    Excerpt from SFgate.com:

    http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/04/07/MN6L101A0U.DTL

    Bridge manager Kary Witt said cameras are trained on the span, but that authorities at first didn't realize what the protesters were doing because they wore "ordinary" clothing and pushed a baby stroller. Their "Team Tibet" T-shirts were covered, and their banners and climbing gear were disguised by the stroller, he said.

    Great! Now all parents and baby strollers will be scrutinized authorities!

    This Olympic Torch subject is getting on me... Like this title of another SFGate article:

    'Shame, Shame, Shame On China!'

    The Olympic torch is a symbol of oppression to Tibetans.

    Really, now??? Based on this Headline and subhead...we should just ban the Olympics forever...

    I try not to get political, and I respect all people and their opinions...but I can't wait until it's Thursday.

    I can understand where they're coming from but I'm not sure what all this outcry about the Olympics torch can do for the cause of the Tibetans.

    well, my thought is that people should convert china with friendliness rather than protesting.  protests will only make china defensive and angry and shut itself away more.

    Land's sakes.

    I don't know the history of the religion practiced in Tibet but I've heard that it was quite an  oppressive and male-dominated society, before the Communists took over, during the dynasties and perhaps even before that. China's been governing and putting down its minorities for decades, if not centuries. Why does it take the BJ Olympics for people in the 21st century to be "outraged?"
