I can't see why there still are people doing this kind of useless work.
Before the bill was signed, you had different oppinion on it, you opposed
it, and tried to stop the bill past, that is understandable.  But after
it has already been signed, and become a law, there is no reason to 
continue opposing it.  

There are so many other problems of China, a singal bill is not that 
important.  Instead spend your time working on the so-called '9201', try
to do something really can help China.  

I think the majority of Chinese scholars in US are not the kind of people
you discribed.  Of cource, there always are some people take advantage on
others, or others live, but those doesn't represent the whole.  And you 
must realize that US government is not that stupid to keep so many Chinese
in the US just for their safety.  These Chinese are a treasure to the US. 

As for the cause of this bill, I have no right to judge if there is blood
on the card.  I was not a college student in 1989, though I joined some 
demostration, which I couldn't fully understand at that time.  But as I 
said above, at least this is not only caused by those died on TAM.  To 
protect Chinese students, is just a excuse of the US government to keep 
these people, in this case both sides benefit.  

Passing this bill doesn't mean all Chinese students have to get the green
cards, or become US citizens.  If a person wants to be a Chinese all his 
life, he could be one in any country of the world; if a person doesn't want
to be a Chinese, why force him to be one?

What is wrong with that?  That is a choice of live.  If you don't like it,
just don't do it by yourself;if you don't want people in China be 'fool'ed,
then try to go back and tell them, or do something better to help.
