What are your thoughts on the Olympics being held in China? Have you been watching the Olympics this week? What effects will the killing of American visitors to the Olympics by a Chinese man have on the US's relationship with China?
I think its a big paradoxal mess. The Olympics is supposed to unite all the countries of the world; however, the killing of the US visitor shows just how much we are not united. Don't get me wrong, I like the opportunity it gives athletes to compete and show their abilities to the world, but this competition, in my opinion, creates more hostility b/w nations who are already hostile toward one another or who already have a strained relationship.
I watched a little of the Olympics, the tennis and swimming conmpetitions, but if it isn't football, it bores me.
