In a previous post - No Cripples Allowed - we reported on a 21 year old man named Oscar Pistorius. He is a double amputee athlete who wants a chance to compete in the Beijing Olympics. A ruling has kept him from competing because his prosthetic legs give him an unfair advantage and he has no fatigue in those extremities. Well… throw that out the window! The man half-man, half-machine is getting his chance.
Here is the [Article]. All you really need to take from it is, “The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled that the 21-year-old South African is eligible to race against able-bodied athletes, overturning a ban imposed by the International Association of Athletics Federations. CAS said the unanimous ruling goes into effect immediately.”
I do not agree with this ruling and it pisses me off.
