For those of you who can't tell what these Spanish basketball players are doing, then allow me to explain. They are making 'Chinese' slanted eyes at the camera for a Li-Ming ad in Spain.
According to the players it wasn't a sign of disrespect. But how can it not be? This is one of the oldest and simpliest ways to insult the proud people of China! The players since this photo was leaked across the globe have pretty much ignored it or said a few off hand remarks about it being a small thing and, get this, they apologize for it.
You know Spain--sorry's only get you so far! I think they should beg the Chinese for forgiveness at the start of their next game or all the fans should pelt them with eggs!
Racism should not be welcomed in any way, shape, or form at the Olympics! Give me a Hell Yeah if you support me!
