Re: NYC - Protestor with Tibetan Flag Sets Himself on Fire Outside UN Headquarters
No one cared. Everyone just kept going about their business. The craziest part is that many of those cars had fire extinguishers, yet no one stopped to help. People are always quick to mock “third-world countries” for bystanders not taking action during accidents or fires, but this shows the same thing happens anywhere. |

The irony of setting yourself on fire to gain attention for a particular issue, 150 other people have done the same thing to no avail, and everyone just drives by you, paying no mind.

Re: NYC - Protestor with Tibetan Flag Sets Himself on Fire Outside UN Headquarters
I am slightly confused. Do these people want to FLEE TIBET? That is, move away quickly to somewhere else? Or do they want to FREE TIBET, as in clear out the Chinese? Wouldn't it be MORE expeditious to set the CHINESE on fire, then? Sorry, but my mind is AWHIRL with questions. Like, why didn't they rescue Gilligan and the other castaways at the end of the series, instead of waiting for sequels? |
