I doubt that copying hundred years old racist slogan from their occupant is any proof of creativity... Still...we were hoping that in 2008, xenophobic slogans could be punished by law just like they are in France...since 1881...

But guess what, posts like this that call xenophobic slogans on taxis just creative and the Chinese nationalism that can be found all over the web and at Wikipedia at the moment has profoundly changed that. PS: And no, I am not one of these guys who can just shout Free Tibet and not more, because as it happens I have tried to understand the average Chinese position on Taiwan, Tibet and so on.
