The Lead Shield Project

China already has extensive efforts to censor information their citizens can read. The Golden Shield Project(a.k.a. The Great Firewall of China) is their cyber-arena effort. But more direct methods are still used, it seems:

Shots have been fired at the office of a Chinese-language newspaper in northern Australia, the publication said, in an incident it says is linked to its critical coverage of China.

Assailants reported to be of Chinese origin opened fire on the Epoch Times' Brisbane offices late Thursday, shattering a front window in a drive-by attack, said newspaper spokeswoman Margaret Ramsay.

"It was big enough to make a hole in the window but because the glass was tinted, the window was shattered but did not crumble," Ramsay said in a statement.

The Great Fire at Walls by China?

Being China for a day really isn't as great as some of our elites would have you believe, eh?
