    Of course she is from Texas. The best jurisdictions support and reward the best based on talent and not politics.

    Oleksiak tied her for gold which was a fitting ending to such worthy competitors. Oleksiak has a chance to be a Phelps Jr. on the womans side if she commits to chasing the record books over her career.

    The US Olympic team receives absolutely no government support so the 'jurisdiction' comment is misplaced. Simone was supported by individual, organizational, and corporate donations from all over the USA.

    Pssst don't mess with the left's thinking. They can't handle the fact that an African-American from Texas with private, not Gov., support won. Because we are all Racists Greedy bastards here.

    Good on her for her win. And for a snappy answer to a reporters question to whether she's going to be the next Michael Phelps: "No, I'm the first Simone".

    My other idea was to write down random lyrics from *Heart songs at him every time he starts going on about the cops. These are the only ways, i.e. full-blown mockery, with which I know how to deal with someone like that. 8)

    * I randomly chose Heart out of thin air. It's not supposed to make any sense, which is quite fitting to the entire karma of this "RCMP ruined my life!" thing going on here
