BEIJING, May 23 When a video clip surfaced on YouTube showing Zhang Ya cursing Wenchuan earthquake victims with lots of profane words, a small earthquake was triggered in China's Internet community. Millions of Chinese Internet users posted furious condemnation messages, accusing the 21-year-old girl of "no humanity," "insulting the victims" and calling her "scum". In the near-5-minute video, Zhang, a native of Shenyang, capital of the northeastern Liaoning Province, showed that she was annoyed with the three day period of national mourning during which she could neither watch her favorite television programs nor play any games online. Shockingly, the girl chose to vent her anger through throwing nasty words upon the victims of the Sichuan quake, whose number has now topped 55,000. In the case of Zhang Ya of Liaoning, following her insulting video's appearance online, at least a dozen "cursing-back videos" were uploaded to YouTube overnight, some of which showed the indignant speakers cursing Zhang and her whole family with words much more profane and vicious than her original version. "I can understand their fury and overreaction, as Zhang's remarks did challenge the bottom line of humanity," said a Beijing Internet user with the Web name Thorn Bird. "But I can't agree with the way they expressed themselves, which virtually made them no difference from Zhang." Although "verbal violence" on the Internet is not illegal in China, it's a real disgrace to the nation for anyone to act like riffraff on the Internet, he said. "The case of Zhang has showed how far it is for the Chinese Internet community to grow mature and rational, and how arduous the job is to purify the country's online environment," he added.

  • Why aren't the people around her punching her in the face?

  • Actually, the translation is just ahead. They couldn't fit everything she was saying at any time on the screen. I did read the English and listen to the Chinese, all you need to do is be able to remember what you just read in English and listen to her while remembering what the translation said.

    Also, it's not literal so that it makes sense in English, a literal translation would read badly since grammar isn't the same.

    Pretty crass to not mind it if you understand, since it's worse in Chinese
