Any act to disrupt the Olympic torch relay is a shamefulness to China and a disgrace for Chinese citizen. China 's image more damage and unpopular.

Bjork shouted ' free Tibet, raise your flag' in Shanghai performance, then she stated in the public after Tibet riot, that she was whispering. What kind of freak creature, who can lie infront of the world. The reason: try to escape the responsibilities of sedition, and the innocent decedent in Tibet riot. She is an accessary, a muderer.

Shame! on China hides information from its own citizen sensor news. CCP keeps Chinese ignorant for easy to manipulate, lie, abuses, even killing (Tienamen Square massacre, Now Tibet massacre)

CCP is the virus. Democracy is the vaccine

CCP is the virus. The Press is the vaccine

In what religion do they teach male to beat a HANDICAPPED girl in WHEELCHAIR , to take over what she is holding?--the male tibetan did it to the handicapped Chinese girl in France.

In what religion do they teach it's followers racist statements and burning ppl from other ethnicity alive? -- the tibetans in the March Riot did, burned 5 Chinese girl alive,4 of which were Han Chinese.

In what religion their leader was the biggest slave owner ? Tibet was under SERFDOM until 1959, go figure.

[KamuiMosir]

@warwheelz You China trolls are so funny. You think you're doing something by leaving these stupid comments? Do they actually pay you to do this? Seriously shameful nation. I pity you, but hope you join a revolt and get a multiparty democracy someday.

@fromalberta she singing wat she believes in, wats wrong with that. if she wanted to boost her carrer she would just go along the path of what other pop stars do. plus raising tibet awarness should happen alot more. there might not be alot we can't do but we should never forget these people and wat the chinese government have done.

[Elricwulf]

@warwheelz YEAH!!!! I'd like to see Bjork try to exercise FREEDOM OF SPEECH in a country that kills people for expressing their opinions, even in the medium of ART!!! They should all be killed! STUPID activist people, always trying to make trouble for those who would be happy in a nice little cage, to be kept like pets for their corrupt governments with freedoms slowly diminishing day by day!!! (/end sarcasm) Bjork Rulz! Fuck China if they can't take criticism!

[russiangymfan]

Mao said 'a lie told a hundred times becomes the truth' and he learned that from the Russians and what happened to CCCP and communist Russia since?
