China kills innocent monks, lets boycott the Olympics, pass it on.
How long do you think Chinese run yahoo answers will tolerate my nonsense?
 
I wasn't planning on running this year anyway, but okay.

Are you upset because there is now a world shortage of monks to kill?

Would a c. of e. vicar do for you? - I'm sure I could bag and gag one for you.
 
Yes. China should allow Tibetans to run Tibet and stop killing non-violent protesters.
 
What a plan! Let us punish the innocent athletes and their families for the crimes of the communists.
While we are at it, maybe we should hang some school children for the street violence of the gangs.
If we want to hurt China, we should punish China, not our athletes!
 
I think its time we dealt with China. It's been about cheap labour versus human rights for to long now. The American wars for democracy over the years have given way to financial greed, dealing with a country with an appauling human rights record.
China wishes to show its a member of the civilised world by hosting the Olympic games, but now hundreds of people are dead in a country which China took by force and yet the west sits back and does nothing, and why?
Because wallmart can have socks made there at a fraction of the cost they could in the U.S.A, so American jobs go and China makes some money and Wallmart makes a huge profit selling the socks to Americans.
Well in my humble op, its time we said, actually, if you wish to play with us then you need to stop torture, murder and genocide.
Until they bow to international pressure, I say not only boycot the games but stop buying products which were 'Made in China.'
 
Yes we should but...it's all about money.

"If we want to hurt China, we should punish China, not our athletes!"

How would boycotting the Olympics not hurt China? Its the perfect way to let China know.
 
I know it seems unfair to stop all athletes from competing, but I think all Western free countries should boycott the Olympics.

Tibet should be given back to Tibetans & monks should not be shot!!

Edit:: I have just discovered on the news that Youtube has been shutdown in China, since images from Tibet were shown.
