LMAO. Deal with it.
Mark Swidan was caught selling ~64 kilograms of crystal meth and ~366 grams of other kinds of drugs in China. China's death penalty starts at a mere 50 grams of drug trade.
Instead of bemoaning and complaining, they should feel thankful that China didn't send him straight to the firing range right after his initial sentencing.
Why do some of these people (especially those from the West, sorry to be direct) believe that they still have some kind of extraterritoriality rights in the "uncivilized" rest of the world like in the 1900s? This isn't just regarding China - countries with strict drug enforcement and heavy punishment against offenders like Singapore and Indonesia too often suffers from the same criticism from the West whenever they pass down capital punishment against Westerners caught bringing and selling drugs on their soil.
Just shut up and respect the local laws and rules. If you don't want to, just leave ffs.
