Countrywide Olympic boycotts are toothless tigers. Now, if prominent Olympic athletes want to boycott, that’s the best way to stick it to the Chinese Communist Party.

The only ones that get penalized by the boycott would be US sports fans. We are only one country and they won’t miss us being their. The athletes who would qualify to go get robbed of that opportunity and gain the country nothing! I’m no fan of China but this boycott would be of little if any effect.

We should do more than boycott the Olympics. We should stop all trade with China and encourage other countries to do the same and take up the manufacturing. Also, no future athletes should ever be allowed to participate in the Olympics for the U.S.A. without a first prior written oath to never disdain our country or flag. Any dishonor toward our country or flag should mean immediate expulsion from the team.

I voted insure because I do believe sports and politics should be separate, but in reality they have been entwined for many years. I would like to see a mandate from the US Olympic Committee that there would be no demonstration of anti-Americanism by our own athletes, and if it is violated, the athlete would be immediately sent back to the US or the country of their choice they would be more comfortable in. Banned for life from US participation in international events. I think China would try to keep our participants safe, but our participants would have to do what they need to for themselves and not “take souvenirs” or wander around on their own.

I know an athlete who trained for many years to compete in the 1980 Olympics, only to have it boycotted by President Carter. The results are devastating to the competitors and it will have zero effect on China’s actions. Use trade embargoes, tariffs or other means to voice an objection, not a sporting event. The competitors are free to boycott on an individual basis and should be encouraged to make this sacrifice on that level, but don’t prohibit them from competing. It will only build a resentment amongst the competitors for what our government has done to them.

China is a repressive, murderous dictatorship that cheats and lies it’s way to the top by stealing the products and ideas of others. These slimeball killers should not be honored by being allowed to host an international event that has the prestige of the Olympic Games. Cancel the event and hold it elsewhere next year in a place where tennis players aren’t raped by government officials then disappeared when they complain of it. Athletes should be, if they had the sense God gave a goose, very afraid of putting themselves in the power of the Chinese government, and our country’s government, such as it is now, should be aware of the political crisis that could arise by our athletes being held hostage by an aggressive and Godless dictator.

The Olympics are a farce. Ranking is greatly based on politics, sometimes even when it is blatantly wrong. So it’s impossible to separate the sports from the politics. This is true regardless of in which country they are held.
As far as the Olympics in China, if American athletes attend any Olympics, then they should attend all. To do otherwise would be making it even more political. There are no guarantees of safety anywhere.
Here’s how to send a stronger message to China than skipping the Olympics. All American politicians, celebrities, and companies should to stop promoting China and Communism and stick up for freedom.

As for that elite level of US athletes who will miss out, there are plenty of international level competitions regardless of the Olympics. I don’t think we should boycott. I think we should just be done with them all together.
