They hated her for all of those things before she chose to fight dirty. And that made hating her after much easier and more satisfying. She fought dirty because the country and her life had told her that the only person looking out for her was herself. And while what she did was wrong, she was right about that. No one was on Tonya's side except Tonya even BEFORE this happened.

You ask who she was representing at the Olympics and that shows a fundamental misunderstanding of people in her position. She was absolutely representing herself, her only chance. That gold medal wasn't for honor/glory, it was going to be freedom.

And once again I never said sympathy, I said empathy. They aren't the same thing.[/quote]

What? The country has made her twice national champion. World medalist.  Olympic medalist (which 4th place is considered to be).  Do you realize how much free stuff, how many breaks, how many resources she has received from USFSA at that point? You think anyone makes it to these heights straight outta trailer park without massive infusion of support?

Stop with the sob story. Learn the facts. [/quote]

You keep calling Harding an Olympic medalist.  Your stupid is showing.  They don’t give pewter medals to 4th place at the Olympics.[/quote]

It is customary to refer to the 4th place finisher as a pewter medalist. It's tradition. [/quote]

Nationals yes.  Worlds sometimes.  Olympics no.

You.are.wrong. (And ridiculous for calling Tonya Harding an Olympic medalist.)[/quote]
