Boycott the Olympics !!!
Ok... let's boycott Sochi and move it to Vancouver ..... whoops what about aboriginal issues in Canada, United States .. nows there's a cauldron of injustices ... pick one!, ( the US dropped the 1976 Olympics because the taxpayers protested in Colorado) Britain ... no snow and I'm sure we can find something there too and they foot the bill for the Summer Games. I've got it ... the Vatican ...... well that might not work either. Why don't we just attend and quietly wear a rainbow flag patches on ALL uniforms ( parade, casual and competition). No press releases, no marches, no bravo ... do you think anyone would notice ... damn rights they would. Remember how little the boycott of the 1980 Olympics in Moscow did in relation to the Russian invasion of Afghanistan.
