Have you heard about the protests held by citizens in South Korea ? Thousands of them went in the street with candles to show their opposition against the importation of cow meat from the US with a neglected medical inspection.
The result, the armed policemen used water canon to suppress them and many unarmed citizens were badly hurt.
Here are some pics a person I'm in contact with sent me:
I honestly Don't blame the citzen of their protest but the police in korea do do that when ordered but i do think thats a little over board.

Yay some interesting topic. And hrmm, I'm not really sure what happened. But something should have provoked one side to do something. It's sad that this is what happens in protests.
Is US beef really that bad that you're willing to get hurt?

Heh...where's the beef?
Anyways, I hear the US exports old cattles thus they don't want it, and something somewhat related, some US cattle ranchers uses some growth hormones that maybe harmful to us, it's called rbst, and there's probable traces in milk. surprised
I still drink though, even though I don't want to. neutral
