Ooft good thing they seized that flintlock pistol, someone could've gone on a real spree.

I hope that flintlock pistol won't get destroyed, it actually looks like an art piece.

[CertainDOOM]

The fact that it's even there just makes me think they just rummaged through people's homes and seized a bunch of family relics.

[Mr.Brown]

got some real old fashioned terrorists among them

>Since 2014, Xinjiang has “destroyed 1,588 violent and terrorist gangs, arrested 12,995 terrorists, seized 2,052 explosive devices, punished 30,645 people for 4,858 illegal religious activities, and confiscated 345,229 copies of illegal religious materials”, it added.

>Only a small minority of people face strict punishment, such as ringleaders of terror groups, while those influenced by extremist thinking receive education and training to teach them the error of their ways, the paper said.

Yet the triads still run a huge cannabis operation in Scotland, go figure.

now that I think of it wouldn't be all too suprising if the chinese government hired people to form crime organizations in other countries

I have no knowledge about the triads

I used to buy from them when it was difficult to find any. They own alot of casino's and betting shops in Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow, not too sure about England but in Scotland they are in the thousands, it's a pretty huge operation and it's not spoken about at all.

They really don't cause any trouble, but after learning more about China in general, I'd be very very weary of buying their shit again, especially with all the research chems coming out of their country.

That's actually a non firing replica flintlock showpiece. I own near the same model in a different colour.

[joshthesmith]

Flintlock Jihad in China. Shit boys be careful!

I don't blame them for owning weapons no matter what kind, their lives are extremely under threat due to what they believe

China needs to take a Xanax and chill out

[AxeI]

That's a high number of "terrorists", even for a country as big as China.

Wouldn't be surprised if a large part of them just happened to hold the wrong opinion in the eyes of the government.

[Sableye]

it probably is a non functional art piece.

[revengeanomics]

16 y old terrorists?
