I understand and that's horrible, but what does that have to do with Olympics itself? The "supporting the gays" schtick is just getting tiring... just my two cents.

some of you guys really should stick to pop culture rather than commenting on current affairs/ politics, especially if you have no idea what you are talking about
It's a mixed situation. Yes, Russia is extremely homophobic and that should warrant us to boycott the Olympics. But, the athletes participating have been training for years and competitive events like the Olympics is part of their income.
lol yes only gaga and a small minority are against the torture and oppression of people. get those headlines indeed
Gays are a minority in society. Do you think that the majority of the U.S would support the boycott gags is proposing? Do you? What will be accomplished? It would take a lot more countries to pull out for any damage to be done and even then, I doubt Russia would turn over a new leaf in an instant.

well the point is that she's at least TRYING to voice her opinion
The people that want to go should go. The ones that don't want to go shouldn't go. It's as simple as that. But I understand that the homophobia is REAL over there. It would be great to see the US stand up for equality
