The Greeks protested the Olympic Torch, so did Turkey, so did London, and Paris managed to get it shut down completely. San Franciscans, you're up next, do us proud. I think if I lived near SF, I'd take a day off work and go watch the protests ( Read more... )

I'm very pro Taiwan independence, but I'm realistic in that we don't have anywhere near the strength needed to pull it off - both in terms of military and political.

I think when countries decide to be independent, they rarely do it without help from other countries. :)

Am slightly surprised--since you have more claim to originate from China, technically.

I used to be more PRO TAIWAN! I am "TEH UBER TAIWANESE--NO CHINESES HERE!!! >:D" But realistically, I don't have much nationalistic spirit for any country at all.

To a certain degree--I slightly share this view on it. But I do understand both sides...but leaning a bit more towards...why must we bring politics into it?

As far as SF--was up there today during the torch run--but didn't have time to see it. Lots of mainland Chinese on Caltrain today. The Mayor ended up cutting the run in half due to massive protesters.
