But Sha’carri is at home because of weed.

This paragraph in the
@BuzzFeedNews
investigation into why fencer Alen Hadzic, who is under investigation for sexual assault, is allowed to compete in the #Olympics is absolutely bonkers. I read it a couple of hours ago and can't stop thinking about it: https://buzzfeednews.com/article/briannasacks/olympics-fencers-safesport-abuse

1. That is fucked up!

You can assault women and compete, but don't threaten the Big Pharma cartel's monopoly on legal drugs. She would probably have been able to compete if she'd taken a Valium instead of smoking a joint.

2. What about Sha'Carri Richardson?

They write [co-authored by WADA's science director] that marijuana use "is not consistent with the athlete as a role model for young people around the world." So Sha'Carri gets suspended but Alen Hadzic is an acceptable role model.

3. It's a completely bizarre story

I don't know what their rules about these things are. I mean, innocent until proven guilty, sure. But if the whole situation is that disruptive, maybe leave that one at home.

4. Convicted rapist Mike Tyson is now a commericial spokesman.

I know that has nothing to do with your post, but I was filled with the same kind of rage reading it that I am every time I see one of his commercials.
