And personalty I think it would be counterproductive. It would be much better to have the athletes there with some of them speaking out and also if there is a public protest by the gay community and supporters there at the time it would get world wide attention with the games on.

But I'm glad she is out, and I hope she is visible during the games. I really would love to see Pussy Riot pull off some kind of public performance. That would be awesome.
