I'm a westerner and this is very insulting. I am perfectly capable of making myself afraid without the aid of communist China. If you doubt my resolve, know that it rained tonight and I spent a considerable amount of time worrying that I might get wet. I live on the bottom floor of a five story building. Me and dozens of other people would be dead from the building collapse before it is physically possible for me to get damp from the rain. Do you think that stopped me? No. I am a western man. My fear is made of steel.
