how about no....there ar ea lot of Taiwanese that have been in Taiwan WAY before World War II. My family has been in Taiwan way before that- my Grandparents all grew up during Japanese rule.Originally Posted by shatterkneesinc
the whole taiwan vs china beef is purely political. It has nothing to do with ethnicity, language, culture and heritage.
the reason why most taiwanese people dont consider themselves chinese is because they dont want to have that communist label on them.
not to mention their great leader chiang kai shek was a coward and sold out the chinese people

It is probably the most diverse yet racially equal area in the United States. Hell you see people of every color saying the N word with no racial connotation. It's just not right to assume Lin is more likely to play for China just because he looks like them.Originally Posted by werallequal

I think you guys i really taking that statement wrong... i think he would play for china ..if had the opportunity .... i'm just saying a lot of people dont understand he is first generation .... yeah he was raised in the US but im sure with in his house hold the chinese influence weighs more ....(not in a bad way) im sure he is very proud to be an american but also very proud to be chinese.....
