Leave the question of looting in Tibet, every Tibetan in Tibet knows that they would be arrested or get killed for merely protesting against the Chinese rule in Tibet. All those courageous Tibetans who took part in the protest in Tibet were fully aware that they lives were in danger and the Chinese are brutal and merciless. Beating of Chinese and destruction of Chinese owned properties they did intentionally to send a message to the Chinese that Tibet is not their land and they are not welcome in Tibet.
