Summary:

Runggye Adak asked a crowd at a horse festival if they wanted H.H. the Dalai Lama to return to Tibet (Bo). Some hundreds, in a crowd of thousands, cried “Yes!”, with which Adak said, “Tibetan Independence.” (Presumably not in English.) Now he and hundreds of others are being held in who knows what horror.

Free China!
