Yang Youde, a farmer in central China, armed himself with a makeshift cannon and fireworks to save his home from government eviction.
He manufactured his weapons with old stove pipes and about $300 worth of fireworks, the Beijing News reported.
Calling himself a law-abiding citizen, Yang, 56, said he is just protecting his rights.
"I'm a farmer. My whole life depends on farming," he said. "If I surrender, I have nowhere to go." (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/2010/06/09/2010-06-09_chinese_farmer_uses_cannon_fireworks_to_defend_home_from_government_eviction.html)

He's very brave, considering how strict the Chinese government are.

Another reason why I think old Asian people are awesome.
