Sport and Politics may not go hand in hand, however if we attend, are we not saying you can do what you like, we dont care, sports is more important than human rights?

We even have the Labour government progressing a free-trade agreement with these monsters in power in China.

I'm interested to know what PF1's think.

Poll to Boycott the games!

Didnt say things Plod, I said Olympics, we already get things from China without any free trade agreement.

The Olympics is the China tyrants way of saying, look what we can do, look at us.

I don't think you are really interested in what we think, you are just using it to push your own agenda.

We want to make a statement to the Chinese government, not the manufacturers as they cant do anything about the government?

Well now, I cant do anything about what you think or even how you reached that conclusion, but whatever!

Yes quite true, as the next generation, what are YOU going to do about it?

What CAN I do about it? I intend to find solace in being a naturalist.

Call me a coward, but I'm just too sick of so many humans in this world.

Some people turn to politics, which in turn will transform them into the very thing they tried to eliminate, some shy away from the facts and try to blissfully live their lives. Me? I just want to move to Canada and live with wolves, quite literally.
