    Wiki is your friend...

    That is all they could get, cause china didn't want any of the cheap crap Britain & the others produced putting a hurtin on the trade balance...

"His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    WTF does opium in China have to do with illegals in America?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    And not even they forced opium on China. The Chinese voluntarily used it.
