Americans worship guns, not train how to use them
Are aim is only good when kids are involved.
You’re thinking of shootings
Spray and pray with a semi automatic is unfortunately not an Olympic sport.
Ah yes, the sport of shooting guns
What do you mean with that comment?
That it’s not a sport
Of course it’s a sport. Multiple sports even. It takes skill, training and effort to be good at shooting. There are many different shooting sports.
Of course just blindly firing a weapon is not a sport itself. Just as blindly kicking a ball is no sport.
Why do you think shooting is no sport?
If the only reason you’re sweating is because you’re out in the sun then I’m sorry, that’s not a sport, just like chess is not a sport even though it requires skills, training and effort.
I’m sorry not every sport is pure ugga bugga, ape strong, and some instead require brain skills or precision.
Should they be considered sports then?
noun plural noun: sports 1. an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. “team sports such as baseball and soccer”
Is archery not a sport then? Or say, golf?
Someone has never pulled a bowstring before
It does require phisical skill. You have to aim, perfect hand eye coordination, muscle memory, breath control. A sport doesn’t require a full body workout, if it did than bob sleighing or dressage or table tennis wouldn’t be sports either. Sport is about physical fitness but also about teamwork, competition, perseverance and much more.
It’s like saying deathmetal isn’t music, because you can’t understand the words they sing.
I see we’re gatekeeping sports now lol
To be fair, people call chess a sport, and then there’s e-sports. Neither fit with the definition of physical exertion.
If Alexis Lagan and Katelyn Abeln can compete 1v1 in the same category then I’m sorry to inform you that physical fitness isn’t a criteria for whatever the competition is and we’re not talking about a sport.
shooting, darts, snooker, curling, boules, golf, archery, driving/car racing, horse riding, sailing, luge/skeleton, croquet, motorboat racing, table tennis, weight lifting, gliding, skiing, alpinism, ballooning, chess, firefighting, cannon shooting, kite flying, pigeon racing, military patrol, dog-sled racing, bridge, lifeguarding, scuba diving have all been part of modern day Olympics.
And of this list there’s a whole bunch of stuff that isn’t a sport.
Unless you consider that painting is a sport? Because that was in the Olympics as well!
You clearly haven’t even bothered to watch it to see how dumb your comment is.
Can’t believe how exhausted they look! I feel the same way after spending the day sitting in my chair working an office job, maybe I should start calling that a sport!
