Yes, olympic torch in tibetApr 10th, 2008 - 04:02:33

First, my thanks to the SFPD for keeping order. Those peaceful F T people constantly want to attack chinese bystander celebrating the moment. The relay in SF is overall successful. IOC should not change the relay route, after argentina, australia will be the last bump on the route to beijing. I am pretty sure our african, arab, vietnamese, and korean brothers receive the torch warmly.

Over the last 60 years over 1.2 million Tibetans have been massacred in cold blood by the Chinese military. Why has the world remained silent? Why?

China's human rights abuses are 'staggering': the detention of hundreds of thousands of people, including political activists, for 'reeducation' programs, and forced labor camps; and the liberal use of the death penalty in China -- including for political prisoners -- which makes China the site of 8 of every 10 government administered executions carried out in the world!

It is clear that the Communists can't be trusted at all and they have a bag full of tricks to fool not only Tibetans but the people of China with a state-controlled press. The solution is a free Tibet. There is no doubt that a sovereign Tibet would be a savior state not only for Tibetans but for all ethnic groups of China who have nowhere to go if they disagree with the CCP. A free Tibet would be such a free democratic heaven and haven.

Thank for kindly words brother chi-com, we fooling dumb westerners goodley with our impartial words of encouragements in yankee imperialist pig-dog vernacular. One day our beloved government will allow us to view western websites without censorship or re-education, until then it is back to spreading led paint on toys at blessed factory.

The last bump in the road to Beijing was a protester that the Chi-com tanks rolled over.

These are such one-sided images. If you were really there, you should have see and snapshot huge numbers of Olypic supporters which waving red flags. There a only handful of Tibet supportor, whom are real minorities. Most people joy support sports and Olympics!
