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.

Pity you didn't leave it there.

Do you actually know what a paraplegic is?

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 ?

Quite apart from the fact that your point is completely irrelevant, your choice of the words "one of these" - is callous in the extreme. "These" are people. Not objects. Your words would suggest you seek to dehumanise them. I know none of "these people". But I'm willing to bet my shirt that very few of them betray such a lack of humanity as you do. I've done something this evening I have never done before and reported your posting. You should be ashamed. I'll bet you're not.

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

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.

OK, You're clearly correct. But you might have been clearer in your original posting, in which you appeared to be suggesting that you believed that old lie about Indians "preferring boys". As I'm now fully armed with the knowledge that this is just a cover for their real activities - and they are taking the rather draconian steps they are in order to save some overworked Indian surgeon the job of removing a limb or two from the girls at some unspecified later date - I'm perfectly happy to admit that you've got it in one.

And you claim that I'm ignoring what other people write? It's a waste of time to state that, yet again, you are moving the goalposts. I don't believe you have any goalposts to move. All you have is a bunch of insults aimed at an ever growing list of people from the comfort and safety of the internet.

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.

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.

Also, see this : spectrum.ieee.org/biomedical/bionics/goo...ir-hello-exoskeleton

Which tends to blow the whole point of the Olympics, does it not ?
