Boy Defecates In Aisle On Delta Flight From Beijing

Via the Shanghaiist (and be sure to check out the article so you can see the picture):

A Chinese family allowed their son to squat down and defecate in the cabin aisle of a Delta Airlines flight from Beijing to Detroit in the US, leaving other Chinese passengers onboard the flight shaking their heads in shame, Sina News reports.

Wang, a passenger on the flight, revealed that a pair of grandparents and parents paved newspapers on the aisle for the boy to pass a bowel movement publicly.

Passengers and flight attendants urged the family to take the kid to toilet but the grandfather insisted on letting the boy settle there. The whole plane reportedly began to smell, triggering discontent and complaints among riders.

I’m still not quite sure what’s worse — the story, or the comments section of that story. Sometimes I think I have trolls on this blog, but they pale in comparison to the ones on this article.

Like this one:

Why complain so much of us Chinese? We Chinese own 1.3 trillion of your USA debt so in truth we own you so shut your mouth. Guess what? We Chinese built much of the plane too. I love the smell of good poo on good Chinese.

Or on the other extreme, this one:

I know you Chinese own a lot of money to US, money gained in centuries of slave condition under Chinese and foreigner exploitation. The big part of the world bears China only for money, otherwise Chinese are nothing, less than animals…. great China!

Oh, the internet…

I had a similar situation happen to me on a China Southern flight from PEK to Guilin. We had an emergency stop in Taoyuan, for some reason, unsure. This boy had to pee, there was line for the bathroom (unsure about why airplane bathrooms are so popular in China), so his mom told him to pee into a bag. They were sitting right in front of me. Then the mother proceeds to put the bag of pee under her seat, next to my feet. I ask her in Chinese, "What is this?" She says, "a bag of pee." I tell her that I don't want it at my feet and she moves it to another seat where another of my friends is sitting, he tells he doesn't want it. She starts explaining that there is nothing to worry about, that it is just pee and swings the bag in his face. We immediately press the call button and the situation calms down and the mother disposes of the bag in the trash. I'm so glad it wasn't poop.

Can anyone explain why public defecation/urination by children is so common in China? Is it a lack of public restrooms?

"The people that run Shanghaiist only report vile and tasteless information about China. They should be run out of China." -- so for those people that do " vile and tasteless" things - it is ok. for those who report such - run them out of china? i dont get it. are you trying to paint a harmony, peaceful, no offense to whoever picture? are you 13 yrs old?

This is why we need to nuke China before it's too late.
