Let's be honest. With yank gun culture, is getting a gold medal in shooting, really an accomplishment!? LOL
No, sir. If you're going to be insulted if we don't win a gold medal in basketball, then you need to also be insulted if we don't win a gold medal in shooting.

Can't nobody out shoot us!!!!!!

Was just reading about this Philippine woman that won the weightlifting competition for the clean and jerk for her weight class. Beat this Chinese woman who has the world record and previous champ. Was the first gold medal for Philippines in like 100 years out sending athletes to the games. Was heartwarming seeing her emotion when she won. First time ever winning gold for your country. That's gotta be such a great feeling. She gonna be a national hero out there. :wow:

The determination on her face with the final two attempts had me hype. I didn't think she was going to get it at first but she didn't come this far to fail :wow:
