Default Unfair sanctions on Olympians

I wrote an email to the committee to express my outrage for sanctioning these two young athletes for doing something that was totally legal and not immoral.

If you agree, put it in writing and send it here:

The committee should be ashamed of themselves.

Been a while Jack. Glad to see you around. I should really drop in here more often.

I completely agree, that we need to stand our ground, or surrender it to the anti's. Thank God our forefathers gave us a tool to fight with in our US Constitution, in the form of the 2nd Amendment.

BTW: Remember that threat over at RFC about the .25acp? I got that pistol running with your advice, now I have another and I am reloading for it. It's a fun way to press little crescent shaped wounds into my finger tips.

now to shoot the olympic commitee in the foot ( which may be in their mouth when the shot is fired)

i have forwarded 5 photos of the olympic bosses at my club range with weapons in hand , if athletes cannot hold lawful weapons then their bosses should be fired for doing the same

look for the media war on the lowlifes who think anyone holding a gun is bad ( unless its them )

DOUBLE-BARRELLED STANDARDS: Swim team held bonding session on gun range

What are these?
Swimming Australia took the team to a rifle range in 2007
"Shooters don't get into trouble for posing in their speedos"
D'Arcy and Monk will meet Swimming Australia this week


Read more: http://www.news.com.au/national/sull...#ixzz1xRFMHsoX



The images of the bonding session show golden girl Trickett firing an antique weapon.
In what now smacks of hypocrisy, the Australian Olympic Committee on Friday ruled the images of D'Arcy and Monk posing with the weapons had brought them into disrepute.
They ordered the swimmers leave London as soon as their events are completed at the upcoming Olympics and banned them from using social media at the Games.
But yesterday, Sullivan backed the under-siege pair.
"They haven't really done anything wrong," he said.
"Shooting is an Olympic sport and shooters don't get into trouble for posing in their Speedos." He said the D'Arcy-Monk pose, brandishing high-powered weapons in a US gun shop, was just a case of "boys being boys".

D'Arcy and Monk returned to Australia on Friday and apologised for the photos, which appeared on Facebook and Twitter before Swimming Australia ordered the swimmers to pull them down.
The 24-year-olds will meet with Swimming Australia officials this week.
Meanwhile, a sexy shooter posing for a men's magazine wearing nothing but a bikini and a rifle has been given the all clear by the AOC.
In what will also lead to accusations of double standards, the sporting body gave its blessing for shooter Lauryn Mark to strip down for Zoo Weekly magazine. AOC spokesman Mike Tancred said the governing body was not cancelling the shoot.
"She is a professional shooter, a gun is the tool of trade for her, and she treats it with the ultimate respect," Tancred said.

she'd wanna have em she's a champ swimmer ...

oh talking on the radio here about this in a hour or so

how the bosses think its ok for them to use and get pic's with guns but calls it a national disgrace if a athlete does

double standards again from our olympic committee

more blind following socialist rants , but those same socialists have pics of themselves with guns

let's see how the Australian public reacts to these double standard pushing two faced socialist pets who rant on command

i wonder how someone with such a bad history of creating debts and never paying them made it to the AOC ?? , let's see
