"Don't Make Trouble"

China continues to rein in protests, in the countdown to May 4th.

Official concern is especially acute as China marks the upcoming anniversary of an anti-Japanese protest on May 4, 1919, that has become a symbol of resistance to foreign domination.

"Express patriotism rationally. Don't take part in illegal protests. Don't make trouble," said a text message sent Saturday by Beijing police to millions of mobile phone users in the Chinese capital.

So... Beijing is spamming it's citizens? This is progress, isn't it?
