Give it a frakking rest already.
Everyone’s in a big stink ball because some professional athletes —
specifically baseball players, this time — are using steroids to
enhance their performance. Tissy-fit time. Ah, lawdy! Wotta we gwine to
do! Shoot ’em!
I personally don’t give a flying frak whether any professional athlete
uses or does not use steroids or any other drug. If he or she wants to
frak up his or her body and suffer the long-term negative consequences
that attend doing stupid things, that’s no skin off my...baseballs. If
using steroids somehow fails to preserve the “purity” of sports while
scientifically programmed nutrition and exercise and equipment do not
sully the activity, then let athletes form different leagues: have one
where drugs of any kind — including aspirin and what not — are strictly
prohibited; have another set of teams or competitions where you can
ingest or shoot whatever damn thing you want into your body.
Your body, your choice. Right?
Regardless of whether any particular sporting event or team wants to
ban steroid use or disqualify or fire those who use such drugs, idiotic
Congressional thugs
have zero business holding hearings promising to “fix” the situation.
Give me a frakkin’ break! Political asses have a lot of damned gall
getting all self-righteous and holier-than-thou about a issue that
violates no one’s rights and certainly should not be a criminal
offense. When Congress and its hypocritical allies are murdering
hundreds of thousands abroad as “collateral damage”; when they are
imprisoning millions of Americans for smoking or drinking or swallowing
some substance these sanctimonious fools tell us is “bad”; when they
steal trillions of dollars of our money, disobey their oaths to uphold
and defend the Constitution, and expect — and far worse,
receive!
— the support of most citizens for these outrageous, immoral, and
criminal acts; neither they nor anyone else has the right or moral
authority to lecture or throw into jail anyone. At all.
But don’t get me started...
