The Chinese Communist Party’s armed police often play an important role in violent repression of the population. A few days ago, photos emerged on the Internet showing armed police officers in training with long-handled wolf tooth sticks and shackles with sharp iron balls, and netizens cried out in horror.
A few days ago, two photos were posted on the Chinese Internet, one of an armed police officer holding a riot shield and a long-handled wolfsbane stick of one person’s height, suspected of marching in a training ground. The wolf tooth stick has dozens of spikes at the end and the long handle is suspected to be made of iron.
In another photo, an armed police officer shoulders a short-handled shackle, the end of which is an iron ball with dozens of spikes. This person has the words “armed police” on his back belt, and the words “strict” are written on the fence in the distance, which is suspected to be taken at the training site. Outside the fence are residential buildings.
It is not clear where the photo was taken in China.
According to publicly available information, the wolfsbane and the yoke were both cold weapons commonly used in the Middle Ages, with the weight and spikes of the rod or hammer head delivering a fatal blow to the head. One of them, the shackle, is generally a short handle with a small section of chain attached to a heavy metal object (or two), the chain part of which can help bypass shield protection and strike the opponent’s torso or head.
Of the CCP’s armed police forces, all but the marine police function internally. The resurrection of ancient fierce cold weapons by the armed police has sparked heated debate on overseas social media.
Some netizens said, “It is evident that the Communist Party is as vicious as barbarians to the common people of China.” Others said, “They have research institutes that specialize in new equipment to deal with the people.
Other netizens ridiculed that “society has still progressed, it used to use tanks and vehicles directly ……” and “the four modernizations that have been realized are this stuff.
Some also angrily questioned, “How long can a government that is an enemy of the people sustain itself?”
