This is a report from Sky News on the Criminal Justice system in China. One reporter posed as a patient needing a liver transplant and was assured by a Chinese doctor a suitable liver could be obtained within a few weeks as they used organs from executed prisoners. One Chinese lawyer is interviewed and states that 99.99% of people charged with murder in China are convicted. A few weeks after giving this interview to the Sky News reporters the lawyer was picked up by the police and has not been heard from since.

1. Truly FUBAR
Regretfully, what's going on here doesn't give us the best vantage to throw stones.

3. This was a science fiction story once
The demand for organs in this futuristic dystopia was so great that people were being sentenced to death for the most trivial of offenses.

And now, it's happening.

4. I'm going to be very dissapointed if we don't boycott the Olympics!
The whole world, especially the US and the European Union should boycott them for ALL their human rights abuses.
