Why Was Chicago Shot-Down By The IOC?

The Committee Feared "Carrying"
Gun-Nut-Attendees Might Cause Havoc!


Customarily, the International Olympic Committee does not, and
probably will not, release reasons why 2016 Olympic host competitors
were not selected, including those for Chicago's losing bid.

But insiders are reporting that the IOC, as well as other competing
cities' committees, stressed the U.S. obsession with and easy access
to firearms as among the most compelling reasons for the Chicago turn-
down.

"We simply could not conscience the real possibility that, should
Chicago be named host city, crowds of attendees might be allowed to
openly carry deadly weapons," said an IOC member who insisted upon
anonymity.

"This was especially crucial in our decision-making because the U.S.
Supreme Court continues to grant more gun-freedoms to their citizens."

Score another negative U.S. international image among the many
attributed to the George W. Bush "administration" and its
conservative-
stacked Supreme Court!

It's apparent the gun nuts have no responses to this obviously correct
analysis.

Such as how the comparison is falacious, or how Chicago has the strictest gun
control in the country (not only for possession, but for use)?

There's been several posted around, but it's wasted breath on such an ignorant
troll as yourself.

Just suck the statist dick and smile.

The USOC is solely at fault for Chicago's rejection. To read more

Gee, actual citations of rational arguments? Where's the fun in that?

It's much more fun to make up your own quotes from uncited anonymous
sources. Then repost it verbatim under another name so you can agree
with it when no one else does. That's how the resident troll does it.
