I’m sure that we all agree that this was a terrible accidental tragedy. What I’m asking is, if it had happened at a track in the United States, would the response be different? Would people from around the world be more apt to blame the Americans or their Olympic committee, or officials ( or anyone else ) for the accident? I don’t know, I just wonder.
The reason that I ask is that it sometimes seems that in the eyes of the world, America can’t do anything right. Am I overly sensitive?
