A White House petition by outraged Chinese communities, both in China and outside, to protest against a skit on Jimmy Kimmel&squots late-night talk show, which     had a child saying that the U.S. should “kill everyone in China” had collected more than 55,000 signatures late on Monday night.

    

    The skit originally aired on Oct. 16 on Kimmel’s ‘Kid’s Table’ program on the ABC network, where the comedian gathered four 6- and 7-year old children to     get their thoughts on the current political and economic issues faced by the United States. The offending comment was in response to a question on how the     U.S. could resolve the $1.3 trillion in debt the country owed to China and a child suggested that the U.S. should “kill everyone in China” to eliminate the     debt.

    

    The petition, which called the skit "extremely distasteful" and that it was the "same rhetoric used in Nazi Germany against Jewish people,” was created on     Oct. 19, and has since garnered 55,839 signatures so far. It needs 44,161 more signatures to reach the goal of 100,000 before Nov. 18, so it can be     reviewed by White House staff.

    

    According to shanghaiist.com, Chinese people have protested against the segment on websites like Sina Weibo, with one user noting that the "Chinese are     probably the only people that the U.S. mainstream media are free to publicly insult
