Who’s been a naughty cyclist?

[Aractus]

Given that there exists a large group of cheaters in the top ranked players for quite some time, it seems atypical to focus on Armstrong. There is a pervasive culture of doping -- one that is getting lesser attention than some overly litigious fool who now is exposed for appropriate counter suits.

Don't deflect.

1. How about all the people he sued for telling the truth?
   
2. How about the insurance company he scammed?
   

Are you making a claim for that only positive effects came out of such usage?

Negative health effects are unlikely. It's not as if he was shooting up on crack. Mostly it was simply blood doping with micro-injections of EPO. If you take your blood out, put it in a fridge, and then inject it again, would you expect negative health effects?

Comparing a brutal violation of self while being unable to fight it off to the act of purposefully engaging in deceit to save one's own hide?

Nothing positive. About the act of rape being lesser or about you.

It went right over your head, I understand that.

And, Daniel, perjury? Worse than rape? Clearly you've never been friends with or known anyone who was raped, never seen what it does to them. If you had, you'd rescind that statement in a moment.

Well, perjury is an act of treason. By definition alone I believe that makes it worse.
