Beijing Cabbies Not Allowed to Dye Hair Red

It's NOT about YOU people. Who cares whether or not YOU have natural red hair? Few to no natural Asian redheads exist in China. It's about a whole other regime governed by a whole other peoples with different social and cultural attitudes from ours. They outlaw everything in China, including losing in competition. I'm not coformfortable in countries where people are told what they can wear and look like, either; but neither am I comfortable in a group of stoners, spikers, punkers or gangstas - and I definitely don't want to travel with people who are spitting and smoking. Attend the Olympics if you are going. I won't. I disapprove of countries (Read "China") whose citizens are forced in extreme, cruel ways to not just compete, but to win. Make no mistake. Any Chinese competitors who don't keep the medals at home will be punished severely. Why we allow our athletes to compete against these unfortunates, I have no idea. The Olympics have become barbaric in attitude. If you're severely injured, the show must still go on. Break a few bones and you're still expected to compete. The Chinese will accept only death as an excuse for not winning. Wby would we want to help them support the cruelty towards their citizens. I'll stay home and keep the TV on other channels.
