Chinese government continues its assault against humanity…jail sentences for “naughty” texts

If you are a sexter (love sending nudies of your naughty bits) and reside in China, you might want to start sleeping in the bathroom closet, stop showering, and start eating soup in preparation for your soon to be new living quarters: jail. The Chinese government who has for some time now restricted every aspect of their peoples’ lives is not leaving any area of life untouched as they are now going to punish individuals who send naughty texts with jail time. What’s even worse is there isn’t any consistency between provinces. For example, in the Chinese province of Henan, sending a naughty text can get you a 5-day jail stint and 3 naughty texts ups the dream vacation to 10 days in utter hell. Moving on to Liaoning, violators who send naughty texts can be charged with sexual harassment. Finally, in Hebei, communist party members who get caught sending the dirty can be beaten, raped, assaulted, killed “punished” for their actions. While I’m all for keeping little johnny and julia safe, the approach the government is taking in the name of “morality” is beyond excessive and stupid. Who gives the government the right to declare what is/isn’t moral for others? Anyone else get riled up about this crap?

RIM is making headlines tonight, and not for the right reasons.  A total of 3 crooks executives have been ordered by the Ontario Securities Commission to pay a collective total of more than C$90 million back to RIM as the punishment for the three being charged with a massive backdating scandal.  This is definitely not the way RIM wanted to kick off the new year…with a hefty backdating scandal tarnishing their two leading men and on ex-leading man.  Jump ahead to read an excerpt of the events as posted originally by Reuters.
