Give me a break. A redneck probably helped them translate the tags.

No they have been listening to "gangster rap" and were influenced by this genre, also there has been a spike in drive by shootings also influenced by the same.

That wasn't a bug in the software, it was an Easter egg. Like the secret code you type in while playing one of the old Tomb Raider games that would make Lara get naked.

That's not really a surprise to me. I work in China but I wonder if the color was half translated. Chinese use the word "niga" which means THIS or THAT. When you hear it that word the first time around it sounds very strange but the Chinese use it all the time. I wonder if the true translation really ment "this is brown" or if it was some coolie pissed off. The Chinese hardly ever double check anything so this isn't really news to me. By the way. The Chinese are one of the racist people on this planet, and that's a FACT.

You will never get a Liberal to believe that or repeat it, the only people capable of being Racists to them are Conservative, Republican, White Christians who have an American Flag on their car.

The Chinese language has no tenses, and no plurals. Any sound can have several meanings depending on the tone in which it is spoken with. So it is hard to translate exactly into English.

This is clearly a computer error and nothing else.
