    I was a kid in 1996 when I met her. She had just won Gold and happened to be shooting at the same range in Socal. She let me hold her medal. Just a 6 year old back then but I still remember it.

    Kim, you are my motivation. Those who slam this sport and your accomplishments have no idea what you've done, or what it takes to keep on top of the game like you have. You are awesome. When you medal in the next Olympics, you will be the ONLY person in history to medal in 7 consecutive Olympics instead of one of 2 to do it in 6. You will do it, and maybe more.

    I love my Beretta O/U. I bought it from an 82 year old Pastor in Ohio who could no longer go hunting. He'd maintained it wonderfully and I took ownership of a gorgeous example of what Italy can produce. The gun was made in 1954 and the first time I put it to my shoulder it was clear... that gun was meant to be mine. I've had years of enjoyment from it and hope to pass it on to my niece or nephew someday.

    Congratulations Kim on an Olympic Record!!! you are an amazing woman, and as a U.S. Marine, who does a LOT of shooting, I must say you are very impressive. I would take you into battle any day. Keep up the great work, and we are rooting for you all the way!!!

    • @giobrighi9088
      @giobrighi9088 6 років тому

      Dear Alarik Wood ,
      would you like to bring the shooter into battle every day , with you ? Yes ? You would do a bad deal ! She are the incarnation of the exact opposite of what a Marine must do in battle , that is : invent , find new solutions !
      Your champion , on the conrary , has been learning for many years to regress from being human to a stupid machine , to mimic it !
      Come on warrior , stop once and think before talking nonsense !

      It was mixed gender until 1992.
      Many Olympic shooters hate the gender separation because it cheapens the victory. There are all kinds of bullshit rumors that female Olympiads use lighter loads or their guns are modified to lower recoils..All nonsense.

    Stacie Stockman , said , a year ago :
    “ KIm is a shooting machine ! “
    This is the most offensive title that can be given to a human being !
    This sport is ridiculous , rewards what is farther from the best characteristics of mankind !
    This sport rewards those who regress and become more like a machine !
    Each plate should be launched from no where , with unknown speed and unknown direction !
    Then improvisation skills would be rewarded !
    These shooters are human subspecies that mimic the machines !
    All my contempt goes to them !

      You try it. Its harder than it looks and takes great instinct. Wind affects the flight of the clays...and the clays dont only fly one way...and the changing stations put the clay flight at vastly different angles.

      +panzerken if we're talking numbers. 60% of gun violence is suicide. And look at the murder rates in other countries without gun rights, some have even more murder rates. But please understand that guns are the greatest equalizer. Criminals get their hands on guns even if theyre made illegal. Look at the Paris attacks. 100+ people dead. Banning guns will only leave law abiding citizens defenseless and if criminals are gonna get their hands on guns even if made illegal. Then might as well make it legal so the good can arm themselves as well because we all know good people wont break the law to get a gun. Only criminals would. And most of the gun violence are caused by gun free zones (chicago) and the media goes ahead and demonizes the guns when the gun free zone laws are the ones to blame for the spike in crime. Wake up dude. Our corrupt govt are just trying to disarm US so they can further push their political agenda.

    • @panzerken
      @panzerken 8 років тому

      How many western countries have higher murder rates? And suicide? How bout that nice "white " Texas NRA mom who blew away her two duaghters 2 months ago. Bunch of other case too numerous to mention.So called "nice white" families to boot. In other words not "solo" acts, murder suicides! And equalizers? Because of loose gun laws, the bad guys can equal "force multipliers" with cops and the so called "good guys". No advantage there now since thugs have same firepower. America must be one fucked up country if everybody needs a gun. Like Syria or Somalia!

    • @gx217dc
      @gx217dc 8 років тому +4

      +panzerken out of curiosity, what country are you from? I am from america and people dont get shot up on the streets like media portrays it to be. And yes gun violence is 60% suicide. You can check that out on CNN. And so what if the mother used a gun? She couldve easily used other methods like with a knife. Are we gonna start a debate on whether to ban knives next? And so what if 60% of gun violence is suicide. People can easily find other methods as well. People dont understand the basic concept of freedom and please hear me out because it's just sad how good people think they dont deserve to arm themselves against criminals. Look at every country where guns are banned. Criminals still get their hands on guns. So if criminals are gonna get guns legal or illegal, might as well make gun ownership legal so good people can arm themselves as well. You have to understand that there are social differences. You might think people having guns is crazy because you picture the people in your...

      +Gerald Ander Lee panzyken is probably a self hating American. She probably doesnt have any real knowlege or experience with firearms. She probably grew up in nice safe areas that have low crime rates and doesn't know or care that many other people experience domestic terrorism from a very real criminal element here. She probably hates anyone who isn't a Democrat. She probably doesn't know or care that some of us believe strongly in our 2nd amendment because our Government has been known to form and fund terrorist groups, arm drug cartels, and dump drugs on our streets and that those very same criminal elements they fund and support want to and have harmed our citizens. But at the same time she probably think guns are only for the police and she hopes our government will protect us 24-7.
