Blatantly ignorant and embarrassing comments regarding China and Chinese manufacturing that is on the OT board. The comments are so misinformed it embarrasses me to be associated with a people that can make such foolish, broad sweeping claims. I am not a fan of Political correctness. I am a fan of factual based discourse and not the proliferation of stereo typical ignorance. I know I will tick some people off but….
