As an American,I also believe censorship is wrong;but the Chinese government has the right to do as they wish with whatever is in their borders. But to those who are commenting(or going to comment) on their form of government,there is no such thing as a "right" or "wrong" government.Besides,there is no definate definition of what is "right" and what is "wrong". They are abstract concepts that are determined solely by personal opinion. A type of government can never be the problem,it is those in power that are the problem. Here in America, it is supposed to be a Democracy,yet that is becoming far from the truth. Our freedoms are subtly being taken away as well. America is becoming less "free" by the day. The only difference with China is that their government is being more obvious and straight forward with what they do and why they do it unlike the gov't of our good ol' US of A that does it behind excuses (i.e. Homeland Security,terrorists...etc)Goes to show you that just because a country is "Democratic" doesnt mean its free. I dont agree with what they are doing but they have the right to do it because they are in charge,for better or worse.
