A Chinese music student was convicted on Thursday of U.S. charges that he harassed an activist who posted fliers at the Berklee College of Music in Boston supporting democracy in China and threatened to report her activities to Chinese law enforcement. A federal jury in Boston found Xiaolei Wu, 25, who sent the activist online messages saying he would chop off her hands and demanding she tear down her “reactionary posters,” guilty at the end of a four-day trial.

    Yea it seems pretty par for the course. As much as I really don’t like the US’s prison system, I personally think this kinda shit needs to see harsh punishments. Supporters of places like China and Russia need to know that this shit will not fly and that at least while they’re here, they need to suck it the fuck up
