Not only should they get a lifetime ban, but every athlete should be tested 100% of the time. There is no reason why something as huge and prestigious as the Olympics, with the kind of money it brings in, should not be doing this.
Also randomly along the year when they are training and having to tell exacty where they are at all times (so no hiding away doping & flushing them out) , as cyclists are.
Cyclism went so bad but now they’re tested really hard and often.
Sadly, consenting adults who avail and provide prostitution are unnecessarily criminalized. He’s a gross hypocrite, but he’s not gross for wanting sex. He’s also not gross for trying to pay for sex with (what he thought) was a consenting adult. Religions need to do away with celibacy stuff, it’s all nonsense anyways
Listen, this is all very funny and cool. However, does anyone find it weird to think that our tax dollars are paying a police officer to dress up in lingerie and post ads for sex on the internet in hopes of luring people in for arrest?
Wouldn’t this money be better spent providing housing, food, and social support to women actually in the business of selling themselves?
Depends. Does it actually protect kids on the internet from potential rapes or muggings? If so, then I’d love to see the cost to apprehend vs statistical decreases for these particular instances. If it’s helpful and cost for safety is right then I’m for it.
I think everyone is ok with property taxes. What homeowners hate is increasing property tax. It should be a flat rate for everyone that doesn’t increase with the exception being on non residential properties.
How is a state meant to keep up with inflation if property taxes don’t increase to compensate?
And do you mean to say that property taxes on a mansion situated on several acres should incur the same flat rate as a 1000 square foot home on a quarter acre?
If they over-dope to compete in the dopers olympics and die as a result, that’s not any different than driving without a seatbelt or motorcycling without a helmet and dying as a result. If you don’t want to risk death you can just not be stupid.
True, I think a doping league is something we could try. We just have a year or 2 of ONLY doping league, then open the clean league and have 100 % controls. But not all doping is testable, currently…
I don’t care about the Olympics themselves (I think they’re important, I am just not personally interested in catching more than highlights), but I would watch the shit out of the Dope Olympics. Dude on steroids and cocaine throwing a javelin ten miles? I’d pay to watch that.
Of course I’d also watch the Pitch-O-Mat 5000 fire balls at Wireless Joe Jackson, so I’m not anyone’s target audience except possibly Futurama’s from 20-odd years ago.
It’s already been legal to possess and smoke and grow your own since shortly after the November ballot passed. This is just the commercial licensing side finally launching.
