Boycott the Olympics

After a pretty short period of soul-searching, I’ve decided that I am definitely boycotting the Beijing Olympics this summer. China has been a perennial abuser of human rights, and this is probably the best chance anyone has had in a while to make clear their intolerance for China’s violent authoritarianism.

If you care about religious freedom, think about the Dalai Lama in exile from Tibet.

If you care about the Freedom of Speech remember Tiananman Square

If you care about the death penalty, think about all those executions.

If you care about Darfur, Boycott the Olympics.
