Forgiving Lance Armsrtong

In the article "Give Lance another chance?" CNN asks wether views should give Lance Armstrong for using perfomance-enhanced drugs.There are people who agree to forgive and others who don't. Frida Ghitis says that Lance has a chance to redeem himself.

She says "His dept and atonement are not limited to the cycling or to sports." Randy Cohen said that all bigtime cyclist should doped confess. "If many cycling fans are right, most of the top riders engaged in doping," said Randy Cohen.

Roxanne Jones said he's not trustworthy. She commented "No, gets no second change from me. There are to many reasons to question his apology."

Kevin Powells said that we all have flaws. He stated" So, yes I do think anyone can be redeemed, and should another chance if he shows true remorse for his bad deeds."Shawn Klein says that cooperation can reduce a ban for lifteime.

Klein said" If Armstrong is sincerely contrite and forthright in his apology, most prople, including myself, will forgive him for his use of prohibited drugs."Everbody maskes mistakes. We're human we are inclined to mess up.

 Lance Armstrong should be forgiven but he doesnt need to back in cycling. I agree with Kevin Powells when he says" But I am not a here to judge nor cinvist him." People who judge are people who made the biggest mistakes in life.

I often make mistakes in life and would want to be forgiven for them. As long as we recognize our mistakes and want to be forgiven from our hearts we should be forgiven. Lance Armstong deserve forgiveness.

  1. You make some good points, but should we continue to respect him, listen to him, treat him like a celebrity? Do you fear that his apology is not sincere and is really all about trying to get respect back in people's eyes? 95
