www.cnn.com/US/9605/23/china.arms/]. It was discovered during the investigation that these weapons were bound for Oakland street gangs [http://www.washtimes.com/national/20030523-123039-1385r.htm]. According to an affidavit signed by two of the undercover agents involved in the investigation, representatives from Norinco offered to sell urban gangs shoulder-held missile launchers capable of downing a large commercial airliner.

In August, 2003, the Bush administration imposed sanctions on Norinco for allegedly selling missile-related goods to Iran. [http://www.washtimes.com/national/20030523-123039-1385r.htm]. While not formally joining the multinational effort to restrict the proliferation of missiles, China did commit in 2000 not to assist in any way the development by other countries of MTCR-class missiles. Neither the Chinese government nor Norinco has denied doing business with Iranian companies, although they deny that it was for missile related purposes at the Shahid Hemmat Industrial Group, Iran’s key manufacturer of ballistic and non ballistic missiles. [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/2931154.stm ][http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/world/iran/tehran-hemat.htm]. [http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/18902.htm] [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/2931154.stm ]. Norinco has called the sanctions “groundless and unjustified” and “entirely unreasonable.” [http://english.people.com.cn/200306/06/eng20030606_117779.shtml] [http://www.norinco.com/c1024/english/newscenter/press_03.html]

In May of 2004, Norinco won the contract to build ''Tehran Subway Line 4'' with Tehran Railway Company in Iran. The total amount of this contract is over 800 million (U.S. dollars) and is China's biggest international project contract to date. The project is estimated to take up to six years to complete.

Video game controversy

2008-05-12T04:56:51Z

Hello2: asshole, suck my mother's pussy

[[Video game|Video games]] are often a controversial subject, particularly where children are concerned. Graphic depictions of [[sex]], [[violence]] and/or [[occult]] themes in popular games are often cited by [[conservative]], anti-gun and anti-violence groups as contributing to children engaging in premarital sex or committing horrific acts of violence.

== Violence == just hours after the events at Virginia Tech by [[Jack Thompson]] in a [[Fox News]] broadcast despite the fact that, at the time of the broadcast, it was not even known who had carried out the shootings<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weG7A4lTGtg</ref>, and claimed that 'Cho was an obsessive player of the game Counter-Strike', in a later broadcast after his identity became known<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nvbhrCl5Ew</ref>, despite the fact the original Washington Post article only describes him as a 'fan' of Counter-Strike<ref>Original article no longer available, but [http://kotaku.com/gaming/washington-post/washington-post-links-shooter-to-counterstrike-253117.php this one] quotes the relevant paragraph</ref>.

== Grand Theft Auto ==

In June of 2005, an independent modder created a hack for the PC version of the popular 'Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas' game. This unlocked a normally inaccessible mini-game of two of the characters having virtual sex in the game as a side-part of the gameplay. This did not actually feature any nudity, at first, but a mod, based on the original hack, replaced the bitmaps of the characters with flesh tones. The mod, named 'Hot Coffee', soon spread throughout the internet and the console versions using 'game enhancing' tools separate from the game.

'Hot Coffee' soon spread through the internet, and came to the attention of critics. Those who were critical of the game soon attacked Rockstar Games (The developers) the [[ESRB]], responsible for rating game content for the inclusion of the mini-game into the main game's code, even though it could not be accessed without subverting the original programming.

At the height of the scandal, Sen. [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]] and [[Jack Thompson]] worked to ban GTA: San Andreas, as well as many other games, such as ''Killer 7'' and ''Bully'', going as far as starting investigations upon the ESRB and Rockstar Games. Rockstar Games soon stopped sales of the original GTA:SA, removing the original 'Hot Coffee' coding from the game build, then re-released the 'clean' version after the game was altered. A 'Cold Coffee' patch, released to address various problems in the PC version, also removed the code.

The impact of the scandal also reached past the original title, hampering the production and sale of other controversial games, including ''Manhunt 2'' and ''Grand Theft Auto 4''.

== Manhunt 2 Ratings ==

In August of 2007, [[Manhunt 2]], a stalk-survival game released by Rockstar Games, was originally set to be released for an Adults Only 18+ [AO 18] label by the ESRB, due to some of the more gruesome torture scenes present in the game. Some compared the game's bloody aesthetic to movies such as the ''Saw'' and ''Hostel'' series of films, depicting copious amounts of blood, gore, and partial nudity. The game was soon backlashed by retail sellers such as [[Wal-Mart]], Electronics Boutique, and GameStop for the AO rating, which made it prohibited to be sold in retail stores. The game was soon toned down, and after months of edits and changes to the game, it was released with mild fanfare in October of 2007
