I'm sick of hearing about how we should all boycott these games because of the host nations political views. It's like everybody has suddenly forgotten that Russia are ONLY the host nation, and that 88 nations from all over the world are competing, and the International Olympic Committee are FRENCH and DO NOT share Russia's views (as seen in a statement about equality in last nights opening ceremony).
Athletes from all over the world have trained for years for this; dedicated their lives to it. Russian politics, however ridiculous, shouldn't even come into it. You back your country and the athletes who have trained hard to be there. And that's that.
