We don't need idiots on our national team - we have done well in the past without them. As for our medal count in swimming, I think we have done quite well over the years.

Splain this to me Lucy: if both those guys were sooooo bad why were they still on the team?
Why the sudden OUTRAGE because of a facebook picture of them posing with a couple guns in a gun shop?
Does holding a gun = idiot in your world? That's what it sounds like.
Evidently all that other bad behavior wasn't enough to get them kicked off the Olympic team but posing with a gun is.

The Sydney Daily Telegraph was among the Aussie newspapers to question the decision of the young men. On its Twitter account, the newspaper asked, "Are you offended by this photograph of Nick D'Arcy and Kenrick Monk in a US gun shop?"

If people are "OFFENDED" by a picture of two men holding shotguns and a pistol in a California gun shop, then they are pussies. Simple as that.
Now I'd venture to guess that not everyone in the country is offended and so not everyone is a pussy down there, lust like not everyone here lives in frisco or the PNW
