    Default turn on CNN

    oh.... Migod.... WTF is wrong with people? The Olympic torch run has been delayed 2 hours by protestors, and now they're in the middle of a PR nightmare... Torch run started and then they ran into a warehouse about 100 feet later.... Now they've been holed up in this warehouse for like 20 mins. This is the only stop in north America for the torch and people can't be civil for a day and be tolerant. Grrrrrr

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    I'm curious as to how ruining this person's torch run (perhaps one of the greatest moments of their life) is going to prove the point that they want Tibet to be free from their evil oppressor.

    Yeah cause we wouldnt want anyone I guess to bring attention to what China is doing to Tibet and thier people huh? Damn the people who feel that is wrong and want to make a stand on a issue.

    they are proving their point that THEY want tibet free. they are making world wide news and making people by the millions aware of what is going on over there. so i would say that them ruining the torch relay is getting their point across quite well. i mean we are talking about it aren't we?

    Yeah, but much like Westboro Baptist Church, they just look like a bunch of screaming retards with signs. Nobody gives two sh*ts about a small group of retarded Americans who think they have a valid opinion on how the China/Tibet issue should be resolved. All they're doing is ruining this torch runner's once in a lifetime opportunity. If they want to help fight the issue, they should fly their Starbucks drinking, self-righteous @sses over to Tibet and actually do something.

    you do realize its not just americans. plus if you see the people at the protests here in america they dont look to be the trendy whitebread starbucks type.


    this is FAR from the Westoboro C*nts. Atleast these people have a valid point. Alos how unrealistic is it to say that they need to fly to tibet and take on the chinese? c'mon nate think rationally.

    I find these retards just as pointless as the Westboro ones. Valid point or not, a small group of idiots with signs isn't going to get in the way of the Chinese nation. I, for one, laugh at their futile attempts at "making a difference".

    I'm sure being portrayed as yet another ignorant American sticking their nose in something that doesn't apply to them is going to help. I hope every one of these protesters dies from Bird Flu.

    i dont know why you dont understand the fact that its not only americans. you have always had a hatred of americans and yet you turn a blind eye to everyone else in europe that was protesting over there last week. Or were they all americans over there protesting?
