The same goes for the English youth who get wasted in different Southern European countries. The only two times when I got verbally harassed on the street while I was minding my own business (I'm talking as an adult) happened on a Greek island during the summer months, on both cases the culprits were English guys in their late-teens, early-20s we were drunk out of their minds.
Chinese tour groups are notorious for disrespecting and/or destroying everything they come in contact with. I've had to personally deal with them in several countries and it is never a pleasant experience.
Same could be said about Americans. I rather be cut in lines from some old Chinese ladies than have Americans shouting disrespectful stuff next to me. In fact Chinese people seem to be aware and respectful of local cultures usually, something that can't be said about Americans.
