crazy that they think the olympics will still be held in summer given the virus is spreading rampant and unchecked throughout Japan...

Where theres a will, theres a way. I think they can do it somehow.

Do you hear the hate?

The anti-Japan crowd would love for the Olympics to be canceled, to be a failure, for issues to happen once the games begin.

The greatest contribution Japan can make in 2020 is not cool gadgets, robots, flying cars showing off to the world... But fighting the coroavirus, finding a vaccine, standing next to an Asian neighbor who's should be helped in a moment of need instead of discrimination, racism, this has nothing to do with Hong Kong or Taiwan, it has to do with human decency, treating people the way we would want to be treated and helped.

The sooner we can contain the virus and find a vaccine the sooner we can resume and plan for the Olympics.

Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics - a time to celebrate the gift of life. Wishing the organizers, athletes, officials and fans a jolly good time.

The Olympics have never been cancelled except for World Wars. So I doubt very much, Japan will wish to be seen to be the first to cancel outside of those prior events.

Hope all the torch runners wear gloves!
