Anti-China Organization Fearmongers on CNN, Gets Debunked By Scottish Newspaper.

 So NGO Safeguard Defenders, formally known as "China Action," presented CNN with a story of how China is outsourcing their law-enforcement by using Chinese businesses abroad as makeshift police stations.  

Ignoring the irony of any American being shocked at this knowing that the US has military bases all around China, places like the Loon Fung in Glasgow, Scotland were identified as one of these "secret police base." 

Accept, according to The Herald, this is pretty much a nothing-burger:

The restaurant denied any wrongdoing, with the manager telling press: “There are no secret police here.”

At the time, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon told MSPs she was extremely concerned by the report and that she had discussed it with Police Scotland. 

Asked for an update today, Detective Chief Superintendent Stuart Houston said: “Officers visited a restaurant on Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow as part of ongoing enquiries.

"We are continuing to assess all information, in conjunction with local and national partners.

"At this stage, no crimes or offences have been identified."

The Lesson here is: unless the US media is complaining about how China is going to become an economic juggernaut, take their fearmongering with a grain of salt.
