You believe there was enough testing? The organization hasn’t even said what testing was done. None of the results of whatever testing may or may not have been done have been made public.Quote:

Weird that the women actually fighting against her continue to not have any issue with it:

Guys, there's sports happening.
You gotta hand it to the right-wing (not just here, but around the world) for making a GIANT issue out of something which really isn't. :rolleyes2
Yep - U.S. getting their asses kicked by Morocco, for one. :DQuote:

The 52-year-old, who works as a mechanic in a small garage in Istanbul, first picked up a gun during a particularly frustrating divorce mediation.
His unorthodox approach – no specialty gear, no training regimen, and a wardrobe consisting of his everyday jeans and a T-shirt – has baffled professional shooters. "He just shows up, shoots a near perfect round, and then asks if there's a smoking area nearby."
After winning silver, Yusuf stood emotionless on the Olympic podium and declared, "Sharon, if you're watching this, I want my dog back."

A lot to unpack there…Quote:
