POPSCU Students Cry Foul-Not EnoughTime The single comment by ANONYMOUS says it pretty well: < When you boil this all down, I guess it is really all about you. Your need of preparation, your need to schedule your rallies. When the tanks roared through Tenamen Square, how many Chinese students said "Please wait, we have not had time to prepare for the tanks.
