    Just caught this story and was pretty disgusted, but strangely not surprised. Not looking to incite any instantaneous stereotyping or Chinese bashing, but I wouldn’t expect to see this anywhere but here. China has a long way to go yet.

    FYI, this behavior is also common in Egypt, India, Vietnam, Cambodia…

    I don’t think they have any snow in those countries, so what will they be throwing?

    I hope someone doesn’t “accidentally” push these assholes into the pen.

    Yeah, the “plain & simple” wording was great.

    The first thing I thought when I saw this picture was “Why are African lions left outside when it’s snowing?” The snowballs were just adding insult to injury.
