In a cartoon in April 2010, artist Xu Jun (徐骏) expresses China’s confusion as the country is terrorized by a series of vicious attacks its schools. In the cartoon, two grandfathers walk their grandchildren to school. Both kids are wearing hardhats, and one (who has not yet seen the other) turns to his grandfather and says, “But if I wear a hardhat to school the other kids will laugh at me.”
