Raw Video: Olympic Flame Arrives in S.F.

[mrnrecon3]

china is trying to reach out to global community by hosting an event in their house.just like when you visit someone's house and you complain about their house rules. its ethnocentrism! only the sith deals in absolutes! u can not disrupt an event, rights of others to push for your own rights. infringement of others rights will not get you your rights. tibetans gone down the wrong path if they dont change course they will eventually suffer. What is independence when their is no food?

[kindnss]

So the Chinese run the torch into a warehouse in San Francisco, and then secretly take it away from the crowds to shoot false footage of a "harmonious" relay, (complete with runners waving to no one) and then just leave thousands and thousands of proud Chinese people, who endured hardship and expense to attend ceremonies, standing like fools waiting for a torch that never arrives?

I won't be watching the Olympics either.

How can anyone know if what we are watching is true or staged?

[sonofmanchu]

I you are truly a chinese pride. You woudn't mind to wait and you could understand the reason why torch route altered.Also eventhough you didn't see the torch but you at least got involved. You are not one of us, not one of the member of the "center of the world". You won't watch the olmypic, fine.You are not welcome. We don't need you. Just be a white's slave.

[kindnss]

I am so sorry you feel you are the "center of the world" and that it is a privilege to be used and abandoned by ANY goverment be it Chinese or other . Maybe this is the problem?

I am/will not be a "slave" to anyone...white OR Chinese!

If you choose to enslave yourself to your govt. that is your choice.

[dhillonbros]

because your country hmm o america is a gay raciest nation. your next generation is going to suffer a lot, this is just .001% of begning, in 10 odd years your whole nation will start cring like you are cring now lol

[WindowOpportunity]

Imperialist provocations will not bestir the proud momentum of Chairman Mao and glorious revolutionary thoughts.

***Before you Comment***

Here's the REAL TRUTH of Tibet. Study history, not the media.

watch video

[TAMARLANE]

As the Flame of Shame makes its' modified rounds in San Francisco, the great game of Grab the Torch will continue. This 6000 year old tradition always happens when the wrong country is picked to host the the Olympics.

There will be drive-by slappings, people urinating from the 2nd floor trying to extinguish the flame.

[ReggieRawls]

it would be ironic if the torch started a massive fire

[Tkraz]

shame on USA

[yachilling]

The Tibetans are treated equally as the Chinese. When human rights improve in China, it will be all the same for any ethnic Chinese. Democracy will come eventually. We do not want any bloody revolution right now. These stupid protests and distorted media coverage will back fire. It is too bad for Tibants.

[sollycardy98]

No democracy will come unless there is an uprising. Dictators don't just hand they're country to the people for nothing. and given China's track record, if they're is an uprising it will be bloody.

[albie100]

I honestly think that a string of protests will not help. They only attract more attention, and the protests may lead to police/government intervention, and will make the protests more "righteous". But, since the protests do bring in more eyes, more pressure is put on China, and they will tighten security in Tibet, Gansu, and the neighboring ethnic Tibetan provinces. That increased security will cause more home protests, and more deaths, and the thing will come in full circle. Free Tibet!

[yachilling]

Tibet will never be free. But China should improve the standard of living, freedom of speech and freedom religion there in Tibet, just like what the US did to the Indians. So many protests will back fire for sure in the long term. It really embarrassed the heck of China. Would China bow down to the pressure? She will never as you can tell from its history. Security will be much tigter in the future to prevent this kind of protests. These protests are very stuipd.

[mhubertusk]

the focus is to much on tibet.

this is about the human rights situation af all chinese people.

[zzddytt]

fuck the tibetans, never will be a country, never was. Protest will only make life harsher for those in Tibet, maybe they'll go back living in stone age.

[chemist14a]

You sound like a very anrgy Chinese man. Go sing song KTV and feel better.

[zzddytt]

you sound like a white guy trying to grab the torch. do you have any fucking idea what the history is about?

US took the entire west coast in the US-Mexico war, do you want to give it back? And european coutnries got colonies all over the world, and still controlling a lot of it. So the countries with a long history of invasion have the right to critize another one with bad human rights record? bull shit

[kaanthsap]

It looks like SanFrancisco has become immune/deaf to the sufferings of a fellow human being.

I agree that Olympics are a sporting event, but at the same time, It should be realized how the torch relay/even the participation of Bush in olympics opening ceremony will be projected by Beijing to the suppressed Buddhists of Tibet as - an endorsement of Chinese oppression over Tibet. Its a psychological war game that China is trying to play&win. Common SanFrancisco! standup for the human element.

[yachilling]

I would like to see you take the same effort boycotting Olympics 2012 in Briton since it has killed so many Iraqis. What? they are terrorists? Fuk that.

[katsniffen]

You did see the "amid heavy security", right? I assume the protesters will take the easier targets, rather than fighting through both Olympic and airport security...

[bethedolphin]

Where are all the protesters ???? I had higher hopes for the folks of San Fran to

stand up against China's oppression of the Tibetans.......

[chemist14a]

This is only the airport, give them a chance to make america proud on Wednesday. I am sure they will.

[yachilling]

You must be kidding me. Proud of what? Your fuking pathetic Iraq war? Do you know why no Chinese would give a fuk what the Americans/Brits think about the human right records in China? You guys have shit all over your own body. And yet you guys talk about human rights. Who is more pathetic than you?
