In this case the Chinese government most likely is wrong. Nonetheless it is the hippie crowd that has jumped on the bandwagon. Two wrongs don't make a right. After violent protests in Paris and London, the torch was taken to no US city other than San Francisco. Out of all the cities, the Olympic committee had to choose the one that is most likely of having violent hippie protests. Any thoughts?
