Do you agree with people protesting the 2008 summer Olympics in China, or do you think politics shouldn't play a role in the Olympics?

Three people protesting China's human rights record and the impending arrival of the Olympic torch climbed up the Golden Gate Bridge and tied the Tibetan flag and two banners to its cables. The banners read "One World One Dream. Free Tibet" and "Free Tibet." The torch relay is scheduled for Wednesday in San Francisco, its only North American stop. Its path around the globe already has been marked by protests against China's policies toward Tibet and Sudan. In Paris, organizers canceled the final leg of the Olympic run after chaotic protests, snuffing out the torch and putting it aboard a bus.
