International | Arts + ActionAttack On Chinese Paralympian Fencer Jin Jing Carrying The Olympic Torch In Paris
An account of what happened in Paris by one of her companions: 'But at that moment, something unexpected happened: a Tibetan splittist broke through the police line and attempted to wrestle the torch from her hand. Jin Jing had never encountered anything like this, so her instinctive reaction was to embrace the torch. An overseas Chinese student at the scene said later: "That girl turned her back on the thug. He hit her, he pulled at her hands but she held on to the torch with all her might." Finally, the thug was subdued and taken away by the police. But the lower jaw of Jin Jing had been scratched. She lift up her head and held the torch up high.
'The Chinese overseas students in the crowd were moved to tears. They chanted aloud: "Girl, be strong! Go! Go, China!" The citizens of Paris were touched by Jin Jing and they applauded her as she finished her leg. 'The story of Jin Jing quickly spread across the forums and BBS's in China. Thousands of netizens left comments immediately. Many people said that they were crying when they read the story about her . They said: "Girl, you were strong. We are proud of you!" "Jin Jing, you are pretty but your heart is even prettier. We all support you. Long live the motherland!"' Full story and more photos: http://www.zonaeuropa.com/20080410_1.htm

In this day of Technological and, Mental Evolution I am appalled at China's responses to this situation. These Stone Age citizens of China with all their technology still act like angry little children. They have boycotted French restaurants and products due to a TIBETAN attacking their torch bearer.
CHINA - How do you justify this?? You need to be put in a chair like a little spoiled child and given a time-out to think about your SILLY OVER-REACTION. These actions by Chinese citizens are perfect representations of their mental evolution as a whole nation. Unfortunately it seems they have (as a nation) gone to sleep.
As far as your Complete and utter ignorance on the Tibet issue I believe I speak for a Majority of the "Non-Sleeping" world. Stop your TYRANT SCHOOL YARD BULLY TACTICS AND . . .
LET TIBET BE FREE AGAIN ! ! !
