I was shocked, shocked I tell you, to hear some actual anger expressed on NPR yesterday afternoon. At issue was whether a boycott of some sort should be undertaken against the Chinese Olympic Games due to China's terrible human rights violations. In one corner was Anita DeFrantz, an U.S. rower who couldn't participate in the 1980 Olympic Games because the United States boycotted the Games in Moscow that year. And in the other corner is Canadian human rights lawyer David Kilgour.
Sit back, listen to the story and hear the sparks fly.
