Organs and murder for salePosted by Joel Martinsen, June 21, 2006 5:36 PM
 From Beijing comes this sticker advertising organ sales:
The Mirror reports that on Monday, Beijing police found 500 different ads amounting to a total of 50,000 copies in an apartment in Fengtai District. 
The New Culture View reporter's contact claimed to have been in the business for six years. Police suspected that it was scam, and that the "assassins" would run off with the deposit. Lawyers consulted by the paper said that either way, it was still illegal. Links and Sources

Comments on Organs and murder for saleThe private detective's hired vengeance service would be ideal to use on American lawyers during a negotiation. Lawyers consulted by the paper said that either way, it was still illegal. How sweet, the paper does its research and actually ASKS a lawyer to check if it is indeed illegal to pay people to GBH or kill a person....not bad...I like that attitude of completeness in the article. I guess those journalists thought their readers could not be trusted and had to be instructed NOT to use the service. Economics with socialist characteristics.... In fact it's often a cheat,they need you pay a part of fee first ,then no result. I think it is wrong for the world to moralise about something they are not looking deeper into. It is almost like going against israel for the occupation of lebabnon after the have suffered for so many years without the intervention of the world. For one to sell an organ, he has come to the point where he feels there is no other way out. And is probably suicidal...and feels that this would be a better option because he lives and gives life to another! Look at it from that angle! And not this angle that is purely based on theory that has no experience in ones difficulties. |

+ Men behind the Nanny (2005.04): The Publicity Department (formerly known as the Propaganda Department) has held a "forum" in Beijing to promote what it calls "news editorial staff management regulations (in testing phase)". These regulations appear to be same the set of rules earlier reported on Danwei of which the stated intent is to clear up corrupt journalistic practices. + What's wrong with Thirteen Princess Trees?
