I did not see the video but I read the SF article…
I am planning to protest on Wednesday… and the only doubt I now have is over the young torch bearers. I have now heard of 2 young girls that are scheduled to carry the torch who express fear of the protests causing them bodily harm…

I hope that all protesters (especially in America) are peaceful and respectful of the athletes. We would not have this opportunity to highlight the plight of the Tibetans if the athletes did not participate. I feel that in San Francisco we can insure a long peaceful protest and set an example for the rest of the world of how civil disobedience can be accomplished without harassing people.
