I happened to here when i was looking for some English article about the Spring festival. As known the big problem of traffic during Spring festival,it causes we can't return my home to reunite my family. I think going to a local farmhouse to join them and spend several joyful days may be a good ideal.

Hi there, I get to Shanghai on 17th February. Can you tell me the best places for a tourist to visit to enjoy the Spring Festival in Shanghai?

Uyghurs only steal because it's in their genes, end of story. Their only way to rise up is to bomb buses with innocent civilians.

Uyghurs only steal because The Man denies them every other way to make a decent living besides shining shoes, selling meat on a stick and hash. Rise up!

I notice that the pickpocket in the poster has a yellowish skin, a slight wave to his hair and is wearing a horizontally striped polo—clearly implying he is a Uighur, arrived from Xinjiang to rob us good people blind of all our valuable possessions. I'd like to see the poster warning against white-collar crime (or government graft, philandering 'laowai' or scheming Shanghai girls, for that matter) in everyday Shanghai. Perhaps the image of two people—any race, gender or nationality—smiling and shaking hands, giving one another generous dose of 'face', while their free hands slyly reach in the others' pockets would serve just about right.
