canuckamuck Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 It doesn't look anything like them, but I guess that is beside the point. This is just another version of cartoon censoring. When will people learn to stop having independent thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chainarong Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Thin skinned politicians have been the bane of Asian politics since Adam wore nappies , now we have thin skinned Generals who cannot take the heat, western Leaders are the subject of cartoons everyday, but that's in democracy land , one wonders what their reactions would be like under enemy fire or even a student uprising ..........................................
