They've been selling their own children in China for thousands of years. What's a few organs?

Funny. China so the products were likely counterfeit. Ha ha. I love how Asia disregards all copyright law.

So should we all. Unethical laws are made to be broken.

It doesn't break copyright law, it breaks patent law.

So we're stuck with shitty counterfeit products? For designer handbags and overpriced shit, yeah that's fine. But some things are a little too delicate and complex.

Breaking patent laws is one thing; it's another thing when they claim it's the same product. I have no problem with cheap knockoffs, so long as you know it's a knockoff.

I wake up when the post arrives. How can you sleep through having your kidney removed?

I think organs are pretty damn cheap in China. They harvest the organs of people they sentence to death. They actually have death vans. It's really creepy.
