The deleted blog entry

The above Chinese text is an entry deleted in My MSN space. I wrote it since I wanna an answer. I got it so I deleted it. No police will come but only gossip, endless gossip. I don't why, every time I tried to communicate with Chinese people, our Chinese people, I get hurt, am I that different as Alethea once said?
The story began from yesterday evening. We got the free film tickets from "News-Magazin" again. As we reached CineStar (the cinema), we were told we are "Hausverboten", which means we were forbidden to watch a film there. At first we were totally astonished, why? Vincent even argued with the manager, since they didn't even have the names who watched other films with free tickets, and then we were told, there were a few Chinese being caught last time, so...? So all the Chinese are forbidden from that cinema, OMG! It' unfair, isn't it? I was fiercely angry, so I wrote the above entry. Then, guess what, as usual it became a hot-discussed bulletin. Yi and Wang who were caught last time even left me some comments there. One said, the Germans also escape tickets on the trains; the other, more interesting, even told me they have only "sat wrong" for one time, and blah blah.
The story was not over yet. Just now I met some other guys who are also these-free-tickets fans and asked them whether they went to watch the film yesterday. Guess what, they appeared as innocent as possible, saying "No, did you go?" What else should I do except smiling? Thanks to the TV serials "Lie to me", I got my answer.
The truth is: last time Yi and Wang were caught by the conductor, when they tried to enter the room for "Label"(the free ticket is for "Kungfu"), which made the manager alert. And then they checked the other rooms except the free-ticket-film one and definitely caught a few other groups, one of which were the four Chinese referred in the beginning. All these guys were informed "Hausverboten". This is really embarrassing, so no one spreads the news. And we, the rule-obeyers, unfortunately, didn't know anything, going there and being surprisingly forbidden. Let's just call us "black sheep".
This whole thing really sounded ridiculous to me. First, the Germans escape tickets, but they do also pay the penalty when being caught. And some of them still feel a shame. In this sense, if we did escape tickets (in another way), why didn't we just say we were wrong but finding thousands of excuses to defend ourselves? Second, Chinese, modern Chinese really sound to me the most stupid people in this world. On the one hand, Jiejie criticized on this ticket-escaping behavior, saying the whole Chinese was shamed, which was actually only individual behavior and couldn't stand for the 1,3 billion people; on the other hand, Chinese, Modern Chinese, please think more before doing some stupid things, especially you/we are breaking the rules! Please be responsible!
