Tuesday, February 28, 2012 (228)

February 28, the date of 228 Massacre, represents the forever trauma in Taiwanese' hearts. I am not supposed to be cheerful on February 28 because I feel bad for the victims' families. Honestly, I have a whim to accuse the injustice. Why are we worrying about the 228 Massacre, instead of extricating the Syrians? If we seriously want to walk out of the shadows, we should prevent the tragedy to happen in the world. However, I don't have the "authority" to defend for the Syrians. I love Taiwanese more because Taiwan is my homeland, the most beautiful country which bore me. What happened in 228? Basically, Taiwanese were slaughtered by the ROC administration. I'll never forget the temporary leader, Chen Yi, who commanded to slay innocent Taiwanese. There wasn't peaceful, nonviolent protests because all the protesters were DEAD. 228 became a Peace Memorial Day in Taiwan. Last year, we visited the 228 Peace Memorial Museum and further understood our homeland's history. I pray for all the victims' families and sincerely hope that the massacre will never occur in Taiwan, and the world.
