They totally have the right to do that. It's something they have the right to do.

I think that the Olympics is something that is really important to a lot of people throughout the world. I know that what they're doing is for a purpose, but maybe they should be a little bit less self-centered about it.

I agree with it in the sense that I think that the occupation of Tibet is wrong on a lot of levels. I don't see the protest as malicious. Anything you can do to mar China's reputation I have no problem with, because of their policies, their occupation of Tibet and their lack of concern for human rights.

I'm kind of split because I agree it's wrong the way China treats Tibet. But at the same time, the Olympics should be seen as a time of unity, and disrupting that really doesn't make it any better. Violence against violence doesn't solve anything.

I think it's stupid that they're trying to shut it down. It's a world thing, and everyone's involved with it. I wish there wasn't a controversy. If the Chinese are really getting that big of a fight, there's a million other cities we can do it in. I don't know why Beijing is the No. 1 spot right now.
