Olympics in Beijing, why not

The Olympic games are coming up soon, and it, unlike the last in the U.S., is taking place in Beijing. A lot of people seem to think this a bad idea, including me. Lets face it, the government there is not the greatest, and after seeing how they responded to the earthquake a while back, how can we think they could possibly handle the Olympic games. Then to top it all off, I read in both the L.A. Times and the WSJ this morning, that there are going to be certain areas set up to protest, because the government is worried that it may become an issue if they riot to close to the game stadium. Not only does that seem careless, but it seems like the government there can’t take a hint. Here it is, i’ll give it to you. Not even your own country wants YOU to have the Olympics.
