Jeremy Abbot was disqualified from the US Figure Skating Championships and banned from figure skating for pointing a finger gun at the audience at the end of his short program. We all know about the gun control debate and all the spree shootings lately, so he must have traumatized the crowd for life when he brandished his hand, shaped into a gun shape, at them. What a monster! Kids have been getting kicked out of school for this same kind of behavior, and what kind of an example would that set for our children if we allowed our sports heroes to get away with doing the same thing?
Hey, kids imitate sports figures' behavior, you know!
He was also charged with wearing dangerous blades on the bottoms of his boots, and may be charged with planning to cut people up with them.
Shame on this guy for terrorizing everyone this way!
(BTW: If you think this sounds stupid, then why not stop treating school kids like this when they are playing? They're not real guns; they're just fingers. And they're probably not even loaded.)
