Beijing Olympics-
There is a lot of talk recently about boycotting the Beijing Olympics because of the 'Free Tibet' issue. I support free Tibet activists but there is also the issue of China's long and blood stained history with Animal cruelty.
The animals Olympics are sick!!!
Below are some interesting links that support the boycotting of Beijing.

What do you guys think?
There are lots of people arguing that while they disagree with a few of the Chinese Governments policies, they feel that sport and politics should be kept separate. There is also the argument that we should support our Olympians.
I am not trying to convince you boycott the Olympics. I just want to know what you all think on the issue. Will you boycott them?
(i hope it is ok to post this, if not tell me and i will delete it)
