Comments on: The Olympic Torch – Two Wrongs Don’t Make A Right http://myradicalblogs.com/index.php/2008/04/19/the-olympic-torch-two-wrongs-dont-make-a-right/ If I offend anyone - tough Sun, 12 Jun 2011 16:31:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Samuel Wright http://myradicalblogs.com/index.php/2008/04/19/the-olympic-torch-two-wrongs-dont-make-a-right/comment-page-1/#comment-1808 Samuel Wright Tue, 06 May 2008 00:11:08 +0000 http://myradicalblogs.com/index.php/2008/04/19/the-olympic-torch-two-wrongs-dont-make-a-right/#comment-1808 Amen... This kind of goes along with the old adage, "Hate the Sin, Love the Sinner." We cannot say that the Olympic games might not open the eyes of enough people that maybe things will start to change in China. You have to start somewhere, and perhaps the Olympics are it. Thinking that molesting the symbol of the Olympics, the torch, will somehow rally people against China is foolish. It just comes off looking like people being petty. The only thing that they are doing for me is make me want to tell them to sit and spin on their "Free Tibet" shirts.

I completely agree with you of course, but evidently there are those people who see this kind of action as 'sacrificing for the greater good'.... and don't even get me started on that topic.

There's a right way and a wrong way to protest. I’m with you on this one. There’s a right way and a wrong way to protest.
