    I know....that is exactly what I said when I read it. I understand the whole idea about celebrating different stuff but this????? It is way out of order

    Its pretty stupid, but this kind of thing is just no longer shocking in Today's America. Its kinda sad, but its no surprise. It does look pretty cool though. Maybe they were just looking for an excuse to have those wicked red lights.

    They could have use this as an excuse but to blatantly say this is to celebrate the Communism in China is pretty crazy

    exactly. just call it crazy cool red light night or something..................Red is the natural color that indicates things like STOP, Hazard, danger, etc......Perhaps its a defense tactic to keep Giant Apes away from the building. If I were a giant Ape, i'd probably decide to climb a different building. I certainly wouldnt go straight for the top of the big scary Red Light Building.

    Why not celebrate China's communist revolution? We celebrate Cinco de mayo and that has nothing to do with America, so what’s one more foreign countries mark in history...

    It's not the foreign country's mark in history, it's the fact that it was an extremely violent period that resulted in an estimate of 72 million deaths including 26-36 million people starving to death and set up a regime that's renowned for some of the worst human rights violations in recent history. Most people celebrate liberation from these type of regimes, not the initiation of them.

    No. China and USA have nothing in common. There is a huge difference between Giant apes climbing buildings and Giant Fire Breathing lizards destroying a city.
