Maybe they thought they were tunneling to China?
Nonetheless, now the two convicted murderers and high security escapees will be slapped with a discrimination charge! (That'll show'em.)

FWIW, rugs are oriental. People are Asain. That's just basic respect.
And that note is just hideous.

I heard that one of these guys killed and dismemberd his boss, so a racially offensive drawing is the least of his sins, all things considered. Just saying.

Is there some prison slang involved?

Was there someone of authority, at the prison, that was Asian? Maybe it was directed at someone in particular.
I agree. This looks personal.

space-time, if there is anything positive to take away from this thread is this ^^^ It has been brought up multiple times here when the word "orientals" is used. But I guess some people just don't care.

It's a racist pop culture mashup.

What's wrong with 'orientals'? Doesn't it just mean originating from the orient?
