Chinese Teen Beaten to Death at Internet Addiction Camp

[WorldCritic]

"Come to Internet Addiction Camp! Results may vary."
Another needless murder. Strangely this doesn't sound like something Jack Thompson could talk about.

 

[Shycte]

Just plain sad.

Hope they put their asses jail.

[small]...China used to be cool...*sigh*...[/small]

China still cool!
[small]Hehe Simpsons [/small]

"In this square, in 1984........nothing happened."
[small]hehehe, more Simpsons [/small]

"You pay later!!"
[small] Sorry couldn't resist [/small]

"I too have grown up as an orphan. My father was China's greatest ping pong champion, but he choked to death on a ping pong ball right before the Heimlich Maneuver was invented."

What's even funnier is that I think all of these quotes are from the same episode *rolling on the floor roaring with laughter*!

...what the hell?

this... this is... urgh, it sickens me. i hope those teachers get some horrible punishment.

 

[Lusperus]

Yikes, I bet half of my friends would be dead because of WoW.

 

[teutonicman]

I'm surprised that this story was able to leave China.

"School administrators were baffled when this attracted national attention. 'We don't understand - our methods are flawless: he'll not be using the Internet anymore.'"

hahaha, yeah, cool thing you did there

Then the kid will rise from the dead as the Internet addict equivalent to Jason Voorhees... Beat them with your keyboard and your WoW shaman rod!

that would be a movie

well... too bad for the kid, i hope his parents get what they deserve

Kinda ironic really. Parents sent thier child for help and he was killed trying to "cure" his "addiction". It would be funny if it wasn't so fucked up.

What the hell camp needs to include: "the treatment does not include torture or other methods that might damage a child's health" in its mission statement?! That should have sent up red flags immediately!

 

[logiman]

well..he got cured
right?

 

[Jinoru]

Hurray for the USA.

 

[Deadpoolsbrain]

This is a very strange story, but China, what did you expect?

 

[SharPhoe]

Games kill, allegedly.

Not playing games kill, actually.

Guess FOX News will be blaming this on games as well then?

Looks we just can't win either way, can we?

This is absolutely saddening. My condolences go out to the parents.

 

[crypt-creature]

Well come one. One city in Chine was already allowed to kill every dog within the city, stray or legally owned and healthy, so the citizens wouldn't become infected by a rabies outbreak there.

The government needs to step up and help the country and its citizens.

 

[Stevepinto3]

Seriously, nothing was going through their minds when three adults were beating on him? I imagine at some point they would have said, "well gee, lets not kill the kid!" But maybe I just don't understand the Chinese.

 

[guardian001]

Wow... What the hell. Why would they think it's appropriate to beat the kid for not running fast enough?
