Question

why are protesters trying to stop the Olympic torch run?

and what are they protesting about?

Answer 1

They're protesting against  the Summer Olympics being held in China and trying to fight for the rights of the Chinese people. China is a has a communistic government, meaning the government controls everything, what's taught in school, what they can see on the Internet, media releases, money, and even what career you will pursue later on in life. The protesters are fighting for the democratic rights of the Chinese people and the lives they want to live.

Answer 2

Protesting about people's property being ceased , putting people on the street homeless and much more. I have a very strong feeling that when that day comes, something really horrible is going to happen there. I feel sorry for the citizens there, they are being abused physically, mentally and thrown out of their own homes.

Answer 4

The so called People's Republic of China is one of the most evil and despotic regimes in the history of our planet.  Their repression of all civil rights, and their continued occupation and brutal behavior in Tibet are but some of the many good reasons for all liberty loving people to use the Olympics to embarrass and expose them.  They want to use them to sugar coat their evil.  This is going to be a huge mistake for them I think.

Answer 5

they are protesting China's activities in Tibet
