Updated Saturday, May 31, 2008 0:00 am TWN, Julian Wang, Chiayi Crossing the line of basic decencyWhile others are busy raising money for relief efforts, a well-dressed self-billed human-rights supporter like her makes light of a natural disaster which left more than 60,000 people dead, with a Buddhist term and a big smile, because (she said) the Chinese are “not nice to the Dalai Lama, who is a good friend of mine.” Then who is not nice to whom? How completely insensitive are the so-called friends of Dalai! Stone’s image often makes people think she is brainless. Strangely, in a recent issue of Hollywood Life magazine, she says that Sen. Hillary Clinton “has too much sexual power” and “a woman should be past her sexuality when she runs (the election).” After these comments on sexual power and karma, perhaps next time she will wonder aloud on Tibetan “Yab-Yum”! Though Sharon Stone’s Cialis-like films are notorious for bad taste, she is still entitled to make politically charged comments on other countries as much as we do on her mother country — America. However, let’s be careful about pain our commentary may cause, do not cross the line of basic human decency. Otherwise we will soon worry about our own little karma.
