Is the IOC aware of the emboldening power of firearms ?
Advertisements [?]
Having only been aware of this pshycological phenomenon for a short time , I had never really worried much about it before . And so with my new found knowledge in hand I observed the overtly militaristic biathlon event last night . Clenching the upholstery tightly with my sphincter ,I waited for one of the contestants to snap and give in to the urge to pivot on their heel and spray fire the spectators and rival competitors from the hip .

If it hasn't happened before , it's only a matter of time . I can only imagine the shattering disappointment one might feel after all the years of training only to suffer the agony of de feet and all the while having such easy access to a sniper rifle . At the minimum they should dole the cartridges out one at a time like a turkey shoot , lest it turn into one .


Come to think of it , I wasnt too impressed with the event myself , so if they dumped it for dead goat polo .....Hey ! I wouldnt complain about that at all !
