  • igoratwork, on 04/07/2008, -2/+6I like this comment from SF Gate: "This sounds fun ... I'm going to find out about the protest route using my computer made in China, put on my athletic shoes made in China, ride to the protest in a bike made in China wearing a helmet made in China, and then douse the Olympic flame to show off my disdain for China's human rights. And everyone will know what I did, because my friends will be there taking a picture of it with a cameraphone made in China."

  • jboitnott, on 04/07/2008, -1/+3This is NOT duplicate content. There were no other articles about this when I sent it in.
  • teejaay, on 04/07/2008, -0/+2Dugg, because there's no way in hell I could pull that off.
  • NonServium, on 04/08/2008, -0/+2Agreed. The internet is the alternative media, stick to your own NBC!
  • alexandramw, on 04/08/2008, -1/+3three people?? It's a grand feat, but three people? I don't know... three people at a protest sounds pretty pathetic...then again, not all of them could climb the golden gate bridge.
  • theNazz, on 04/08/2008, -0/+2It should be noted that the SF PD have closed off the walkways on the Golden Gate Bridge until further notice. They would not even confirm if the walkways will be opened on Tuesday. Nothing like a good old fassioned lock down to help people remember that they are in the land of the free and the home of the brave...

  • cybrspin, on 04/07/2008, -0/+1to high for me, i like on the ground highs
  • NonServium, on 04/08/2008, -0/+1The mainstream media shows us pictures of people protesting OTHER governments, but never a peep about those protesting our own.
  • RiggedGame, on 04/07/2008, -0/+0GOOD FOR THEM!!
  • krc1, on 04/07/2008, -2/+2Buried because nbc11.com employees are submitting every other story from their website. There are approximately 2000 tv stations in the US and approximately 35,000 world wide. What if they all had employees doing this?
