China sees Tibetans as Chinese citizens. To try and cross the boarder into India might be considered treason? You ever wonder why there's so many posters and bumper stickers with "Free Tibet" on them?

I can't watch the video but I gather that a Chinese soldier is shooting Tibetans... Have you ever heard the slogan "free Tibet"? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibet

Shooting Tibetans is like the US Army shooting Texans driving to Oklahoma.

Nah, it'd be more like if we took over Mexico by force, and then shot Mexicans trying to cross over into Guatemala.

the tibetans need some suicide bombers. then maybe western university students and faculty would want to do sh*t like divestment and ban collaboration with such a regiem.

Do you want to volunteer?

Check this out, from a guy defending the footage on youtube:

"Tibet is already part of China in Qing dynasty. So plz stop using "occpy" or "invade". I'm sorry those chinese people shot by our own soldiers.But this would not happen if they didn't try to across the boundary to join the traitor Dalailama. "
oh i'm sorry you don't get to use some ancient history to justify invasion. that is total bullsh*t and would make the world a disaster zone if everyone thought that way. sick apologist.

eh yea the tibetans dont see themselves as chinese citizens.
the chinese have ways to rectify this.
http://www.freetibet.org/info/facts/fact1.html
#

Resettlement of Chinese migrants has placed Tibetans in the minority in many areas, including Lhasa, causing chronic unemployment among Tibetans.
#

Official figures put the number of non-Tibetans in the TAR at 79,000. Independent research puts the figure at 250,000 to 300,000, and for the whole of Tibet 5 to 5.5 million Chinese to 4.5 million Tibetans. In Kham and Amdo the Chinese outnumber Tibetans many times over.

Isn't China one of the countries that says we should not build a fence between the US and Mexico? I guess they think Mexico should be shooting the boarder crossers. GRRRR

Michaels in his ignorance didn't realize they are shooting people trying to LEAVE the country. He thought they were entering illegally. But still...
