  1. What do you think of the IOC trying to get an exemption from the Italian
    law which hands out prison terms for doping offenses? Personally, I
    think if you're an "athlete" using performance enhancing drugs, you
    should stay home from the Olympics if you don't want to go to jail.

    Thats what the exemption was for? I actually misunderstood the news, as I
    was under the asumption that they wanted to exempt them from actually having
    to be drug free, which made no sence.

    I think that the law is the law. I think there might have been an underlying
    reason for picking Italy.

    <<SNIP SIG>>

    Interesting question. It seemingly forces one to accept that a doping
    athlete is victimizing someone ***in addition to themselves***.

    You do not need a weapon to injure or damage someone. You can do so
    through force and/or FRAUD.

    We may get many points of view on this one, given cultural
    sensibilities about justice.
