Mon, 30 Apr 2007 18:36:04 +0000 http://207.47.0.153/?p=214#comment-234 My family has just decided that we are not going to China next year for the Olympics. We were all very excited to go, but recent Chinese incidents have motivated us to cancel our plans. It was a hard decision, but the real Olympic spirit will not be there. Why support a country that violates every basic human freedom of it's own citizens. We can not support a country that hypocritically violates every basic Olympic value and principle. Intentionally polluting our environment, poisoning the world's food, selling prisoner body parts for profit, and threatening the peace loving peoples of Taiwan with nuclear missiles is too much for my family to support. I will do everything I can to persuade others from not attending. I will also write to my local newspapers and our Congressional leaders to motivate them to cancel funding for an American team to attend. Just like we successfully did when the Russian Olympics were boycotted in 1980 then all freedom loving people of the world must do the same with the Chinese Olympics of 2008.
