Kirby saving the world

So I had just started dating this girl gal and she takes off on a secret activist mission in a foreign communist state with the intention of getting arrested. Its the Olympics in Beijing and China has been cracking down on human rights as opposed to opening up. Students for Tibet had actions going on all throughout the Olympics. Kirby was there for a week preparing with a "team". With a few exceptions the protesters were getting deported within a day. One of the first guys got punched, put in stress positions and seriously interrogated. Some of the later ones were held in prison for a week.

Here is the post about her "action".

And here she is speaking for the activists from DC when they arrived at the airport and were received by the local Tibetan community.
