Conscious Chaos

This past weekend was a wild one in London and Paris...
Thousands of protesters waving Tibetan flags and shouting "Shame on China" disrupted the Olympic torch's marathon relay through London on Sunday...
In France Monday, the flame had to be extinguished for a third time as police protected it from anti-China protesters.
In Paris, some 3,000 officers were deployed on motorcycles, in jogging gear and using inline roller skates. Still, police barely stopped the second rush at the torch, and the attempt to extinguish it with water.
Less than an hour later, the flame was being carried out of a Paris traffic tunnel by an athlete in a wheelchair when the procession was halted by activists who booed and chanted "Tibet."

the comments are priceless:

Too much fun. Can we get the Olympics to Sudan next time?

What's more flaming, a torch, or cops on inline skates?

Usually one doesn't have much difficulty marching into Paris.

At least the paparazzi didn't cause the torch to go out of control and crash in that tunnel.

I can't wait to see the look on China's face when Tibet wins a shitload of medals this summer.
