it occurred to me while watching olympic trap shooting this past weekend…

there were no americans in the final.

how can a nation that has the most recreational weapons in the world and seemingly prides itself on blind adherence to a certain amendment NOT HAVE ANYONE THAT CAN SHOOT WELL?

if i have to live through the NRA and sean hannity and some of my friends and, and…  ugh.  we cannot even shoot strait.

the dude that won, BTW, was from the czech republic and he went 25-25 in the last round.

i am also a big fan of “tradition” — applied to just about anything — but…  “trap shooting” is an activity.  not a sport.  no matter how long it has been an olympic event.
