No...
No. It would be an empty gesture. IMO
For the good old American lifestyle: For the money, for the glory, and for the fun... mostly for the money.
Nice job backing up your argument you dillhole.Originally Posted by Soonerus
No. Boycotts are lame.
We wont boycott. Not unless there are mass-killings.
Now Prezzy says he will go to the opening ceremony. France's Prezzy says he aint goin.
yes, for the health of the athletes...... and, since Mexico will not be sending anyone to China, we would not want appear ungrateful to our neighbors!
Yes. If we decide to, much of the west will probably follow suit (many have already voiced the idea) and it will embarrass China on a global scale and perhaps force a change.

Is that a yellow or red ??? let us know...

True, but I really think that if we did this, we wouldn't be alone. China desperately wants to be accepted, and this kind of international shaming might do the trick. It would at least let the poor Tibetans know that there plight is known worldwide.

What is funny is, I responded "No..." with no supporting verbiage just to see if some fish would bite...mission accomplished...
no, black lung builds character.
That's because all the Mexicans that can swim are in Texas.
I'm not happy until you're not happy.
Boooo!That's because all the Mexicans that can swim are in Texas.

IMO, it won't do the trick. It will make them dig in their heels even further.
It might be the right thing to do as a gesture towards Tibet, but there's nothing we're willing to do that is going to get China to back off of Tibet.
