"kill Everyone in China" BEIJING (Reuters) - China sharply criticized an American talk-show host on Monday for a remark made by a child on his program which has set off protests by Chinese-Americans in the United States. The controversy blew up when a six-year-old replied "kill everyone in China" after the host, Jimmy Kimmel, asked him how the United States should pay back the $1.3 trillion it owes to the world's second-largest economy. Kimmel, who hosts a program called "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on broadcaster ABC, replied: "that's an interesting idea". Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang said ABC must respond to the Chinese-American community's protests. "It's necessary to point out that spreading racism and hatred runs counter to the media's social responsibility," he told a regular news briefing. American broadcaster ABC has issued a statement expressing regret for the incident and Kimmel apologized on October 28 on his television show. Kimmel's show is pre-taped. Critics say ABC should have cut the offending segment before it was aired. |

![]() Hate cannot be taught, it just exists as any other human feeling, but only adults can hate. I will never forget about a group of 20/30 children in the Gaza strip used to meet secretely to play football, everyday: palestinians and israelis, playing football in mixed teams. There were palestinians and israelis in each team. At the end of the match, they used to eat and drink together, stuff brought from home. Their parents would have kicked them in the ass if they'd caught them. Now this child was asked how the United States should pay back the $1.3 trillion it owes to China and replied "kill everyone in China" as according to him it was the quickest and more effective solution. A 6 Y.O., it wasn't the Secretary of State. If some chinese was actually offended by this, then he's part of the problem if not the problem itself. |
