Executions → Execution of Drug Dealers in China
China maintains the death penalty for a large number of offenses, including non-violent crimes and economic crimes. A large proportion of sentences and executions are imposed for drug-related crimes. Execution is by shooting.
Based on public reports available, Amnesty International estimated that at least 1,010 people were executed in China during 2006 year, although the true figures were believed to be much higher. Credible sources suggest that between 7,500 to 8,000 people were executed in China in 2006. The official statistics remain a state secret, making monitoring and analysis problematic.

| Ordinary drug users are not supposed to be executed, they normally would be sentenced to get compulsory detoxification treatment in rehab camps. But unfortunately many users end up getting involved in distributing and trafficking drugs, and these accusations can get their heads blown off |

| They should do that in the US. Then the US taxpayers can support some of these South American countries. Certainly solve our drug problem. But then wipe out about 25% of the population. |

| so much. The look on each person makes you woendr what kind of thoughts are going thru their minds. It takes talent to make the viewer want answers to their questions.The picture in the church would have looked like any other picture but you captured it with a completely unique vision. I love the picture of the birds. It is also unique because of the view you had showing not just a sky with birds but you used the light, with the statue having the last comment. It really took an eye for this statement this picture makes. |

| What the fuck? |
| So your saying that drug users and drug dealers should be put to death because of something they choose to do to them selves with that logic people who smoke or drink beer should die too that's just brilliant |

| In addition to my prior post, I want to add that the (communist) Chinese government has also been using execution on political prisoners, which is wrong. Another problem with execution is it is final. If a mistake is made, it can't be undone. But with regard to drug enforcement, it's the only approach that works. History show this. |

| China eliminated their drug problem by shooting dealers and users. Initially they tried shooting dealers, but that wasn't very effective with millions of opium addicts who still found ways to get it. So then they shot the users too, and that worked. Who are USA and European nations to criticize that? It has worked very effectively to eliminate and prevent drug culture and addiction. By contrast the USA and European nations have rampant drug addiction problems. Also, it is worth noting that European nations, most notably Britain were largely to blame for creating the opium addiction problems in China (in 1800s) because Britain and others were using military force on China to force opium on Chinese, thus ruining the lives of millions of Chinese and creating the largest drug addiction problem in history, which the Chinese government later had to clean up. |

| Swift justice. Perhaps they think it is better to do this than have a country strung out on drugs... |
