Olympians Forced to Keep Their Mouths Shut About Politics

Olympic athletes can travel to Beijing only if they first sign contracts stating they won’t say bad things about China’s dismal human rights record. This includes dragging women late in pregnancy to abortion mills and killing the unborn baby, all against their wishes. It’s part of their aggressive, Neanderthal method of curbing China’s growing population. The US Government is warning all American visitors their rooms and bags could be subject to monitoring and inspection at any time without their knowledge. And Bibles are a big no-no. Only one per traveler allowed. Violators will be put on the first plane home. If I went to Beijing this summer, my stubborn German heritage would likely get me into the unapproved story gathering areas and sent home early.
