On the other hand, China is a large country with long history, we have different traditions in different area among different people, and we have very different beliefs and convention. some Chinese release fishes, some Chinese eat fishes, some Chinese eat fishes when they release some at the same time. I don't think it's appropriate to consider them as the same guys.

Exactly...and that's why I'm not (and we should not be) concerned with racial labels but rather simply crack down on those who are illegally releasing fish.

BTW, it isn't just Chinese who are doing it...rather, it is people of the Buddhist faith who are doing it...and that includes all races, culture and ethnicity.

Caution - Objects in picture are smaller than they appear. I am genetically predisposed to make fish look bigger.
