I mean, come on: “without tanks”? Nice try, Alex.
There’s a deal to sell the 1,200-acre Moreland megasite to the People’s Republic of China, according to classified government documents discovered by The Times-Herald in a dumpster behind the Coweta County Administration building.
[...]
One of the documents, entitled “potential zoning concerns” says the Chinese intend to use the property to build a “theme” industrial park that will be a miniature of downtown Beijing. The park will include open air fish and poultry markets, bicycle rentals, smog machines, a Chinese fortune cookie bakery and a half-scale model of Tienanmen Square, but without tanks.» Chinese want Moreland megasite for half-scale model of Tienanmen Square
Every year the Times-Herald does at least one* April Fool’s joke on April 1. This one nearly had me, but that bit about no tanks in the square is a dead giveaway.
