Racist East Texas home of David Koresh cheats kid out of Gold medal [View All]

I want to file this as a :wtf: moment?
There are so many things wrong with this scenario--but obviously the powers-that-be in that twisted racist redneck fucktown didn't want this particular girl winning.:mad:

DETROIT — For 45 minutes, Detroit sprinter Kyetta Lewis celebrated her gold medal finish in the 100-meter dash in the Region III Track and Field Meet at Palestine High on May 16. But almost as quickly as she sprinted to a first-place finish, her gold was taken away following a controversial decision to re-run the race.

Following a long rain delay, it was announced that both the boys and girls 100-meter races were going to be re-run because of weather conditions when the races were originally run. According to Detroit track coach Dee Evans, neither she nor Lewis were notified of the re-run until just a few minutes before the re-run.

“If the weather had been that bad, then they should not have run the race in the first place,” said Evans, still fuming days later because of the re-run. “Kyetta had no time to get warmed up and, to make it worse, they (track officials) were telling me that a Dallas Gateway girl was going to be allowed to run again after she was disqualified in the first race.”

Dallas Gateway’s Taylor Johnson was in fact disqualified during the first race because of a false start, while Lewis clocked a 12.53 to win that race.
