I'm sure the whole world noticed the US was first in shooting. A woman named Virginia, from Virginia, from a DC suburb, who goes to school and shoots for WEST Virginia, no less...

As a Fairfax Co. resident I am proud to see this young lady has excelled in an Olympic sport after just a few years training. However, I am more proud to see that she is an engineering student. As a retired computer scientist I applaud anyone who can juggle a demanding academic schedule in sciences and engineering with an avocation of Olympic caliber (no pun intended).

Nope.

No scope. They're diopter target sights.

No rest while shooting. That's to rest the rifle between shots. The guns weigh about 10 lbs.

And you didn't shoot the eyes out of 50 birds back-to-back without missing.

Liberals won't like this. A girl wins a medal for shooting!
I'm surprised they're not protesting in front of her parent's house today.

I'd really be impressed if she used her shooting skills to knock off some of these criminal niggers around here.
