ITK is playing the forum clown,better the devil you know
I take your point IA, as it's clearly attention seeking.
But I do find it sad that anyone should feel it necessary to attract attention to themselves by insulting people who have overcome physical disabilities to achieve seemingly impossible feats.
I shall leave it at that.

I think ITK may actually be a 'troll'.
I have nothing against the Olympics per se but the IOC has become a giant corrupt monolith sucking up public monies that forces the winning countries to overspend on infrastructure projects that are way out off proportion to what is needed and which become white elephants.
I ocasionally visit the Sydney 2000 Olympic site if I am forced to -for large concerts..acres and acres of useless 'parks', stadiums, pools, tennis courts that are hardly used and are still being paid for.
surely they have drifted from their original purpose and should return to the way they were...virile, tanned, hunky naked young men running in fields and such

Which countries do you allege "destroy" perfectly healthy children as a precaution against them becoming amputees in later life?

In India, for example, their is still a culture of killing "normal" girls (as they rather prefer boys) - what do you think they would do with one of these ?
I seem to have ALREADY answered your point - how absurd to then ignore it and ask the same question again.
Just because YOU dont like the answer does not make the statement irrelevant.
I have already explained that some Countries destroy perfectly healthy people (in the UK for instance - over 1 million abortions since 1967 - simply because they are not convenient) - let alone not perfectly formed.
Funny enough,and excuse moi from going off the original topic,but....freaks tend to be valuable in asia,especially buddist/hindu countries where begging is a national pastime for many.
Kill the girls,but keep the freaks,in fact make them worse.
I do remember a gypsy woman in Bucharesti,and seeing her 'handler' remove a huge scab to leave a nasty open wound showing,the same open wound I've seen her with for the last 7 years...and guess what,she's a beggar with a prime spot near the university.

Don't even start me on the "para" olympics !
The very idea that people with warped, twisted and distorted bodies can be referred to as "athletes" and compete in an Olmpics is utterly absurd, and bordering on insanity.
The funny thing is that the disabled athletes will soon be stronger and faster than the able-bodied ones ('Blade Runner' Oscar Pretorious is just a taste of what is around the corner). It won't be so long before you have top athletes getting involved in 'accidents' in order that they can have the lateast bionic limb fitted etc and gain a competitive advantage.
