#1 Dumbass. He thought he was above Chinese law just like he thought he was above American law. And why am I not surprised the guy immediately went to a backpacker haven and started selling drugs? One of the nicest things about my city in China is the total absence of tourists and especially backpackers.

#2 No, no. Don't send him back. He is a closet Uigher. Check him out and do what you must.

#3 After serving his time, Mr. Solondz, 30, who is on the F.B.I.'s wanted list, will be deported to the United States...

Silly, silly NYT. They're making the assumption that this clown's survival is assured. I think it's a safe bet that Chinese prisons are, well, kinda prison-like, involving short rations, an unpleasant physical environment, and lots and lots of really hard labor.

#4 Buh bye, cupcake. Enjoy working on your Mandarin. Be sure to scream about how they are violating your civil rights....the Chinese lap that crap right up.

Just 'cause I'm feeling generous, maybe Mr Solondz (or someone who cares about him) might want to contact this guy. I wouldn't hold my breath that he could do much for him, though, since his best advice to anyone getting arrested in the PRC is "pray."

#5 He won't feel a thing from that Makarov pistol shot. Not a thing.

The PLA uses the QSZ-92 5.8mm pistol as a standard side arm.

#7 .. on charges of manufacturing drugs

And here I thought the Chinese just shot purveyors of such materials.

#9 And that is the high end jail. I suspect it can be a tad bit worse.
