Being Evicted

Posted by: Expressing Opinions in olympics

How would you feel if you were evicted from your home? According to The Center on Housing Rights and Evictions about 13,000 people a month are being evicted in time for the Beijing Olympics. It estimates 1.5 million people living in Beijing will be evicted in time for the 2008 Games. These evictions are so the Chinese will have room to build Olympic facilities and remove homes which will not reflect positively on China.

    I was reading on someone’s blog the other day about how we should all support the Olympics. It’s hard to support a regime that will do stuff like the above…

    I do support the athletes 100%. I certainly couldn’t do what they do. But there’s no way on earth I’m going to say that what China is doing is OK.
