Image The Bareback Olympics

In the wake of several citizens and a few nations preoccupied with human rights and their collective disdain for China holding the XXIX Olympiad, we thought of holding an alternative – Urban Olympics 2008. In our Games we’d play capture the Torch Bearer – none of this mamsy pamsy dousing the flame, as several disgruntled human rights activists have attempted to do. English

Následujíc několik občanů a pár národů zabývajících se lidskými právy a jejich společné opovržení Čínou, jakožto pořadatelem 29. Olympijských her, vymysleli jsme alternativu – Městskou Olympiádu 2008. Součástí našich her by bylo chytání Světlonoše – žádné neohrabané hašení ohně, o které se už pokusila hrstka zhrzených aktivistů v boji za lidská práva. České

Im Fahrwasser einiger Staatsbürger und einiger Nationen, die voreingenommen sind von den Menschenrechten und und in ihrer Abneigung daß China die XXIX Olympiade abhält, dachten wir daran, eine Alternative abzuhalten – die Städtischen Olympischen Spiele 2008. Wir würden den Fackelträger gefangennehmen – nichts von diesem kindischen Flammelöschen, wie einige verärgerte Menschenrechtsaktivisten es versucht haben. Deutsch
