Now THIS is How You Protest
by RS Davis The Freedom Files ![]() Hello Freedomphiles! Did you read the Freedom File yesterday called I Hate the Chinese, So I'll Beat Up This French Kid? It concerned the recent protests in San Francisco, Paris, and London, where activists assaulted torch relayers, trying to disrupt the event and steal the torch:
Well, one enterprising young activist has staged her own protest, and it is one that I can get behind. The New York Daily News reports:
See? Even though people called it "disgusting and appalling" and said that she dishonored her family, this is the way you protest. My hat is off to this brave (and super hot, if you didn't notice) girl. One thing that kind of caught my attention in the story, though, was what happened after she pulled out the little flag:
Why, exactly, are Chinese paramilitary goons accosting American citizens? |

Poetic justice would have been the crowd overwhelming & stomping the "paramilitary" goons to a pulp...but oddly, nobody remembering what happened.

She ought to worry more about the crimes committed in her name. A protest against Guantanamo perhaps.

Joe you need to give her some credit man and give the anti American sentiment a rest for a good cause. Guantanamo is not relevant to the Olympics in any way and her protest is absolutely relevant in every way.

I dont need to give her any credit. Tibet is part of China and probably always will be. It is as every bit Chinese as Hawaii is American. And FYI i am not anti American, if i was i wouldn't be on this board speaking in a civil manner to most American members. So you can drop that claim. I am not anti any nation, race, religion or whatever. I believe in internationalism, hatred of any such collective is in direct conflict of all i believe.
