Forced eviction plagues Chinese homeowners, as local governments make land grabs to get rich quick. The popular takeover of Wukan<\/a>, Guangdong last winter, and rioting in Zuotan<\/a> this week, have their root in forced eviction and demolition. Land grabs threaten social upheaval<\/a>, writes journalist Xiong Peiyun.<\/p>\n Weibo user Baipenyao2012, identifying himself as a Communist Party member, denounced the forced demolition of his home on June 9. According to Baipenyao2012, three families in Beijing\u2019s Baipenyao neighborhood had their homes demolished, and in the struggle with the authorities one resident suffered brain hemorrhaging.<\/p>\n Baipenyao2012<\/strong>: I joined the Party in \u201999. I\u2019ve been a senior Party member for over ten years now. I have always obeyed the law, protected our motherland and championed our Party. Yesterday, my house was forcibly demolished, and I was beaten until my skull hemorrhaged. As a Party member, I now seek the support and attention of society at large.<\/p>\n \u767d\u76c6\u7a912012 \uff1a\u672c\u4eba\u572899\u5e74\u5165\u515a\uff0c\u5341\u591a\u5e74\u7684\u8001\u515a\u5458\u4e86\uff0c\u4e00\u76f4\u4ee5\u6765\u9075\u7eaa\u5b88\u6cd5\uff0c\u7528\u6237\u6211\u4eec\u7684\u7956\u56fd\u6211\u4eec\u7684\u515a\uff0c\u5728\u6628\u5929\u5374\u906d\u4eba\u62c6\u6389\u623f\u5c4b\uff0c\u88ab\u6253\u6210\u9885\u5185\u51fa\u8840\uff0c\u4e00\u4e2a\u515a\u5458\u7684\u63a7\u8bc9\uff0c\u5bfb\u6c42\u793e\u4f1a\u7684\u652f\u6301\uff0c\u516c\u4f17\u5389\u5bb3\u5f97\u5173\u6ce8<\/p>\n Baipenyao2012<\/strong>: Our home was demolished, and still no one speaks out.
