A Chinese men’s hockey team led mostly by North American-born players suffered a dominating 8-0 loss at the hands of Team USA on Thursday. According to NBC Sports, Harvard University forward Sean Farrell scored the first Olympic hat trick for Team USA since Phil Kessel did so in 2014. His first goal was arguably the most impressive of the three as he beat China’s goalie, Jeremy Smith, to the top left corner toward the end of the second period. Boston University goalie Drew Commesso, the youngest starting goalie ever for the United States in the Olympics, showed no signs of nerves, stopping 29 shots en route to the shutout. Coming into the game, much was made of the Chinese men’s hockey roster. According to NBC Sports, 18 out of 25 players on the roster were born, raised or both in North America. The International Ice Hockey Federation allows players to represent a country in international play if they have lived there for at least two years and played for the country’s national team. According to ESPN, this was all part of the plan for China. It recruited American players such as Smith and fellow Jake Chelios up to four years in advance in hopes of fielding a competitive team when it hosted the Winter Games. Chelios, the son of NHL Hall of Famer Chris Chelios, agreed to change his name to “Jieke Kailiaosi” to aid Chinese fans, Firstpost reported. For the same reason, Smith agreed to go by “Jieruimi Shimisi.”

Nice to see them beat a bunch of traitors. Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen. Oh come on, playing in the Olympics for a foreign country doesn't make you a TRAITOR, if you're a citizen of that country. It just means you're the "B-Team". The A-Team is the US-Team. You didn't make it, but the Chinese will have you. My kid is a US citizen and a French citizen, both. She's a fencer. She could either fence for France or the USA. Fencing for France is harder than fencing for the US (which is pretty damned hard), so it's not helpful, but we know US fencers who fence for Israel, Mexico, Japan (it's funny when Jews fence for Japan), Hong Kong, etc. They can't make the US team, but they are good enough to make another team they qualify for. So they get to go to the games...and get beaten by the Americans. They're not TRAITORS. Come on!

The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning.
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.
