However, since he indiscriminately murdered six officers without regard as to whether or not they had participated in the acts against him, the death sentence, in my opinion, should be upheld. It is hardly surprising, given the reputation of the China police, that popular opinion is against them.

It is not YaJiang's 'HUMAN RIGHTS' to kill other human beens. If everyone in the world believe that they have the right to kill someone because they received cruel treatment. Imagine what the world be like? WORLD WAR 1 probably still continues today.

Cause those officials or policemen think they are masters instead of servants of Chinese people. Very few can get the justice done through legal ways. More choose to keep silent rather than retaliating like Yang. One day the dam of silence will break and flood...

I m wondering, what will happen or what the justice will say to Yang Jia, if this case happened in another country, say, US? Is an amnesty possible there? How will the public respond to the case? Anyway, just imagine this happened in NYPD (like Shanghai Public Safety Bureau), and following the case will be quite interesting, right? Wait and see what will happen then...
