And it's time those in charge were brought to account for their actions. There was a debate over at newsy.com (where they were also covering the story about China's milk scandal) about how China should handle this incident. Personally, I know in America we don't like the death penalty, but it only seems fair to take a life for a life. How else will will anyone understand the severity of government negligence?

I don't think we can afford to depend on the news media, as some people tune out the news. There's also the sensationalism that the media creates, which makes it hard for the average citizen to take them too seriously. I think the more people who research these news items and talk about them the better. Keep shouting. I don’t think we can afford to depend on the news media, as some people tune out the news.
