Five days ago,Liu Xiang suffered a career-threatening injury on his foot when he was warming up for a race in the Beijing Olympics.Thus he had to withdraw from the race to prevent further injury.For this those Chinese citizens have been calling Liu Xiang names such as "eunuch","pig" and "the greatest coward in history".One Chinese netizen even said in a forum,"Even if you die on the track,you should give it a try.Otherwise don't even bother entering the arena."Another netizen even said it was a ploy by Liu Xiang so that Liu Xiang would not continue his poor form.Now what does this show?It shows that those Chinese citizens are insensitive and unsympathetic over injuries,especially when those injuries are career-threatening.Liu Xiang's injury reminds me of an injury suffered by Eduardo six months ago,and the following video proves it:

Watch this video,it is a good reminder for you.As for those Chinese citizens who were making such mean comments about Liu Xiang,after watching this video,if an injury similar to that on this video happens to any of the football players from China,would you be making such mean comments about those football players?I believe what Liu Xiang did was right and I wish him a speedy recovery.What are your opinions about this?Please comment without bias.
