I have boycotted everything from China since I found out last year about bile harvesting of Asiatic Black Bears (also called Moon bears). What the Chinese Government does should scare the world. See Asiatic Black Bears Are Caged & Their Bile Harvested For Sale! for more info. Then the killing of thousands of dogs last year because a couple of people died of rabies!

And now the latest: killing thousands of cats to "clean up" (I called it a "cleansing") for the Olympics. I will NOT to read about, watch TV about, nor have anything to do with the Olympics in China. If I was an athlete I would NOT go. See Chinese Death Camps for Cats

Please join me in boycotting this barbaric, sadistic country!

Boycott China, boycott the games
boycott THE SPONSORS of the games,
and tell the sponsors WHY you are
boycotting!
There are SO many good reasons to
boycott; Tibet, Burma, human rights,
tigers, bears, ALL animals in general,
poisoned foodstuffs, poisoned PET FOOD,
lead-based paint, and the list goes on
and on.
Send a very LOUD message to China AND their
corporate sponsors in their one common
language, the only one they really seem to
understand: $$$$$$$.
Thanks, Karen.

Noted. My boycotting of any products from China continues and I am steadfastly opposing our participation in the Olympics there. I would boycott there being held many places, including here in my beloved country.

What I find most disconcerting is the Monks have a long history of non violence,if they have finally had enough it doesn't bode well for any of us,instead of everyone enjoying the advances we have seen in these last few years we are seeing less compassion in the world

I am in the apparel business and I chose not to get my products made there even if "others" strongly suggested that I should. Noted!

Exiled Tibetans in Dharamsala (India) have sought the intervention of the international community to put pressure on China to stop its crackdown in Tibet. Tibetan exiles across the globe are protesting for a free Tibet. They also called for the exiled Dalai Lama to be allowed to live in Tibet. They are demanding that the Beijing Olympic Games be stopped. The crackdown on the protests in Tibet and neighbouring Chinese provinces, which may have killed dozens of people, had sparked calls for a boycott of the Games.
China accuses the exiled leader of Tibetan Buddhists, the Dalai Lama, of orchestrating the rash of monk-led protests and rioting. Dalai Lama, however, denies masterminding the protests, which culminated last Friday in riots in Lhasa. The exiled Tibetan Government claims that so far 99 people have died in the clashes in Lhasa and other Tibetan cities. Beijing, however, says that only 13 "innocent civilians" have been killed in the violence. China said at least 10 people were burnt to death in riots in the Tibetan capital Lhasa, the fiercest pro-independence protests to have rocked the region in two decades, scarring China's image months before the Olympics. Xinhua news agency said the 10 died in the bitter clashes that erupted in the remote, mountain capital on Friday, having initially said seven. It said no foreigners died but gave few other details. "The victims are all innocent civilians and they have been burnt to death," an official with the regional government was quoted as saying.

The Chinese Government Can Try To Suppress Dissent In Tibet, But They Will Fail To Silence The Cry For Freedom.

i am not upset with any of you dear people, but at the situation of what the Chinese Dictator is getting away with on HELLISH TORTURE of even many of the Oriental Peoples, including his own! He has been ORDERING this!
So CHINA IS DOING THESE TORTURES WORSE THAN ANY ON EARTH!

ALL COUNTRIES must PROTEST! The U.N. must PROTEST! The Olympics should be called off if not moved. The CHINESE TORTURE of other Orientals even, is as Bad as the Nazis Doctors & WILL GET WORSE IN OTHER WAYS FOR SURE if we Do NOTHING!
ALL COUNTRIES MUST PROTEST, INCLUDING U.S AND ALL YOUR COUNTRIES TOO. China's 'Dictator' is the one that ordered the Organ Harvesting of the peaceful Falun Gong Practitioners in China TOO!
the organs are harvested from the practitioners while they are still alive. The practitioners are killed in the course of the organ harvesting operations or immediately thereafter. These live awake organ harvesting operations are cruel HELLISH a form of murder. Just like those animals you saw the Chinese skinning alive. See if you do not find out that the Chinese Dictator (aka:Chinese President?) ordered it, even his own Cabinent Member was practicing Falun Gong too & so nobody but the Dictator wanted to do these to this people either, they are ordered to denounce anything he says to, including any peaceful religion or spirituality he says to, or be the next ones to be killed.
The Chinese people are afraid of him and cannot admit or they will be next.
ALL COUNTRIES MUST PROTEST CHINA'S LEADERSHIP or WE ARE ALL IN BIG TROUBLE.

While the Bush administration will never allow the United States to officially boycott the Olympic Games in China, all American athletes have the right not to attend. I urge all athletes to refuse to attend. Let Bush and his cronies form an Olympic team from the CEOs of American coporations which have profitted from depriving Americans of jobs by sending those jobs to China or by stocking cheap Chinese made goods rather than American products.
FREE TIBET!

Bravo Henry. How beautifully said.

I agree with Henery. Bush Adminstration would never dare to boycot Olympic Games in China. But all Americans for that matter all people of the world should boycot dictorial attititude of China and chinese goods.

I think what's also sad here is you know that the olympics will go on and many people will watch from their comfortable couches as if none of this matters personally to them. The people don't realize how big of an impact we all could make if we agreed in numbers. ~~ sigh ~~
